   artificial scarcity still creates scarcity. it only bears the vague hope that it could be turned off like a vacuum cleaner.

     @lritter

     i find being recommended by @lritter is scarce.
     Why not give everyone in the world free recommendation? is t that scarcity kinda annoying?

     it keeps the exclusive club of those who have a recommendation from @lritter and everyone else is left to their own devices

     I think when people complain about artificial scarcity, they're talking about NFTs and and money and other such things.

     @lritter HA! So your keeping it artificially scarce. I'm not so sure if that is really a world we want. Dont we want a world of abundance?

     @lritter 😍 thank you so much. Nobody ever said that about me.
     Now i feel special, but there are still so many billions out there...

     ...on the other hand, if you recommend everyone like that, ...it would make me feel less special.

     I wonder why though? 🤔

     @serapath you mean recommend a person, like a good beer? "try serapath, they got a nutty aroma that goes smoothly over the palate"

     @Hyolobrika @lritter

     Maybe, but it matters when it comes to philosophy. "NFT and money and other such things" is quite a blurry concept 🙂

     Some might argue, money is nothing more than an opinionated recommendation or endorsement system. ...maybe thats false, but i enojy poking around and see where do stances differ and why.

     Maybe it is possible to get new insights and learn in that process

     @serapath it depends on what we want an abundance of. a bigger ego?

     @lritter is it bigger ego?

     what if you recommend me or i recommend you and you dont even know about it?

     Maybe somebody can now follow your rambling and get inspired - did that make anyones ego bigger though?
