For modern western music yes, but it has not been like this all the times and even now the rest of the world uses many other scales and many tonal systems, quarter tones, microtonal, ...

I did not invent the social media addiction part... It's actually how it's built, on purpose.

You know you're right, but also know it was just a quick analogy, right 😉 I did not put all my brain in this one, sorry. But still social media addiction is going to show how dangerous it is with time. I think we should not underestimate it.

Fast food is just slow-acting dope. Same brain circuit, same compulsions—only difference is it kills you over decades instead of months.

I'm sorry if this sounded paternalistic. That wasn't my intention. But assuming that highly viewed content equates to what people truly want is misleading. Social media exploits our brain's dopamine system, the same reward loop involved in substance addiction. Each like or notification gives a fast dopamine hit. Over time, this builds dependency and emotional desensitization. Creating content that fuels this cycle is like cooking meth: it gives people what they crave, and yes, it can make you a lot of money. But is it good for them? For society?

Not sure about the "what people want to read" part. That's a big issue to me. The social systems are flawed as they make us think that kawaii and selfies and what you had for lunch is what people want to read. But it's wrong, it's what people are attracted to. The flies doesn't go straight into the blue light because they want to... We have a moral choice to do. Do we feed the machine or do we try to make each other better. One is easy and machine rewards us for it short term, the other is hard and the reward is long term from people who will really appreciate us for what we bring to them.

Produce what YOU find valuable. That’s how you stand out. No one needs another watered-down replica of something that’s already been done a hundred times. Your ideas are worth sharing. Your voice matters. Don’t worry about what polished “creators” are doing. Just be real. We can tell when you're faking it. We’re not that naive.
