I wonder though if the things that make a space exclusive (aside from money) are actually more generally available to everyone. Reputation can be built in a group chat just as easily as an exclusive pay gated member community.

True, but I think if communities become more gated, it'll naturally gravitate towards more separation between the elites and the non-elites

I mean, I kinda see it on SN already, where new users don't often get much benefit of the doubt.

And recently, arXiv changed their policies from "anyone with a .edu email address can post a paper", to "you must be endorsed by an active member before you can post"

This is true. I still try very hard to check whether a user who sounds like a bot actually is. Unfortunately, most of the time they are.

A world of invite only is looking better and better. But it is also the saddest version of the internet ever.
