Gregory's Server@cautionwip @darius No, not literally “infinite”, but the scarcity of current virtual spaces is definitely artificially imposed.

 @cautionwip @darius I like your notion of bringing the federation model to the metaverse — let each person run their own space, interoperable with everyone else’s.  @michaelgemar @darius It’s honestly going back to basics. The web used to be made up of tens of thousands of sites with a variety of services, content, pricing models, etc… Big Tech has consolidated everything into a few sites that try to do everything and limit personal expression in service to supposed convenience and false economies of scale. I’m hopeful that the slow but steady adoption of ActivityPub will have a positive effect on this trend. I’m probably naïve, but so be it. :) |
@michaelgemar @darius Oh for sure, sorry if it came across as suggesting they aren’t using scarcity as a way of justifying the pricing. Definitely not my intention. I’m just saying there are technical limitations for any of those services that mean their own “metaverse” can’t be considered an infinite resource.
