I’ve got ideas for six different zines but won’t use neither protocol because of these limitations :(

Immutable posts are good for some use cases, but they have limitations: - You can’t fix dead links (big problem nowadays) - You can’t correct silly mistakes such as typos - You can’t extend the post with a good thought that came after you’ve published; instead you’re forced to create another post (messy)

If Farcaster or Lens Protocol allowed you to edit the post after it's been published while also retaining a history of revisions, that would create an incentive to use them as a publishing platform as opposed to just social media. Would make it easier to start a personal blog, an internet zine, or a hobby website.

I agree, however I also can’t shake off the feeling that it’s precisely moving away from aspirational things that created the increasingly unstable world in the first place. In other words, this is a downward spiral.

Exactly. By its very nature, meta-level ideology cannot be enacted directly, only by the concrete, object-level representations informed by it. One could say the problem is stated backwards.

Most people find it easier to comprehend object-level solutions. Abstraction requires generalization, which is more costly, cognitively speaking. This affects the propagation of attitudes and ideas.
