Yeah, stuff like Twitter and Facebook and BlueSky have to funnel everyone into one Gigantic Public Square, so that they can control the narrative and spy on people and sell advertising.

That's why Trump loves that stuff. Look at me! Look at me! Whole world must look at me! Buy $Trump! MAGA!

Tiresome as heck.

People just wanna chat with people about stuff they find interesting or hang out with their frens, or some mix of the two. And they don't always want to do that in public.

An the people who are at the top (influences and advertisers) love it, they assume everyone else is like them and can do it like them and see no other world view. They're so isolated it's wild. They don't understand that it's massively asymmetric contract.

Rewarding to the few, time/wealth extraction and isolation for the many.

Yeah, I'd rather just talk to my frens or people nerding out with me about the stuff I like nerding out about.

Also cuts down on the AI, as smaller groups are more likely to meet in person.

to me, the whole point of social media is meeting people!!!!!

Exactly. And then socializing with them online between meetups, and using the online platform to plan the next meetup.

Hence #PurpleKonnektiv.
