@elsua54 You are missing the point with this part of #incentives.
Incentives suggests / demands you give something extra when eventually (especially Tech) you have to accept less / go back to basic protocols / interface in order to cancel out most of the bad mixed in.
Features (advertising) also did solve the problem first on a big scale such as better interface + connectability (universal sign-in) as a mainstream effort - but at cost of #mainstream #VentureCapitalism pumping / subsidising it.

When I read that one (U.S.A.) venture capitalist largely bought out the founders and an earlier (German) venture capitalist, and then went on to do a re-brand and re-organization (It has already been turned into a subsidiary of another company.) only to make redundancies a year later, I became able to make a shrewd guess.

I've experienced this pattern firsthand.
Sadly I feel like the whole ethos of 21st century business ventures has been various schemes wherein one person or group Fucks Around and then everyone else Finds Out.

I met a traveler from an antique land,
Who saidââTwo vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . .
...
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.â
"Ozymandias"
by Percy Bysshe Shelley

@lettosprey Kahoot kommer nok dessverre til ĂĽ bli stĂĽende som et skoleeksempel pĂĽ et i utgangspunktet godt produkt som fikk sprøyta inn for mye kapital og dermed for sterkt inntjenings-press. Investorer og høy børskurs er døden for noe som burde vĂŚre enkelt, greit og billig đ˘

Peter "Palantir" Thiel and a load of other venture capitalists are sponsoring an openly pro-doping sports event đ¤Ž
"Organisers of the Enhanced Games, which has been backed by venture capitalists including the billionaire Peter Thiel, have called their event the Olympics of the future. They argue that drug use in sport should be called a demonstration of science."
This says everything about their priorities and attitude to humanity...
