    I am literally making a mod for Skyrim right now lol. Sometimes it's just nice to make things.

    Hell, even going off of Skyrim I'd say the whole modding community is proof that people will collaborate to create a larger piece of art, or just make something by themselves.

        Alienation has been so naturalized people have forgotten that "Sometimes it’s just nice to make things"

      All the worthwhile things I contributed to were completely without any monetary compensation just out of passion.

      proof that people will collaborate to create a larger piece of art, or just make something by themselves.

      Heck, even hexbear is an example of this.

        Shit, whole operating systems are built on free collaboration. Or look at Wikipedia, which despite its issues is a huge step up from all prior encyclopedias.

        I have some reservations about how well this arrangement would work on more physical projects (it's hard to imagine city waterworks or public transit working on a purely volunteer, bottom-up basis), but it's clear that there's enormous untapped potential there.

      It's not a creative endeavor in the same way, but the speedrunning community is also a really good example
