"Peer pressure metrics" displayed on social platforms: Not Accurate & Nor Helpful

Reddit has "Karma" while Twitter and TikTok have likes, saves, and view counts. Spotify has "Monthly Listeners" prominently displayed on the profile of every musician on the platform... Metrics are increasingly being used to drive creators and contributors to sites to work harder, and in return ...

Doing the least on platforms that don't work for you

There is a special power in doing nothing as a protest when you experience injustice.

Not complaining, not watching, not buying things, not worrying... Just protesting by just doing nothing.

But important to note, the effect is often only felt properly when it is done en-masse, although ...

The wheel of mysteriously returning ancient reposts...

The ones of us that interact ritually with the Internet know the term "Repost" all too well. We see reposts regularly now (content that repeatedly gets displayed despite having eclipsed public awareness multiple times) because of many reasons. Sometimes it's from a person trying to generate ...

"Big Brother" is now "Smart Brother" with your user data

Due to the current state of inescapable tracking imposed upon all of us online by "The powers that be" I have been reducing a lot of my normal interactions online to the dismay of many of my friends and family. I fear this may lead to more desires to avoid the Internet entirely as time progresses ...

RIP Organic Growth... Just give em your wallet... :/

I have been stuck at under 400 subscriptions on my YouTube channel for the past 11 years no matter what I have tried and I'm still very thankful, but I also feel a "glass ceiling" constantly by not having the account features that other accounts (that are over 1,000 subs) get on YouTube.

A lot of people have presented business ideas to me over years and I love hearing those new ideas, but lately it seems like too many of these startup ideas are stuck on a "small-scale/organic growth social media site" model for promoting a product or content with ad revenue as an outcome.

Are social media sites intentionally trending towards more corrupt business models?

Our world is changing. I've conducted a bit of research across many major social media sites since their inception (trying to not create a name and shame situation of course), and I've disturbingly found that after they reach a certain point of success, social media sites trend towards very strict ...

Some words to counter our current trend of selfish societal decline...

Pardon our dust...

As America renovates and tries to solve a devastating social decline that began with the phrases "Make America Great Again" and "Drain the swamp" we really haven't done that at all, and ended up making a rather huge freaking mess instead, haven't we? Let's be honest, it was a ...
