This is an interesting stance. I wouldn't necessarily try to extract an hourly rate from social media, though I suppose that's inherit with any tokenized system (time optimization and what not).

I'm not here for that, I'm more interested in a cohesive community driven social media (Mastodon seems pretty fragmented) that doesn't rely on doomscrolling for profit (see Twitter/Facebook/etc). I can't recall seeing ads on here (Ecency) which is a lot nicer than having some corpo overlord profitize content from users. I plan on building out some more curated posts, but for right now just trying to engage with the platform and get a feel for organic conversations rather than crafting content.
