We lost a lot of literature in long arc of time. If only we had all the data we could understand the psychology of people in the past and know why they did things they did.

I agree with nostr:npub1k0fwykqsj7q2la5ttncv9unzf9lawymme8ulu4rwcmfmlsfx48eseq7e9m's statement about the value of keeping books or some value of old communications.

But how do you discriminate the really valuable work from 50 shades of Kardashians breakfast or a teenager selfiesession? 😅

At the edges.

If someone seems it valuable they can ensure it’s survival easily and cheaply.

Aka the free market?

Would you have predicted tweets of Elon or Trump or AOC before their time in spotlight to be of any value? It’s hard to say what becomes culturally valuable.

also once we implement and use 0-100 scoring of keys/posts instead of likes, signal will go to infinity

you might be underestimating how much we can learn from the human shadow
