I think there is something there to start a conversation about how messed up the Internet is these days.
Walls are being placed up all over. Security teams are always freaking out and checks that charge the guest are being put up just to track people going in and out.
I think we have finally hit the breaking threshold of everyone getting online and gated communities are the only way people want to exist in the web now. I mean how many times has Lemmy been DDOS'd already on several instances. Scrapers are everywhere trying to steal data for any and all purposes.
As much as we may not like it for people that want a pleasant experience without effort entrance tickets might actually need to start being made to let people into the world's largest circus we ever made.
