Solarpunk and web3 (self.solarpunk)

Note: I might just be uneducated on the subject.

When I read about web3 with blockchains, smart contracts and dapps, all sounds very promising. But once you look for any real world applications it is just some obscure things that kind of only exist to support the decentralized system. I guess that makes sense, but are there any actual real world uses for that? Like day-to-day things that make a persons life easier, not harder?

Yeah this idea of decentralization is kind of a buzzword at the level the bros push it at

Every user having to check your work doesn't offer more security it offers a waste of power so inneficient it'd be like using a Matrioshka Brain as a simple calculator
