It's definitely a large uphill battle and people don't have a lot of extra money, so they're going to gravitate towards free services where they are the product. I don't know of an easy solution, beyond hoping it catches on, because those services being offered are unique or better.
Discussion
I guess there is a big question what can these services offer, that is unique, hard to copy, or even big tech does not want to copy.
What’s wrong with being the product AND having choice?
People WANT their data bought and sold. It’s like internet poop, that they leave for all the internet machinery to scoop up and make use of. As long as it’s freely available, unrestricted for all “machines” to access and use… so what?
So why NOT sell targeted ads on Nostr clients?
You don’t have to have “targeted” ads on #nostr. You can serve up ads related to Beef & #Bitcoin and their respective accessories and products and you hit 80% of the market.
I don’t want my data to be sold
But if you use the internet AT ALL these days, you have already consented. And you have benefitted.
Oh I know its being shared and I still dont like it and never will. Those “benefits” are too small for me to be considered a plus. To the contrary, its creepy as fuck. I search for things myself. Lose the ago following you around and your mind will be less polluted by dopamine injections. Be as random as possible, make the advertisers pay more, make them look for ghosts. If they wanna pay, pay me a salary for my data.
Also, you are not forced to use free tech giants where you are the product.
