Indeed. As long as extractive forces continue to prevail, slowcore approaches will be disadvantaged. I'm optimistic about the potential of web3, but we still have a long way to go. It doesn't help that there's so much talk about the collective benefits of "hard work," while ignoring or downplaying the personal cost.
