This may destroy ~~the economy~~ capitalism faster than AI could

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

Not necessarily. Some economists say this (on a large scale) would even lead to greater wealth in the population. However, it would destroy capitalism pretty quickly.

Thats dumb, they always come back, I don't sell my stuff, I always end up reusing it or getting back into it

I also try to go as cheap/free as possible, chasing good deals is a hoby

[-] vrek@programming.dev 5 points 1 month ago

I was taught for tools or equipment always buy the cheapest you can find. If you use it enough and for long enough that it breaks or is not good enough then splurge and get the quality version. Like if you get into drawing buy that $15 pencil kit...in a month or 2 if you find you want to continue with drawing but you need better pencils then go out and buy the 50 or 100 dollar version. At that point you will know you want to continue drawing and you have enough foundational knowledge to know what is important and what is pure marketing.

I re-purpose sooo many things, and use so much random crap for projects when my budget won't allow completing them, but frankensteining my backlog will.

This would be good against overconsumption too!

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

This is a really good idea

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

If you're alright with paying Goodwill prices instead of free swaps, this is basically what a creative reuse store is if you want to search for one near you. I've got so much craft stuff on the cheap from the one near me.

[-] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Except to would have swappers remorse and almost immediately become super interested in the hobby again.

[-] LemmyThinkAboutIt@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

What if my hobby is buying craft supplies?

Capitalism if it was actually driven by demand.

Fun fact, the oven I use to make my cosmetics was recently recalled.
