There's room for both, but @leopastel is absolutely right. In a bid to shut down a few bad apple grifters, public goods funders like gitcoin and optimism have all but completely blocked off funding to tons of artists, creators and educators (aka culture creators) in the space and forced them to go back to more traditional (and much less credibly neutral) sources of funding.

Amen - optimism felt really good for a second but lately focus has shifted away from cool folks imo

I’d be curious to find out more, @leopastel . A lot of platforms end up implementing blanket policies to prevent Sybil attacks, which end up as amplified bureaucratic machines. cc @sheldrake

@xenothales
this is the exact condition that Remilia has been fighting. Love them or hate them, they're on the front lines against centralized, insider cabals like @opensea and @base. Def leads to situations like the one pictured, but such is the base violence necessary for change.
