We talk about bot problems but we don’t talk about humans who are also “bots.”

People who understand they’re incentivized to post a certain take at a certain moment to take advantage of the moment.

Finding myself consuming less because so much content feels disingenuous.

I think a distinction here is helpful for separating this between posts oriented around "experiencing a shared moment with folks" and "seeking exit liquidity".

Imo the former is awesome, and the latter is toxic

I like this distinction a lot!!

There’s definitely a “performance” line that you can just feel in these moments. It’s palpable

Ya I get that, I'd guess its part of the tradeoffs of social networks though? 

Sort of a negative instance of "show me the incentives, and I'll show you the outcomes"
