The 3 biggest social apps seem to be: - Twitter: text first - Instagram: image first - TikTok: video first I still believe that there is a play for an audio first social media. Clubhouse got close. Podcasts and audiobooks are very highly consumed content, why isn’t this experience social?

Text can be scanned, images can be quickly flipped through, and video can convey a ton of information / stimulation in a short amount of time. All make the consumption experience easy > higher views > % of views convert to engagement > engagement encourages more posting. Hard to grow to B scale without this flywheel

YouTube is a similar mental model imo- crowdsourced video content that is not inherently social without a bidirectional graph. Users subscribe to channels, consume content, and can see what other people think about it. Interestingly, podcasts have thrived there .
