So Reddit sells these uh... "things" for a lot of money so users can add it to some sort of wallet, from that wallet they can click on it so it will bring them to 'their URL' (not) from where the Reddit avatar builders opens and they can add this as their avatar.  

I took the effort to make screenshots so everyone can use them for FREE everywhere

@stux Wait what, you realize that is illegal to share copyrighted art right? I mean if your aware I dont care go for it, as long as you know this is illegal though (and my put your instance at risk as the mod too)
@freemo You know.. There's "illegal" and there "illegal"  
@stux As long as you know the risks I wont be saying anything. It seems blatent and intentional though so if anyone does report you you will have a hard time on this one I think.
@freemo If people report it, ill remove it  
@freemo No... don't you report it 
@stux I have no intention of reporting it.. just looking out for you.
@freemo @stux no one likes a copyright narc
@stux “How do we monetize?” “ok ok bear with me… what if NFTs… but somehow even shittier?”
@stux the real money equivalents that those jpegs sold for is giving me an aneurism

@stux

not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need.

@stux then u/spez be like: but, but my money
@stux Excellent. Always wanted to know what Reddit's balloon knot looks like ¬.¬
@stux so where is everyone going now that reddit has pulled a Twitter? I'm quite or if the loop these days...
@zyrix @stux They're checking the Fediverse out, for equivalents. As my understanding goes, Lemmy is the software that replicates that experience, so lookup some Instances like we did for this one.
e.g. https://InfoSec.pub caters for Cybersecurity stuff
Infosec.Pub

@stux last time I checked nft's were already dead. The grifters had already moved on to AI or other crypto scams
@stux Never understood these #NFT! Nobody have been able to make me understand yet! 🥳
@runeranch @stux In very simplified terms, an NFT is a public, digital, difficult to tamper with record linking an identifier with, for instance, a hyperlink, a little like an excel sheet having rows and columns, the first being a name, the second being a hyperlink. Often the link is to a picture, but on its own, the NFT or Excel cells do not imply anything further, such that you “own” what the link points to.
@stux @runeranch Alternatively, you can imagine them as a de facto gateway drug to crypto. On Reddit, NFTs used to be treated with hate and ridicule. But the moment users got one for free, many appear to have changed their minds, cherishing the one NFT they got for free.
@runeranch @stux Honestly, NFT tech is really cool, it just hasn’t been utilized well… At the moment people are using it to sell digital art at ridiculous prices. The original idea is that anyone can sell a digital item to someone else. The best example I can think of is licensing for things like games and movies. I would love to have the ability to resell a digital game or movie to someone else. There will always be people pirating digital assets, but owning and trading it legally is preferable
