It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me. Or am I? 🤷🏻♀️
I’ve had a 7 week break from engaging on this platform and while I love the connections I’ve built over many years, in all honesty I can’t say I missed being ‘on’. For a couple of years now I’ve had a growing sense of discontent. There’s so much I don’t align with, so much that simply doesn’t make me feel good, such as the punishment/banishment of users for not using specific typologies, the inherent bias confirmation of the algorithm model, the sheer unwillingness to protect users through pitiful community standards. Beyond that, I dropped some data into the flux capacitor and it no longer makes sense as a communications tactic for my business goals, and if you know me, you know I’m always banging on about choosing the right communications tactic for your goals.
So, FB, I don’t think we should see each other any more. It’s not me, it’s you. I’ll be leaving a light on (aka handle remaining active) but if you’d like my unique brand of communications with a touch of snark/sass, you’ll find me on LI (which is also getting on my last nerve) and if you really like me, sign up to my email list and I’ll saunter by your inbox on the regular. xx
