How and why I created a "decentralized" approach to paywalls
Several years ago, back when Twitter was a thing and it had a decent API, my friend @goose.art did a weird little experiment where he made his avatar dynamic... it automatically changed appearances on a regular basis and became increasingly deep-fried (increased in distortion and lossy compression). I've seen several other people mess around with this concept since then, and I've always had it in the back of my head as something I wanted to eventually try for myself.
In November of 2007, Facebook made a tiny change to its user interface that would massively influence what we know of today as a 'post' on social media. What was that change?
