It’s not a problem limited to Jack or the tech industry. So many companies where the people who contributed funding got more attention than the ones doing the work. I’ve yet to see accolades and blame distributed fairly.
Discussion
you’re right, but it doesn’t mean it’s a good thing. we can talk about how it’s not okay and still acknowledge it happens everywhere.
It’s not ok. But some people are content to be rewarded by the work alone. Public accolades and attention can be uncomfortable. The public love to put people on a pedestal just to kick it out from under them. I don’t particularly understand that urge or where it originates. When I see people who aren’t getting what I feel is their due for their work, I feel it’s best to let them know personally. I may also share publicly how their work impacted me. Instead of trying to take on the hive mind as whole. Which feels like a fools errand to me.
well the whole point of nostr is that no one can or should take that pedestal and take credit. i don’t think saying that is a bad thing or a hive mindset. it’s simply what the protocol was made for.
i agree that the media uses jack to have a face to the protocol, but it doesn’t mean that that should be the norm. i think if someone wants what you described, they should just go back to twitter bc they’re not ready for nostr yet.
I think I didn’t communicate clearly. I’m not a fan of putting people on pedestals and the tortuous cycle you see repeating of build them up to tear them down. I consider that part of the hive mindset. I don’t want to go on Twitter or anywhere else and rage against the hive mind. I feel like it’s an inefficient use of my time. I’d rather build towards something that is intrinsically different. I think we can just agree we’re both against that mindset and that we’d rather not see it here. So what do we do personally to create a different culture? That’s the discussion I think we should be having.
ahhh i apologize for misconstruing your words darling.
i’m going to think on your questions and get back when i’m able to cohesively respond and not look like an idiot.
Merci de plus il n'est qu'un tout *petit* sur plusieurs autres à découvrir... hélas cela finit par tourner sur une personne et fort embêtant....autant de textes ça finit par dépasser ou centrer sur l'objet de ces notes fort longues 🤣🫂
