friendly neighborhood shitcaster // working on @pinetree

Yea I certainly have my tinfoil hat feelings of relegation to the off-meta feed haha

I also agree, but with maybe a huge caveat

I think the Merkle team has very strong opinions about the challenge of content generation and very little attachment to individual creators outside of avoiding the anger of longtime users 

Gun to my head I bet they believe:
- Most people will always make bad content (or at least content that is “bad” outside their immediate social circle)

- Creators as a class are fundamentally economically unsustainable at least at current % of population rates (thats why we get sub min wage weekly prizes not something more structured)

- AI content esp infinitely generative custom content will supersede most if not all content creators in the next 5-10 years

- The normies will follow the AI content

- But since normies don’t use crypto apps yet, let’s prioritize CT big dawgs

So normal users aren’t coming anytime soon
