@mlanger @DToher People have different tastes on whether they do or don't like accounts that boost frequently. Which is exactly why Mastodon lets you follow accounts *yet choose not see the posts they boost but only their original posts.*
[Note that I like seeing @hrbrmstr 's boosts, this image is just an example]

All users probably don't enjoy consuming information the exact same way. Flexibility FTW.

@dalfen it can't.

#Balloon or spy plane gives 50x more signal strength. 100x more dwell time. 5000x #SignalToNoise. Plus 1/10th the time of flight (for #MITM and active #sigint or jamming). Countermeasures are expensive.

And 100x more #propaganda and diplomatic leverage. US used to allow Russian #SpyPlanes to surveil our nuke silos (per SALT and other treaties) almost monthy. Public didn't get to see them so nobody cared.

All I’m saying is that the #boost function is imperative to #share #messages and drive #discussion. But the more I boost the more my #SignalToNoise ratio shifts, and the more I’m worried my followers just see boosted crap and not my own #musings and #WiseWisdoms. Right? And damn I’ve never used #hashtags so much in my life before.

I must say I’m not looking forward to the incoming deluge of low-effort, low-quality AI-generated noise that will undoubtedly flow into every medium online that makes money by showing ads.

Now, more than ever, is a good time to nurture platforms and places that don’t rely on ad volume to survive. Subscribe to news outlets and artists who make quality products.

December 15th is the last day to order for UPS Ground shipment to (probably) arrive in time for Christmas. 🎅

Check out the many other excellent #TTRPG available there including @whodo's #SignalToNoise and #CassandraProject.

"the elimination of noise in digital media represents a distortion of our offline perception of information. In analog environments, we derive meaning from both signal and noise. We constantly sort one from the other, and we are very good at shifting our attention, changing what is considered signal and what is considered noise... The definition is in flux, and up to you."

@liaizon @msaunders yes understand this. But it does not get us outa the noise. #signaltonoise is the death of outreach and healthy projects. Hard to make focus with everyone shouting.
