I have been feeling a bit of a drag on continuing to write and post on the inter webs. Social media reliance continues to go up while the landscape also continues to grow dystopian. I think without it I’d be too isolated but with it the connections are still mostly unfulfilling. Lately I’ve been talking to Tobi a bunch asynchronously, and I am glad Instagram helped us stay in touch with minimum effort throughout the years. But Meta products feel more like a trap. Throughout the years there have been also plenty of social patterns, that were only probable because of the social media design, that I fell into that were mostly harmful. In some sense, the way my social circles have grew has also many “emergent properties” that I’ve been unearthing. Mmm… I think social media hasn’t innovated enough. The incentive structure is really whacked. To be continued. Like (Backed by OpenHeart protocol)
