society should normalize having crypto-miners in software, like as an official method of monetization that the user consents to

that would actually fix most of our problems, no ads, no subscrption fees

I don't see a downside to this

edit: if you disagree with me on this, reply. I wanna debate this

I don't think its a horrible idea but maybe have an option for purchase, ads, or crypto. But yeah people are going to hate you for this comment 🤣

that's what I'm thinking, but additionally having a option to directly 'sell' your computing power should also be an option

But yeah people are going to hate you for this comment 🤣

actually though. I haven't been on Lemmy for too long but this might be the most downvotes ive gotten on a comment

Congratulations. It happens. I didn't think it was too bad an idea. What if steam ran the miner to produce steam bux?
