I mean stuff like Meta, crypto and all that obvious scam shit that rich people seem to be diving dick first into lately.
Zuck supposedly spent BILLIONS on Meta, and when you look at the result, yeah, it's clear that the money wasn't being spent on the actual product. So where did that money really go?
Or are billionaires just really that bad with money and ideas?
Something is sus about just how stupid with their money they've become. I mean, they were always stupid, but when you have that much money and power you have to be a special kind of inept to do what Zuck and Musk have been doing to their companies.
they'd either have to nix user-uploaded avatars or face the legal battles it would bring -- either way, it undermines the point of buying it in the first place
Nah, allow users to freely upload their own avatars, just open a marketplace and let user's sell their custom avatars and/or custom assets for avatars, for a cut.
can't sell Kermit the frog, that's Disney
Fair, just that my larger point was to grab an installed user base and then e-shittyfy it, rather than build something shitty first. You can work out rights issues with Disney once you have the Kermit avatar user's, rather than having no user's at all
