It’s always a treat when the support band is better than the one you came for

Bringing out the Dead, because I feel his tortured quest for sleep

I feel like compound interest would be important here

Also consider the Yes Ladder - in sales, getting someone to say yes to something small makes them more likely to agree to other things.

It also applies to other contexts. If a police suspect refuses to talk, they ask innocuous questions because once someone starts talking, it’s hard to stop.

Largely similar to what you have, but abstracting away the metalware and reframing as human-centric.

If the user is at the center, surrounded by more users, making primary & secondary connections, in an approximate circle shape. You can then show traditional social media owners as wedges of that circle, containing (owning) a fraction of the users & preventing connection to others, vs. Fedi that lets you connect to everyone.

I’d say these fall into the same trap that most fediverse explainers fall into — too focused on implementation details, not the experience. The average FB user thinks they’re connecting to friends directly, not really considering the system architecture that powers it.

I’d like a graphic that shows how centralised media blocks connections to others outside thier walled garden.

Could I tempt you with:

• Touch screen

I’m gonna say the direction of the shadow helps sell the illusion of sun overhead

It’s where I keep my piles of disorganised trash

“In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.”

World War 3: Panama Rift

Contramaxxing?

Why not both? Stop future production and remove what’s already out there
