"Post consistently to grow your audience" is the worst advice.
It fosters a quantity-over-quality mindset and leads to burnout. Even worse, it optimizes for attention exploitation. This is dogma from a closed source mindset where black box algorithms rule the web.
Instead, focus on one important message, iterate on your process, and share your work when it's ready. This is advice for a high signal world.

Don't know if its relevant, but "Value-Based Strategy" using the "Value Stick" was something I learned recently.
Being a big Austrian Econ enthusiast, this piqued my interest.
I think the Value Stick (after a quick google) is more about a seller setting a good price for all stakeholders to be happy.
But I guess price is information and my post was about creating higher signal information. I think zaps on high signal content could work like a price signal. But I'm not sure if this is what you're getting at.
I brought it up to be something supplemental to your message. Adding to the last third of your note, the whole iterating a process and creating value (aka Signal)
What does it mean to improve upon one's process?
Understanding what the customer wants? Is the customer someone like yourself?
It could be lowering marginal prices through lowering marginal cost, improving production through more efficient means of production.
More value (aka signal) can be produced by improving the experiences of suppliers, thus potentially lowering marginal costs for buyers.
Zaps are cool and all, its just a different business model.
I apologize if this doesn't clear things up, I'm a bit of an idiot 😄
(All in all, I'm agreeing with you)
Ask yourself "How can I provide the most value for the most people?"
We are all One & when you adopt a servant leader mindset you serve yourself via others.
Adding to the noise that people are already subjected to is not valuable. Concentrating signal & filtering out the noise is valuable.
Know your strengths & use them to provide value to others. Everything else should work itself out over time.
Well this is the world of meritocracy and some how people beleive that bunch of them deserve better treatment than others. Servant leader I think comes from meritocracy instead of accountability.
I suspect servant leader is a term that's been adopted by those who want to extract move value from their slaves. I was hesitant to use it but I like the mindset when it's used selfishly - to further the interests of the individual.
The approach of delivering the most value to the most people & a mindset of serving others feels a bit socialistic. This isn't about virtue signalling or about getting grants from govt's that steal the value from their citizens.
To me, it's more in line with meritocracy. Those who are able to provide the most value are generally able to generate the greatest return for their efforts. If you focus on generating the most value rather than the return that you expect or desire, your products/services tend to be more valued.
On a spiritual level, I deeply believe that we're all One. We're all here to experience & to grow as individual sovereign souls. We're also expanding our shared consciousness. We get back everything that we put out. Free choice is important & we should never be forced to act for the greater good. The mere suggestion that a group of people can determine what is best for every person is laughable. I believe that the individual is best placed to create & distribute value to other individuals. That the creator & giver of value will be compensated through natural human reciprocity.
