I’ve always been of the mind that #web3 was beyond vaporware, it was vacuumous, a meaningless expression to coin a new brand of monetizating everything on the Internet, in the cheapest way conceivable.

There is nothing wrong with #web2. The idea of any sort of web3 or #web4 or #web5 can only exist or propogate on the back of a successful and thriving web2.

It’s almost embarrassing how many people tried to fight tooth and nail for NFTs and the #metaverse that simply… moved onto the next grift.

Do I think #nostr or #BlueSky will create the foundation of whatever “web5” is supposed to be? Of course not.

As long as web2 works for 99% of the users of the Internet, and until it becomes nonfunctional, there will be no serious migration or adaptation of any web sequel.
