Is Google about to destroy the web?

Sounds like you want to nationalise the internet and all its services.
If only we could pay for a worthwhile internet via taxes.
All it would take would be a platform that handles the payment and supplies a tracking pixel. Websites could join and become part of it. At the moment, every single publisher has their own payment solution. If I want to read one local article from Houston today and one from Tokyo tomorrow, I won't join two payment plans. I want them to be paid automatically, like when I play a song on Spotify or watch a video on YouTube. Just a decent amount of money instead of paying mostly middlemen.

Someone posted this the other day: https://goodinternetmagazine.com/building-a-slow-web/
I really liked the idea so I quickly made my personal site and put it on the indie webring. It's a tiny community but it's there.
its neat, but its not the same. old internet was more than a thing. it was an era.

May I introduce you to https://webmonetization.org/ ?
Very interesting. I hope this passes as an actual Standart. I looked around but couldn't find information on how to enable it in the Webbrowser. It just says firefox is not supported.
Nevermind I found the extension will try it again.

On Firefox (my default browser everywhere it's available) I use the Coil extension but seems it's now called InterLedger (Wallet) cf https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-monetization-extension/
If you go on my web site https://fabien.benetou.fr/ you should see 3 hearts under the 3D model if it's enabled.

I could spend a lot of time sifting through ads, nag screens and bullshit to find the actual detail I want on a webpage.
Or validating source, making sure it isn't AI content which usually regurgitates the same talking points. Homogenizing the entire query and removing actual information variance of personal experience.
