Under your logic, the internet never should have existed. In the video, bill gates says you can watch sports. Letterman says you can do that with television. Bill gates says you can watch it on demand. Letterman says you can do that with a tape recorder. And there isn’t really anything bill could say in that moment that letterman couldn’t have retorted. And you’re letterman and I’m bill. The answer is in the nuances and unfortunately it doesn’t sound very convincing. If Facebook offers longform video, why does everyone use YouTube? If they offer longform text then why does everyone use sub stack? The difference between Facebook and twitter is that Facebook sucks. Twitter has unfragmented leadership, bureaucratic agility, and a cleaner and more straightforward monetization scheme which will lead to vastly fewer bots and spam. It also doesn’t censor people for trivial bullshit. Overall it’s much more fit and will threaten not only Facebook but YouTube, substack and others. |
