RE: A Post About Nothing Published in the Worst Possible Timeslot

in #life4 years ago

I just meant humanity has a tendency of only publishing its good side.

I think I understand you. These days though, with what I was saying about consumers sharing and acting as distributors; media corporations can't even function without those consumers passing things around nowadays.

Google bought Youtube. Sharing a link on Facebook now sends you directly to Youtube, since those two companies fight for their portion of the attention economy. In the early days, many people didn't even know what Youtube was, so seeing a video in your Facebook feed was free advertising for Youtube, even though the video was only about cats. That's how content becomes advertising when shared. I don't need to write posts about PeakD or Hive. It just needs to be something entertaining that leads to the platform.

I understand you perfectly my friend, the truth is that everything goes in one direction and it is difficult to turn things around.

YouTube has changed since its inception and well we just adapt or something like that.

I'm not fearful of the direction things are headed, but sometimes I do feel like the platform is afraid of commitment, so that makes remaining loyal more challenging than it needs to be.

I've been talking about that on the platform and I understand you.
