The Freename Forum

Let this serve as another reminder that you need to own your audience. You need a website and email, and you need a domain you can build upon—something that won’t be taken away at a platform’s whim.

Thinking this through to the end automatically leads to buying Web3 domains without renewal fees (e.g. from Freename) instead of Web2 domains, because only Web3 domains offer true ownership (with many advantages). Web2 domains, on the other hand, are only leased for 1 year and are subject to monitoring by authorities.
