Had exactly the same thought process. The biggest things on the internet have NO marketing. The cicada puzzle was like "no we don't want anybody, we want individuals solving it without sharing so DO NOT share" ...and they shared the fuck out of it. Same with the popularity of dark web places - for a normal person it is a pain in the ass since you need a tor compatible browser but people want to get there and install it. Same with 4chan and reddit, it is really not a clean user experience, but this is the place where the cool kids drop new memes, and because there, groups like wallstreetbets are born, people want to be there and not on facebook.
PS. Bitcoin went viral when satoshi said PLS DO NOT use the wikileaks story for promoting bitcoin, we are still to early, we need to grow silently. And they shared the fuck out of Bitcoin.
mass media adds with "one click away"-products on banners and in emails are from a statistical point of view scam. I never click them, It even insults me. If I want to protect the painting of my car I don't want a product which says "all in one, easy to apply", I rather take honesty and we know that making stuff more accessible and more cheap does not necessarily increase sales. Giving stuff harder access (only apple store apps) and raise the price for no reason works. Apple and Starbucks. Humans are lots of reverse psychology. Being a "nice" aka easy person, helping all the time and always agreeing does not bring you far with dating. But people don't get the implication, being an asshole is not the solution either.
Are you on Discord at all?
seems to me like every time he uses it, he has a new account xD
ohh fast übersehen,
yes, @woelfchen is right, I never realy used it. I thought about a hidden "promotion" campaign on reddit, dropping a JPG as a trojan horse. I made a dummy
no moderator can ban it, it is suspicious all by it self but it does not violate any rules. It could be spam, it can be posted in several subreddits. Someday, someone would see what the picture says. It could lead you to a hive-article, to a manifest against censorship on social media, something bigger than promotion. Do you both have any concepts for something which is more effective than adds?
