@BoomerSan, I didn’t write the article, I’m just sharing it as it’s an interesting read.

=)

@Shishimaru, what do you use instead?

(The article notes that Firefox is going to continue to support a wide ranger of ad-blocking, while Chrome is not.)

I agree, in that whether of not it’s successful or even if it’s just another corp grabbing for money/data/whatever, it will be an iteration of the decentralised web concept taking hold in the imagination of those who can define the web into the future.

It strikes me as just a cash grab meant to boost the image of Bitcoin

It wouldn’t surprise me if you were proven right on that. Still, it’s a positive sign when a ‘mainstream voice’ can talks in terms of decentralised platforms. It’s a part of the overall evolution of the web. I guess we’ll wait and see if anything good comes of it.

These guys like Dorsey, Zuckerberg, etc. always have these neoliberal delusions

You might be right. I’m happy to give them the benefit of the doubt, at least to start with. It is possible they have learnt and changed over time. I guess we’ll see how Dorsey plays this one.

this is totally going to go over well

Yeah, could be a disaster! 😂
