The Tale Of the social Media Algorithm

For millennia, fishermen have spun yarns of monstrous catches and heroic feats. While our modern medium differs greatly, the essence remains: these tales, much like those of old, resonate most deeply and spread most widely when shared among kindred spirits.

Social media platforms emerged over twenty years ago when entrepreneurs recognized the internet's potential for fostering social connections beyond data storage. This led to the creation of platforms like Facebook and Myspace, with many more following suit. Today, we have a diverse array of social media channels such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube, each serving different purposes for sharing our brave stories of heroic feats, or just some little things we found interesting.
