RE: Social Media: In the End, It's All About Interaction and Engagement
Yeah, and organizations like Facebook have an entire department of developers called "retention specialists" whose sole function is to tweak the algorithms of people's feeds... in terms of getting people to stay for that dopamine fix.
Steemit is pretty cool in the way it has given rise to self-organizing communities, and you get to really enjoy being part of them. Like Steemitbloggers (which I am also part of).
I know about the "retention specialists" as have seen enough documentaries/videos on YouTube about them from former employees.
I agree that the community feel on steemit with the hundreds if discord channels gives its own kind of "hit" but that's in a good way as you're helping out fellow members and it's a positive spiral 🙂
