3.0's about blockchain; the problem you're describing is like, late-stage 2.0. not to defend the app fetish or advocate for 3.0 by any means, lord no

It's even more perplexing than that... One version of Web 3.0 is the crypto fantasy of being nickel-and-dimed for every single little thing. There's another, older Web 3.0 concept proposed by Tim Berners-Lee called the semantic web.

the semantic web is cool as hell. Linked data is crazy useful for old school web surfing and stumbling upon neat stuff.

ur so right; at the same time, locked-down, ad-ridden apps are a very low-effort way for lazy developers to cram as much perceived value into blockchain as possible without actually benefiting consumers

this meme addresses a symptom of web 3.0 rather than the root cause or definition

yeahhhh you're right, i get what you mean
