  • it’s a fad in terms of the hype and the superstition.

    it won’t go away. it will just become boring and mostly a business to business concern that is invisible to the end consumer. just like every other big fad of the past 20 years. ‘big data’, ‘crypto’, etc.

    5 years ago everyone was suddenly a ‘data scientist’. where are they now? yeah… exactly.













  • yeah. the platforms aren’t so bad in and of themselves, it’s the engagement algorithms that turn everything to shit.

    just like IG, YT, video/music stremaing etc. you could stumble upon random and interesting shit… now the algo is just trying to shove kendrick lamar and joe rogan at me none stop because that is what is ‘popular’ and whatever shitty movie that netflix is trying to promote.

    browsing is dead and search is also mostly broken. you can’t even effectively search for shit anymore.

    the only place i can freely browse anymore is my local library. and discover lots of cool things. that experience on the internet is dead.
