Interesting article, thanks for sharing.
3 years since the plandemic began, 3 years since I escaped Google. 2 years since the "free" vaccines, "free" holidays, and the rest of the "free" stuff began, 2 years since I escaped with "crypto" (and now 1 year with Bitcoin only).
I don't want to do marketing but with Kagi (the search engine) I noticed the average person does less than 100 searches per month. It happens I do on average more 15 times more searches than the average user per month. I wondered at the time how come people can do less than 100 searches per month on average (like do they lack so much curiosity?). According to the article the average person uses Tick Tock instead. I never used it, but it is interesting to see that the average person has a different way of interacting with computers. I mainly interact a lot with computers through words, reading, PDFs, etc. I guess the average person interacts with computers through sound and images (in images I also include videos).
I wonder if in terms of education and how our brain works, platforms like Tick Tock change something. Like in Japan people use ideograms, and if I remember well it changes the way we use our brain to read and hence how our brain works, since it is more pictorial than reading with the alphabet.
By the way, in the article it said "she’s adamant that most of the backlash against food bloggers attaching long personal essays to the top of their posts is obnoxious and sexist". Is it me or there is indeed no logical relation between "long personal essays" and "sexist"? I couldn't get the meaning of this sentence (note: I have never been to an English speaking country so it could be a cultural misunderstanding).
