There are three types of knowledge workers. The ones who do the work. The ones who schedule meetings about the work. And the ones who create Notion templates to track the meetings about the work. The third group has the most LinkedIn followers.

All you need to know about the tech industry is that the people building tools to "connect humanity" haven't spoken to their neighbours in 6 years

If you prioritise "sign up" over "login" on your landing page to the point that existing users have to search for the button, you are holding your existing users in contempt. And you're an arsehole to boot.

@Daojoan Big part of the problem is how they monetize information. A video forces you to "stay", whether 5 mins or less. A text, like others commented here, is more difficult to monetize. I miss the old days of the internet when it was truly about sharing knowledge and info, far away from metrics and clicks

The worst thing about online learning is that everything has become a video. Every code tutorial. Every design tutorial. Nobody actually writes out a guide anymore. It's just "hey guys welcome to my tutorial" and watching 10 minutes of content that isn't remotely relevant...

It’s officially been over 3 years since I’ve started on Mastodon. Rather then talk about what’s so great I figured I’d just list stuff I haven’t seen:

- I haven’t had any posts from people I don’t follow

- I haven’t been served ads for items I’ve spoke about near my phone or for that matter any ads at all

- I haven’t been served random articles similar to one article I clicked on out of curiosity like two years ago

- I haven’t been asked to upgrade or subscribe to anything

- I haven’t had AI shoved down my throat or have had AI slop dumped on me.

- I do not have bot accounts randomly messaging me

It’s better here and I don’t know why anyone would go anywhere else ..
