Ingrid Burrington on Nostr: Feel like an important but often unsaid aspect of critiques of decentralized protocol ...
Feel like an important but often unsaid aspect of critiques of decentralized protocol stuff is that centralization better facilitates celebrity/visibility and that some people want that. I say this as someone who achieved niche visibility on Twitter for a specialization and benefitted, I appreciate why people want it--often I want it! But there's shame about admitting to wanting celebrity that makes people go in circles w arguments against decentralization.
