some thoughts and questions given recent news re: "interesting content," changes to how channels work to me, social platforms are marketplaces with "buyers" and "sellers" (in this case, of content) - creators are "sellers" of their content goods - enjoyoors / vibing / curators are "buyers" as a content creator type on fc, i have expressed my concerns that the current fc algorithms punish new users too hard, which reduces possible audience sizes and makes the place not attractive to content creator types (and not fun for content consumers either!) (i also want to emphasize that i myself am a "buyer" on other platforms like instagram, youtube, etc.! there is no value judgement to be either and we often play both roles.) so what if instead, *user intent* is composable? similar to how in role-playing games, you can play as characters with diff types of specialization and it's set "per session," since sometimes I want to broadcast and share my content, and other times, support my friends with theirs

@ivy what do you think, especially with regards to second-order effects that i have not thought through?

fc is making a mistake in moving back towards the creator <> audience model, making it hard for new ppl to stay engaged is a serious disincentive for creators to come here 'mint our own stars' ignores that ppl might better spend that effort elsewhere rn

ya i mean i think looking at it through the lens of the creator <> audience model and creator <> community + community member A <> community member B the creator economy era solidly moved things towards the second model, the community interacting with the community creates serendipity
