Although Apple now has to allow alternative browsers to ship their engines in the EU, they actually set out ridiculous conditions for browser vendors to be able to do so. Therefore, as of now, none have done it.
This is malicious compliance from Apple to try and make the law ineffective.
It'll get done sooner than later, that's money just left on the table right now for EU browser makers. And the enforcement of the DMA correcting Apple's most obvious malicious compliance has been swift (backtracking on EU PWAs).
Clearly no as Midjourney is working on a web UI that'll be out this year. Personally, I'm turned off by Discord's UX and one of the main reasons I don't use midjourney.
Have you checked POAP (Proof of attendance Protocol)? poap.xyz 5M mint, one the most used protocol, everything is free. Look for it on twitter and you will go nuts.
It's an ERC-721 compatible token, free to create, free to mint and collect
POAP stands for Proof of Attendance Protocol
— POAPs are NFTs that function of digital badges to prove you attended an event
— Using POAPs benefits event organizers by creating a direct line of communication with attendees, allowing more interactive, more responsive events and a more reliable way of building relationships with guests and followers
— POAPs benefit individuals by creating a completely personalized story of a person’s life, linking them with moments in time without sharing any data with big centralized platforms
That sounds objectively much worse than what we have now.

Save your ticket stub. Buy a t-shirt from the event. It's not even valid proof if the event organizer can hand them out to anyone.

How does an NFT work better than emails/organizing website?

Oh good, so instead of posting things on facebook, now facebook can just read the public chain to get that automatically. Brilliant.
"That sounds objectively much worse than what we have now."
I love the nft haters who think they're sounding smart but sound like absolute morons to anyone who's done at least a few hours of oBjEcTiVe research into the space. And normally I'd take the time to educate but with attitude like this and a made up mind, nah hfsp.
I simply addressed each of the points using basic observations. I'm approaching this in a good faith as per HN guidelines.
It doesn't take hours of reading academic/white papers or hours of research to evaluate this at a surface level. (And if it does, why on earth would I trust it over traditional methods I can understand?)
If someone was trying to say a pile of dog poo was a great solution to the problems described, I'd say have the same response (granted a shorted one.)
If you want to people to actually use and understand and use this technology, then you gotta take some actions towards that. If you can't actually "sell" a fix to an actual problem using these objective facts, then maybe you should go back to the drawing board and come up with a better idea.
Or I guess just stay on your bubble and stew about it if that's what you want.
(So that's not a dumb dismissal: no really, who cares? Who wants to do these things, what value are they deriving from it, why does the user want to bother with this overhead, and who pays for it?)
Will be programming an email for next week :)
