@rysiek: This means that this time some influencers did not sell out for money. And that's a good sign. Lesson learned, I guess.

@jaye our collective memory seems to be, yes. Partially because we desperately lack solid media outlets that put things in perspective, provide context, and ask tough questions. There are of course notable exceptions, but not nearly enough these days.

@rysiek True! That’s why COVID lockdown feels like a big blur.

@jaye the whole society seems to have gotten a pretty bad case of Long COVID.

@rysiek In my head, NFT always stood for no fucking thanks.

@rysiek Maybe I'm just thinking of an older era of capitalism, but what happened to companies actually making products and services that consumers want? And spending money on innovation in order to have offerings that are superior to the competition? The prevailing attitude (at least in Big Tech) seems to be "we're shoving this down your throat whether you like it or not."
