nobody remembers how Facebook or Twitter actually started Facebook was Facemash: built with stolen data, designed to let you judge people on their looks. exploited your inner asshole, made it exclusive, created FOMO Twitter was twttr: an SMS service for status updates to a small group. same trick. made you feel like your thoughts were important signals to your peers. pure vanity loop neither started as “social media.” both hacked a dark human instinct first, then scaled it throwing money at a protocol doesn’t build a network. understanding why people actually show up does maybe worth sitting with that
