Have no idea what it is about, other than being decentralised. Some basic search results suggests that its a sham, scam and riddled with crypto ideas. Or is it apart of something noteworthy? Geuinly curious what the general consensus is of the Web3.

    Some people decided that they needed a buzzword for something that have absolutely nothing to do with the web, and they decided to use Web3.

    Anything “web3” you can think of is a regular webservice, that have no technological difference with “web2” (whatever this was), and may or may not behind the scene communicate with some form of blockchain (which may or may not be a real one too).

    That’s web3. And note that I didn’t even bother to go check what happens on the blockchain side, that is already so removed from the web it’s insulting people calls this web3.
