Imagine: To join Facebook, you have to actually read the ToS, learn Javascript, and then read tons of documents on how to interact with the platform, otherwise you will get 5% of the user experience

That's how dumb web3 onboarding sounds

So true!!!

Terms of S?

That's correct.

Don't actually know what the S stands for...

ToS = Terms of Service

We're expected to understand 5,000 pages of legal fine print within 10 minutes before we hit the CONTINUE button to proceed with the registration process.

until now, I dis not know about this. I will go read it now.

Facebook has told me that my account has been blocked for a long time now, and the only way to regain access is to provide my legal documents to them. I have abandoned the account

Learn JS? Isn't that 4 devs? Regular users of a platform don't need 2know that even here. That's 4 people who want 2make dApps.

ToS, though? That's a separate issue. No1 escapes that.

As 4 how 2interact, it helps 2use familiar elements.

The JS comment is a comparison to having to learn about blockchain, crypto, wallets, governance, internal community rules etc etc etc

And the ToS... literally nobody reads those (even if we do, nobody else does).

Thanks for clarifying the JS comment. Yeah, we need to learn all of those things. Then again, we are fully responsible for everything (BYOB; not your keys, not your crypto, etc.). On top of that each of us is a business owner and investor.

RE: ToS: I'm not saying everyone reads them at the time of application. They remain afterthoughts until we need them; by then it's usually too late. I'm only saying that we can't escape from them. Signing up shouldn't be a Faustian deal.
