I disagree. The more the "guides" of the curators are used, the more value can be extracted by influencing curators.

If the curator is any good, he won’t be sharing most of the posts. So if you’re posting garbage just to get into the feed, it won’t bear fruit. And if you’re posting quality things, it will, and then it’s not a problem.

no, we gotta have all that money sloshing around like advertisers were hiding in the shadows flinging it at everyone who gets an audience
