This was a good read - I've written some other thoughts about it in a reply to @danicaswanson, who put this one on my radar - if you're interested, I'll link to that conversation in the comments. This quote by ithe essay's author ( @vrypan.eth ) stood out to me - “there is no tension between content quality and conversation quality. They are probably complementary.” I would go further and say that I believe a good conversation IS good content – but that raises one of my big and continuing concerns with WC – the obsession attempting to get “good content” without ever explicitly defining what that is. An example of this can be found in my comment on this Cast... What do you think of this essay? And of the proposition that good convo = good content? I look forward to reading your thoughts in the comments.
