Why is a TikTok-like algorithm for giving new users a boost hard? 1. Social network vs. social media — we started as a follow-based social *network*. The core audience on the network uses a follow graph to express interests. It's also a social network vs. social media (i.e. television with an algo on phone). TikTok was a broadcast / interest-based algo from the start. 2. Narrow focus with a novel primitive — TikTok was extremely successful with a single category — young people (mostly women) dancing / singing to music with high remix-ability — and it took them several years to expand to their next category (gaming-oriented content for younger men). This existed for multiple years before Meta made the big shift to video on Instagram in August 2020. 3. User acquisition — They spent billions of dollars per year on user acquisition (infamously re-acquiring the same users multiple times). So there was a massive audience (even if not retained) to distribute the videos to (with an at-scale AI algorithm from their parent company Bytedance). So if you boost without the audience, you don't get the same result. 4. Text limitations — videos have a longer shelf life vs. text tends to feel stale after a day. There's also a high degree of unsaid context and in-group value (a typical cast from @six or @gwart has 3 layers to the onion). It's also harder to make a widely interesting text post vs. a video (or image). 5. Text is linked to who you are — a video is more likely to stand on its own (assuming it's visually stimulating) whereas what makes text interesting (on a relative basis) depends on who is saying it. Imagine the average new user coming into the network saying "gm happy to be here" vs. someone with 500K+ followers on Twitter saying the same thing. The engagement is as much about the person as what's being said. (Ironically, this is why anons have a lot of success on text-based social networks -- a lot of work to breakthrough of course -- but once you do no one is judging your opinion based on your credentials but on the merits of how smart / funny you've been).

I’m a Manifesting Generator. I dont follow a linear path. I move quickly, change direction when something stops feeling right and often find shortcuts. For a while, I thought that made me inconsistent. But I’m built to pivot, to respond, and let my gut lead once I have emotional clarity. Not my mind (but honestly, that’s true for most of us, even if it’s hard). I don’t need it all to make sense. I just need to stay close to what feels alive. When something sparks energy, that’s the signal to go.

One thing I notice when I'm at Edge is that time dilates. We're in week 4 now, and when I see pictures of things that happened in week 1, they feel like they were many months ago. I think it's something to do with the number of novel experiences that we have every day here. Every day feels 'full' in the sense that there's always something new, and each new experience is like a signpost in time that the brain registers as a something that creates a memory. In contrast, when there are times when I'm just following my normal routine in default world, weeks can blend into each other and months can feel like they pass in days. Curious if you're having this too @ted ! @edgecity
