Some people dont think of X as prison. People who earn from it have been waiting for tools for a long time. He’s just capturing creators by rewarding them. It’s what YouTube did and many creators love YouTube - they earn a full time income on it.

Some creators also love algorithms because they are good at gaming them and rely on the vitality to get reach.

We have to think outside our bubbles sometime to look at how others view the world.

My son is a full time YouTuber and I don’t mean to fault the content creators or platforms per se, they are both significant improvements over what existed before. I merely mean to highlight the power individuals should have over their own content. If you’re being taken advantage of know you have the power to choose, the power isn’t with Twitter or YouTube, it’s with you.

If people realize their power and take ownership of it I think we will see a nostr revolution since nostr’s greatest strength is giving individuals their sovereignty.
