Constantly quantifying social experiences is more disheartening than inspiring. Average number of likes on Twitter is 0.

Imagine having a conversation in real life that is being graded. 

Creating social algorithms is challenging; that's why it takes decades to learn how to have a conversation with another human.

Yeah, definitely interesting things w/regard to “cold start”. 

Mostly referring to constant quantification of social. 

It’s an odd thing when we think about our social lives offline. Are individuals counting the number of friends in their contact list that they actually speak with? 

Quality > quantity

I think Reddit and TikTok have done some incredible work in breaking through cold start issues for new users. A combination of allowing user choice through views like “most recent” or “newly posted” to heavily pushing a users first post to help them find their audience.
