Hey. I’m still new-ish here and so that brings the value of perspective, I hope.
So let’s talk about the number of content creators (CCs) I’ve seen recently lamenting the lack of engagement with their content. It’s disturbing to me how many I’ve seen talking about the issue without providing any solutions to the problem or even worse not engaging with their own audience.
I don’t mean to be whatever but it makes it seem like you’re just posting for upvotes and the $ that comes with them rather than trying to contribute to the community, which makes you as bad as @berniesanders.
Someone wise I know once told me that complaints directed at anyone other than the person who can change them are foolish. In this case, the change starts with us. If you want the system to change, start first by changing yourself– which is infinitely harder and actually makes a difference.
Here’s a chance to practice: Am I right? Am I wrong? Tell me, and tell me why. The lack of comments on this post will only prove my point.
Let’s try to make a difference. MakoSpecific CCs I’m calling out (because I follow them and I’ve seen it): @honeydue
