Somewhere along the way the wires in my brain have crossed and started associating the word 'content' with 'litter'. So a 'content creator' became 'litterer'. It made it make sense to me why the internet feels more and more awful. It's like a park being more and more covered with litter.

“Content” comes from a world where selling adverts is the primary business and the “content” is just used as a bait or lure to attract eyeballs. The quality of the “content” is a remote concern.
