Freedom ™ at work again.

More like SAYING you’ve made a car super safe while actually it’s only safe if you never drive it above 5KM/h and never down hills, up hills, in the rain, etc

I hear this all the time but I struggle to see how it is true. How many people regularly trawl through their feed looking for creators who haven’t posted in X days and unfollowing them? It would be a minuscule number. I’m pretty darn selective with my follows and I think I’d do this once a year, tops.

I think creators are conflating the everyday ups and downs of follower counts on their platform(s) as being something more. And I think the platforms themselves are encouraging this mentality because they need fresh content.

Certainly not news.com.au, the right wing Murdoch rag.
