I was not talking about creator mindset, just about publishing mindset and the resulting flood. This year people talk about “ai slop” content, but slop content existed even before ai.
The current tendency of the internet will benefit like SOME creators (not all of the internet creators put thoughts into their production) and just overwhelm the majority of passive users, making it more addictive for them and less healthy over years.
The minimal change that in my opinion tilts the situation in the healthy direction (but is absolutely not economically profitable and thus unrealistic), is to limit the posting frequency. Can’t make more than 1 publication per day/week. I bet most people would think just a bit more between they post, and they would not be able to spam content into twitter/reels etc.
Limitation of internet exposure time is the complement idea that is already quite spread. Timers, minimalist phones. But the person is controlling exposure, something about themselves.
Controlling/limiting the production is something about others. People, who would most benefit from thinking more between talking, would not go to such a website. And that us why I said it is unrealistic. Although it is possible to create a social meme to “make it cool” to use a website with limitations, and promote that “feed becomes less saturated with slop”.

Soo, what do you see as a better alternative?
Or mini-alternative, with some minimal changes that could create a better future for quality content and access to it?
