Every time they purposefully ommit crucial info like this it means it's a complete showstopper.

This is the effort of many people pushing for more development in green energy until it was able to be produced at a cost efficient way

I think this oversimplifies it a lot. There were a lot of different actors involved - I'm sure a lot of development was coming both from the semiconductor industry, and from state funded research, but in the end, the greed machine (aka capitalism) takes care of further researching and scaling it to the global level.

Also it's not like there wasn't any money in that business years ago - even back then solar was commonly used as a remote power source in mobile applications (calculators, camping and so on). Also NASA, but this was purely state funded

Except numbers aren't confirming that theory Look at Wikipedia article about growth of photovoltaics https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_of_photovoltaics

Solar power is booming world wide, consistently since many years. At >20% annual expansion rate, the exponential growth will start putting a dent on fossil within few years.

I mean, for many, even small fee would be a showstopper. This is the biggest issue here - people shitpost a lot for better or worse, because it's free.

Paid model would probably not work for meme boards, but it might work for large technical communities

If we put real money in it, it would be devastating

I mean users should pay. Rewarding users with money would be suicidal for any social media.

Well, you probably also don't like working for free. Involving money and attaching price to every post is at least some solution to the problem.

Besides this could be done without crypto - any type money should be equally suitable (at least in theory)

I think that in the future there should be a social media where you pay few cents for every post, and mods collect the fees for their work

Keep defending your CEO daddies

Maybe I'm one of them?

wealth disparity is a zero-sum game

Except it's not. That wealth isn't cash in some bank account, in most cases it's a stock in companies these people built from scratch - Bezos made Amazon, Gates Microsoft, Buffet Berkshire Hathaway and so on

The wealth of super rich is allocated in places that produce goods and services

Why are you obsessed around wealth of other people? You should be more concerned about your own income rather than some super wealthy CEO
