Why do you mint free/low-cost NFTs? 

Is it a 'why not' thing? just enjoy collecting? or something else?

Fatigued by it all.
- If I want to support an artist I'll reluctantly mint knowing they don't get 100% of the 'free' fee
- If I think the nft may be used as a gate for future utility
- If there's some speculative value

Ownership, esp. a 'free' OE, seems kinda silly if one if doing it for the culture. Signatures ftw.

Right?!
It's a step in the right direction for sure!
 But, it's opaque and likely overly extractive (hard to see) even at what is it somewhere between 28% - 42%? Much better than nothing 👏 but as an industry we still have work to do.

protocol rewards to artists being far less than 100% is an interesting parallel to high take rates by platforms
