Shiels your combination of reaction + message scores + join date leads me to think you must've registered in '08, never posted, and then re-appeared in the last year as a regular. Is this true? How's my Sherlock impression?

was introduced by a friend in maybe 2006/2007 and lurked, registered in 2008 and mostly lurked for a decade, very sporadic engagement. Luke seduced me into posting full time during a vulnerable period in 2019

Crowdsourced music videos

The music no longer belongs to the artist. That's been the case for a long time with remixes and sampling. This is the web version of that.

I guess really nothing belongs to anyone anymore. It's all grist for the mill.

Do you get meme critics? Or internet culture critics?

It seems impossible to apply a critical criteria to the internet. Its too slippery. But perhaps an internet/meme critic would be an explicator of influenced and nuances. To help the uninitiated understand.

Probably explication is all that is left to be done.

A heap of broken images

Or

A box of toys to get stuck into

The scary thing will be getting to the stage when you don’t even understand why something is popular, no grasp on any of it

Maybe that's part of the appeal of tiktok already, noone has a clue why that girl twitching her nose like that, or cranberry jiuce guy on his longboard are so popular, literally nobody, but the numbers show that they have had the attention, mediated by their "algorithm" which is actually simpler than it sounds, just how long viewers stayed and how many swiped away

more about the how the interface behaves and how you interact with it than any complicated equation, it's as simple and pared down as possible compared to twitter and instaface, and then spits out these incomprehensible results
