If you’re looking for network effects without broadcasting value beyond the network, you’re mistaking internal motion for external momentum.

The value proposition is conservative because it reduces culture to ownership, value to price, and participation to purchasing, and lets be honest there’not that many of you as differentiated consumers. Just replicating existing systems, with different aesthetics and worse UX but not with the creative risk needed to attract culture will not work. You can’t bootstrap a new medium with late-stage media assumptions. “We’ll tell you what to like.” You’re starting from zero. You don’t own the pipes. You don’t even own the audience. You have to earn every moment of attention.
