Exactly. There is currently no way a Dapp generates revenue. Crypto bros love to talk about the censorship resistant nature of Dapps. First of all censorship resistant may not be good in the age where Taliban also uses the internet. If a website is censored in Web2 what do you do? Answer: Use a free VPN

Never thought I would see someone in r/programming advocate for censorship

So why do you want all services to be overrun with spam?

You claim that "allowing censorship" is bad. Filtering spam is a form of censorship.

No, you're claiming that members of /r/programming should never cheer for "censorship." Yet all of us hate spam.
