I think that content is less about the… contents of the content.. and more about the container of the context of the content
Ie, sharing writing is writing, its beautiful, its thoughtful, its long form… if it’s on @paragraph, or a website, or a journal, or a digital garden.. etc.
But! Taking that same writing and converting it into the context of social media, it now becomes a constrained idea within the confines of the “box” of the post (or cast). The sole purpose is to promote the brand/long form writing, but it’s submitted to the chaos stream of social media as literal “feed” to the algorithm.
In that sense, it’s part of the grind, the mill of social media, that needs to be continuously shared if the creator has any hope of reach/engagement, breaking through the noise.
So in that sense, in an algorithmic world, I think it’s actually helpful to bifurcate content into its own style of creation, because it’s not the value in and of itself, it’s what points to the value 0 reply
