"The attention economy has us neatly segregated into echo chambers of personal truths. Ironically, the only truth worth pursuing in the attention economy is how to keep the maximum amount of people maximally outraged for the maximum amount of time. All while keeping participants unaware that they are trapped in an algorithmic prison of their own choosing." - @Gigi

"While Big Tech sites like Spotify claim they’re “democratizing” culture, they instead demand artists engage in double the labor to make a fraction of what they would have made under the old model. That labor amounts to constant self-promotion in the form of cheap trend-following, ever-changing posting strategies, and the nagging feeling that what you are really doing with your time is marketing, not art. Under the tyranny of algorithmic media distribution, artists, authors — anyone whose work concerns itself with what it means to be human — now have to be entrepreneurs, too."

Everybody has to self-promote now. Nobody wants to.
So you want to be an artist. Do you have to start a TikTok?

Exactly why we launched playlists on Fountain.
So much value in the back catalogue that doesn’t get surfaced.
Your audience are also the best curators and can earn sats in the process!
@The Bullish ₿itcoiner we’re going to add a featured playlists section in the app soon - will definitely include this! View quoted note →
@jb55 search bar in the home feed is a great addition!
