"#tumblr trying to be like #tiktok then trying to be like #twitter then giving us the 3rd unreality inducing immersive ad, its staff members being condescending to the userbase, the #marketing team trying to parasocialize their way into your pockets, #youtube trying to do away with adblockers after upping the percentage of ads by 40% and making it so even if your video is demonetized watchers will still get them, youtube removing the dislike button then making it so you don't get a home feed if you have watch history turned off, #google being able to remove your synched bookmarks if they don't comply with their policy, if i listed every way in which twitter has gotten worse in the last year this post will be as long as a novel, #ai generated articles and images everywhere, google searches sucking ass in general, reddit charging for its api, #KOSA being introduced into the US senate, tiktok in general, every #socialmedia under the fucking sun introducing #login walls, being unable to browse most sites on mobile from the sheer amount of popups taking over your screen WAUUUGH social media being products and thus requiring infinite growth and thus trying to introduce newer and newer shit that #alienates its dedicated #userbase. saturated sludge era of the #internet"

This seems to be a common thread among the #footgun incidents they've been experiencing for years. They don't seem to consider how a product #shutdown, #rename, #launch, major UI #change, or some other action will look from the user's point of view.

Are they just taking the #userbase for #granted? Pure obliviousness? Management incentives that discourage it?

A lot of the time I think I'd like to be a fly on the wall when these decisions are being made.

The classic #trilemma goes: "Fast, cheap or good, pick any two." The Moderator's Trilemma goes, "Large, diverse #userbase; centralized #platforms; don't anger #users—pick any two."
Rozenshtein proposes a solution to the Moderator's Trilemma: federation. De-siloing #socialmedia, breaking it out of centralized #walledgardens and recomposing it as a bunch of small servers run by a diversity of operators with a diversity of content moderation approaches.

Afaik "how much" the servers interact w. e.o. differs server to server.

It might have to do with:
* how much ppl from said servers #interact w. e.o.
* how the admins configured things
* How big the #userbase is

defed'ed #servers are off limits obviously

#MercadoLibre is one of the few #ecommerce players making use of its massive #userbase as a springboard for #business #diversification. Its #fintech arm, #MercadoPago, is the biggest play in this #strategy

#Mastodon #userbase is growing insanely fast. The waves are getting bigger.

7,405,881 accounts
+8,854 in the last hour
+125,176 in the last day
+674,949 in the last week

If a regular social app had this kind of growth, every venture capitalist from Shanghai to Silicon Valley would be beating down your door, begging you to take their money.
