The Drop Bear 2.0 
It makes me sad to see so many people saying “I’m not anyone” when introducing themselves on social media. Um, yeah, you are someone. You are you and everyone in the world has something to say and often a lot more people are interested than you may think. Unfortunately I think a lot of peoples thinking has been trained that unless you have lots of followers / you’re famous / you post controversial opinions then you’re not worthy of being heard. You are.
edwardchampion@dropbear Our society is trained to only reward or acknowledge those who "matter" on social media. And there's no real way around the likes and followers racket other than to surround yourself with people who get you, who may not even be on social media. I've often learned years later that something I wrote or made meant the world to them. Best to be so focused and prolific that you're too busy to think about how you're "landing" with an audience. Obliviousness is often a virtue!
@edwardchampion that’s one of the things I really like here. I haven’t (in the main) seen that relentless push for followers that you do on some sites or the posting just for engagement
@dropbear Oh, it's there, but the ones who are gaming this "new" venue are being very cunning about their angling. However, on the flip side, the great birdsite migration has also revealed that there are a number of influencers who, much to my surprise, still carry the excitement of discovering new ideas and encouraging alternative voices.
