Ok so the conclusion of this post first: I’m recruiting team members for Cheeserland.jp!
Now allow me to digress.
Seeing how social media is dominating the world, I sometimes wonder if it’s still worth keeping a blog. I mean, does anyone still read an article longer than a tweet these days?!
I started out as a blogger. 2020 marks my 16th year of blogging.
It shocked me how putting utmost emphasis on creating the kind of photos that will garner maximum engagement for Instagram has killed my ability to write. I will be honest: I have made the decision to close the comment section of this blog for good simply because I wasn’t getting any of them. Even if I do, there wasn’t something substantial worth keeping it alive. Just look at how the random emojis and “great shots!!!” and “beautiful pic!!!” amidst old money collectors’ pleads quickly filling up below an IG photo seeking the same favor in a faint hope to trick the system into thinking that you are more worthy of notice than the latest shitty algorithm decides you are.
