The MLM point is good but not quite right. It's not like his whole audience is there mainly to try to be an "influencer" like him. Some are probably just more passive readers. I certainly share all your views about real human connection, and I especially hate the ad-driven economy described in the story. We want to have curation as a specialization. There's value in that. We don't want it merely algorithmic or wisdom-of-crowds only. So, it's complex and I see points in defense of this stuff. But the constant newness, quantities of daily updates… that stuff is where I feel this is most destructive. It plays into addiction on all sides and has no healthy balance. |
