Twitter wasn&rsquo;t innovative since the start.</p> </li> <li> <p>Microblogging not only was a thing before Twitter, it&rsquo;s better version, blogging was the prevalent way of people having a presence on the web and interact with each other.</p> </li> <li> <p>Blogs had comments, which are way better than likes.</p> </li> </ul> https://www.sp-cy.com/status/technologist-hypocrisy/ Thu, 29 Jul 2021 00:36:38 -0500 https://www.sp-cy.com/status/technologist-hypocrisy/ <p>One thing I&rsquo;ve noticed along the years of learning &amp; witnessing the development of web technologies is that their own creators barely use the things they build for the public knowing the monetization incentives they build into their platforms. Where&rsquo;s @Jack pro-activity on Twitter? Where&rsquo;s Mark constant engagement on Facebook? Why does Andy Rubin just left Android to Google&rsquo;s oversight. They all seem to end up abandoning their creations when they become ad tracking networks with addictive features because most of the engagement turns out to come from outrage, cry-tizism and that ends the party for everyone. I wish that in the next decade web technologies turn into services of value instead of low quality engagement systems.</p>
