@tealturtle the bottom line is you can make a lot more money selling NFTs. For whatever reason this ended up being the way that people want to pay you. > more directly support the artistsjust not true, I don't know where this comes from. I can sell NFTs from my own website and have no middleman. If you want to list them on OpenSea.io, they will take a cut, but you can set it up so you get a cut _every time_ the piece is sold again.> look at this shitthere are tons of good nfts in addition to the algorithmic shit
-
@tealturtle btw> bad for the environmentbasically true, but comparisons to online payments are hard to make because crypto energy use is pretty visible, but the true cost of online payments are not known because we ignore externalities.

@Moon @tealturtle but can do commissions with digital currencies, though, without enforcing the "digital object" blech
-
@Moon @tealturtle mmm, well here kinda do wish it's not so / that they're not popular though, because of XXwould be nice to see something like a get-commissions! site, and maybe can even have place an artist shows off a recent work and others can donate too, and shows "person Y donated X to person Z because picture 〇〇 was cool!" and have all the good parts without the "digital object" blech

@shmibs @tealturtle I don't have anything against commissions, they're great and I pay for them myself. NFT mostly just another way to get paid that happens to be popular right now.
-
@Moon @tealturtle save for parts it does though, mmm, like the "reselling", and can become used by large companies for legitimising making things become law...
-
@shmibs @tealturtle in practice the ownership doesn't mean much, but i understand your point.
-
@Moon sorry XXgood person is you, just here worries too much this stuff
-
@shmibs @tealturtle Well you're right, words matter and that is a concern.
