Notes
- There's a distrust on the web.
- Why are you sharing what you're sharing? Are those real followers? Is it fake news?
- It's extremely noisy online now
- It would be nice to mark something as "out of band" e.g. if you're shitposting or just being silly.
- example: Chris Aldrich has chicken posts which are goofy/silly and just can't be taken seriously. How could this be expanded upon? Snark-mark posts?
- chicken is v srs bizness in 2019 #chickfila -- gRegor remote shitposting in the notes

- On Twitter you can either be super professional and share one type of thing or...
- You get this "ambient intimacy" following people online
Subjective Web
- Think of the web as a world with mountains, rivers, forests
- Now it feels like there's all this industrial pollution
- There are people who learn how to work in this toxic place. You may not know if something is toxic before tasting it.
- How can we create a subweb for people who are experienced in filtering this toxic world to bring good things?
- Kind of like a closed subweb, modular. You can interact with a lot of subwebs.
- There needs to be a way to "break out" and not be implicitly in these algorithmic feeds
