Learn about the business model of WordPress and how the popular content management system generates revenue to keeps its platform intact.

I just stopped liking posts altogether tbh

this is assuming its on art you normally wouldn't jump to reblog. i myself only rb stuff i really really like so .

The 'rude/demanding' tone would be stuff along the lines of "if you like but don't reblog I'll [threat]" which i see surprisingly often, both serious and more silly

Hypothetical Decentralised Social Media Protocol Stack

if we were to dream up the Next Social Media from first principles we face three problems. one is scaling hosting, the second is discovery/aggregation, the third is moderation.

hosting

hosting for millions of users is very very expensive. you have to have a network of datacentres around the world and mechanisms to sync the data between them. you probably use something like AWS, and they will charge you an eye-watering amount of money for it. since it's so expensive, there's no way to break even except by either charging users to access your service (which people generally hate to do) or selling ads, the ability to intrude on their attention to the highest bidder (which people also hate, and go out of their way to filter out). unless you have a lot of money to burn, this is a major barrier.

the traditional internet hosts everything on different servers, and you use addresses that point you to that server. the problem with this is that it responds poorly to sudden spikes in attention. if you self-host your blog, you can get DDOSed entirely by accident. you can use a service like cloudflare to protect you but that's $$$. you can host a blog on a service like wordpress, or a static site on a service like Github Pages or Neocities, often for free, but that broadly limits interaction to people leaving comments on your blog and doesn't have the off-the-cuff passing-thought sort of interaction that social media does.

the middle ground is forums, which used to be the primary form of social interaction before social media eclipsed them, typically running on one or a few servers with a database + frontend. these are viable enough, often they can be run with fairly minimal ads or by user subscriptions (the SomethingAwful model), but they can't scale indefinitely, and each one is a separate bubble. mastodon is a semi-return to this model, with the addition of a means to use your account on one bubble to interact with another ('federation').

the issue with everything so far is that it's an all-eggs-in-one-basket approach. you depend on the forum, instance, or service paying its bills to stay up. if it goes down, it's just gone. and database-backend models often interact poorly with the internet archive's scraping, so huge chunks won't be preserved.

scaling hosting could theoretically be solved by a model like torrents or IPFS, in which every user becomes a 'server' for all the posts they download, and you look up files using hashes of the content. if a post gets popular, it also gets better seeded! an issue with that design is archival: there is no guarantee that stuff will stay on the network, so if nobody is downloading a post, it is likely to get flushed out by newer stuff. it's like link rot, but it happens automatically.

IPFS solves this by 'pinning': you order an IPFS node (e.g. your server) not to flush a certain file so it will always be available from at least one source. they've sadly mixed this up in cryptocurrency, with 'pinning services' which will take payment in crypto to pin your data. my distaste for a technology designed around red queen races aside, I don't know how pinning costs compare to regular hosting costs.

theoretically you could build a social network on a backbone of content-based addressing. it would come with some drawbacks (posts would be immutable, unless you use some indirection to a traditional address-based hosting) but i think you could make it work (a mix of location-based addressing for low-bandwidth stuff like text, and content-based addressing for inline media). in fact, IPFS has the ability to mix in a bit of address-based lookup into its content-based approach, used for hosting blogs and the like.

as for videos - well, BitTorrent is great for distributing video files. though I don't know how well that scales to something like Youtube. you'd need a lot of hard drive space to handle the amount of Youtube that people typically watch and continue seeding it.

aggregation/discovery

the next problem is aggregation/discovery. social media sites approach this problem in various ways. early social media sites like LiveJournal had a somewhat newsgroup-like approach, you'd join a 'community' and people would post stuff to that community. this got replaced by the subscription model of sites like Twitter and Tumblr, where every user is simultaneously an author and a curator, and you subscribe to someone to see what posts they want to share.

this in turn got replaced by neural network-driven algorithms which attempt to guess what you'll want to see and show you stuff that's popular with whatever it thinks your demographic is. that's gotta go, or at least not be an intrinsic part of the social network anymore.

it would be easy enough to replicate the 'subscribe to see someone's recommended stuff' model, you just need a protocol for pointing people at stuff. (getting analytics such as like/reblog counts would be more difficult!) it would probably look similar to RSS feeds: you upload a list of suitably formatted data, and programs which speak that protocol can download it.

the problem of discovery - ways to find strangers who are interested in the same stuff you are - is more tricky. if we're trying to design this as a fully decentralised, censorship-resistant network, we face the spam problem. any means you use to broadcast 'hi, i exist and i like to talk about this thing, come interact with me' can be subverted by spammers. either you restrict yourself entirely to spreading across a network of curated recommendations, or you have to have moderation.

moderation

moderation is one of the hardest problems of social networks as they currently exist. it's both a problem of spam (the posts that users want to see getting swamped by porn bots or whatever) and legality (they're obliged to remove child porn, beheading videos and the like). the usual solution is a combination of AI shit - does the robot think this looks like a naked person - and outsourcing it to poorly paid workers in (typically) African countries, whose job is to look at reports of the most traumatic shit humans can come up with all day and confirm whether it's bad or not.

for our purposes, the hypothetical decentralised network is a protocol to help computers find stuff, not a platform. we can't control how people use it, and if we're not hosting any of the bad shit, it's not on us. but spam moderation is a problem any time that people can insert content you did not request into your feed.

possibly this is where you could have something like Mastodon instances, with their own moderation rules, but crucially, which don't host the content they aggregate. so instead of having 'an account on an instance', you have a stable address on the network, and you submit it to various directories so people can find you. by keeping each one limited in scale, it makes moderation more feasible. this is basically Reddit's model: you have topic-based hubs which people can subscribe to, and submit stuff to.

the other moderation issue is that there is no mechanism in this design to protect from mass harassment. if someone put you on the K*w*f*rms List of Degenerate Trannies To Suicidebait, there'd be fuck all you can do except refuse to receive contact from strangers. though... that's kind of already true of the internet as it stands. nobody has solved this problem.

to sum up

primarily static sites 'hosted' partly or fully on IPFS and BitTorrent

a protocol for sharing content you want to promote, similar to RSS, that you can aggregate into a 'feed'

directories you can submit posts to which handle their own moderation

no ads, nobody makes money off this

honestly, the biggest problem with all this is mostly just... getting it going in the first place. because let's be real, who but tech nerds is going to use a system that requires you to understand fuckin IPFS? until it's already up and running, this idea's got about as much hope as getting people to sign each others' GPG keys. it would have to have the sharp edges sanded down, so it's as easy to get on the Hypothetical Decentralised Social Network Protocol Stack as it is to register an account on tumblr.

but running over it like this... I don't think it's actually impossible in principle. a lot of the technical hurdles have already been solved. and that's what I want the Next Place to look like.

this is a post about money, particularly how tumblr makes it.

ok, here's my two cents to @photomatt if he's reading. I too am an open source dev, I also run wordpress. you're a brilliant dev and tumblr is genuinely wonderful when it works. but you too must me upset that WordPress made you no money so you forked it off into tumblr, right?

the issue users are missing is that porn bots are keeping the lights on at tumblr. they pay MONEY to tumblr to get their posts in front of your face. in fact, I would bet a good amount of money tumblr not only ignores this behavior because it's upwards of 50% of their revenue, but actively encourages it. you haven't seen matt mention it once. theyre not going away because if they did tumblr would go under tomorrow.

on the other hand, these trans women getting banned are free loading. 99% of the userbase makes tumblr none of it's money. you all see the culture without seeing the business, and Matt is unfortunately between the money and the culture at best.

finally, and here's the real conspiracy, there's political incentive to silence trans women in particular. like it or not, trans women are one of the biggest political issues in america, and companies don't want to advertise on a platform that disagrees with them politically. trans women are more likely to be anti biden and anti Democrat. grass roots far left. theyre starting to realize the very real danger that gen z isn't going to vote for them, and so economic inventive tells tumblr to silence trans women. advertisers and large corporations shape social media politics with their dollars: they run more ads when the site does things they like, like silencing political radicals. we didn't get silenced when we were kids because we couldn't vote. now they're scared.

this isn't just a problem on tumblr.

the old guard is shaking in their boots. will you be on the right side of history, Matt? I doubt it. calling yourself an open source advocate while running proprietary tumblr is such a fucking joke. selling user data for profit like the rest of the clowns in the tech industry, not even seeing how your sites politics are being influenced by the elite and the Almighty Dollar.

20 Years Married

This is a messed up number. 20 years is a person. 20 years is a whole ass person. 20 years is a person who has opinions and gets into fights on the internet about how to properly format a ship name. 20 years is the longest project I’ve ever done and all I had to do for the majority of it was show up. 20 years is just a big slush of now all in my memory, obviously not right now but close enough to now that it’s not a lifetime ago.

It’s just… sure. Now I’m 41. I’ve been married to Fox for 20 years.

I am 21. I have just become married. The wedding ceremony was strange, because I’m sure I was involved in making choices but I couldn’t tell you what they were. We had a profiterole cake. Fox cut it with an axe. The day after this event we go to the prerelease for the Magic The Gathering set 5th Dawn. Fox plays in it too, despite not liking it. In the prerelease pool, she opens a foil Platinum Angel. I wind up getting that pool. When I place fourth in the tournament or something like that, I give her the card. I am vaguely haunted to this day of potential poor sportsmanship play with an opponent who by no doubts was a child.

I am 23. A friend, inspired by the Valentines day free trial events invites us to play City of Heroes with them. Fox plays around in the character maker, and spends hours making characters that wind up becoming mainstays of just our everyday conversation. We don’t know how years later, we wind up standing in the game as the servers shut down. Backbeat stands atop a Kings Row skyscraper as the server shuts down, and bellows with tears in her eyes This is my city. It goes dark.

I am 25. D&D 4th edition has been released to much fanfare. Fox and I have moved to a new house, in a place that used to be called Steeltown, with our pet ferrets. I am reluctant to enjoy this new system, disliking the skill system simplification and the way that the multiclassing and prestige class system has been stripped out in favour of a more ‘approachable’ system. A friend points out to me that the system makes her more likely to play, and isn’t that the thing I actually care about? Fox expresses how the rules for 4th edition make her more likely to want to run a game rather than just play in them. I don’t know when I came to like the system more, but these two moments are part of it.

I am 29. Fox is struggling with University. I spend my days repairing computers for a charity store. We save money as best we can between conventions to make enough money to sell art and prints and commissions of her work, as I crew the table. A friend has started up making miniatures and run an indiegogo campaign because kickstarter didn’t exist in Australia yet. Fox is struggling with University. Our pets aren’t doing great, because they’re delicate little creatures. Fox is struggling. I don’t know what I can do and how I can help. I don’t know if I do.

I am 30. Fox hears my anxiety about having never successfully made anything, about my starting university, and presents me with a blog. It is named after an AI that lived in the head of one of my City of Heroes characters, and is itself a reference to the way DOS videogame files would start. She tells me she knows I need something, some place to write, something to just have in case I want it. It’s a WordPress blog, something she’s very proud of getting to work so well so easily. She gets better and better at Cascading Style Sheets.

I am 31. I have started University. The last of the ferrets die. In the process of medicating the last of them, I had to administer honey to him. We don’t keep honey in the house any more because the smell upsets Fox. I didn’t realise that she avoided the honey I kept in the house until I am 39, and stopped buying it when I became the primary shopper. This feels like it’s part of ‘now,’ something documentable on the blog, something normal and everyday. It is ten years ago. Sometime between here and next year, we get Elli and Fox gets a job. Elli does something for Fox I can’t do, and the struggle becomes less like a wall and more like steps.

I am 32. Fox guides me through the process of turning my game design Middleware into a professionally presented and formatted game. It is very hard to do. I do not like feeling like I am being corrected on things that seem to me like they don’t matter. I go along with it because I trust her but I do not like doing so and I can tell that I am being frustrated at every step. I know I’m bad at this, I know I’m so awful at being a coworker. I feel so bad about what I’m doing and then being told I’m not doing it good enough just makes me want to give up. I don’t. We make things. We go to conventions and we sell things.

I am 35. Fox comes out to me as asexual (autochorissexual to be specific).

I am 37. The Pandemic becomes the most important thing in the world. Every protocol in my life has to adapt because Fox is in an at-risk group for COVID. I start wearing a mask and doing the shopping to minimise her exposure to risk factors. I become concerned that I’m doing something that deprives her of agency because she can’t do things with me in public the same way. I still wear a mask every time I leave the house. I still worry about that.

I am 40.

I am 15. I am at anime club and there is this lady there, who looks older than me, more thoughtful, and she’s laughing and joking and enjoying anime and talking about around me. I’m too shy to talk. I don’t know how to start a conversation. I run my mouth to someone else and get in trouble for spoilers. I wind up offering her some chocolate and run in fear.

I am 41.

Every night, for the past twenty years, I have said the same thing, every day, as the last thing I say. I tell Fox I love her.

I have a rule that I don’t go to bed until I think I can do that. It keeps me from going to bed and sulking. It keeps me from being bitter and cruel. It keeps me from thinking of my angers and unhappiness as that important, because if they were, it wouldn’t be something I can put aside in the name of going to sleep.

It’s hard to signify twenty years. It’s not some grand or significant project. It’s just now. It’s normal. It’s a decision I made when I was seventeen and committed to when I was twenty one. And I’m glad I get to keep doing it, and keep saying the same thing, every night, and hopefully get better at all the things I’m bad at in this big project.

hi friend! i have had a dream of creating a publication of some kind that uplifts artists/writers in my area. i have been so lost at what i want to or should be doing, so i think this might be a good time to strike!! i'm reaching out to the student magazines at local colleges to see if they have any advice, but i wanted to see if you had any advice to offer as someone who might not have had something so significant (like a school) backing you and your litmag! Thank you so much for everything!!

hello anon, and thanks for your patience!! [full disclosure this was completed last week but in my drafts im sorry!!]

the first piece i have is to read: read mags that print a variety of types of work, those that are established and upstarts and everyone in between. this isn't only to get a sense of what the literary landscape is like rn, but also to find patterns: what do these sites have in common? how about their submission guidelines, norms, expectations?

^ in regard to the above, i also *strongly* recommend you submit and go through the publication process in at least a few mags before starting your own. maybe you have already! in any case, think about what kinds of editorial support/communication/practice you've liked and disliked. what kind of editor are you/do you want to be? if you're not sure yet, consider joining the reading team at a magazine, or editing a folio or guest issue! going from no experience to EIC is not a great plan, in no small part because you learn who and what you are as an editor, and who and what you want to edit, as you gain more experience. joining an established publication in some capacity is something i recommend to *everyone* interested in starting a lit mag. that is, i do not recommend attempting to start a publication if you have no experience on a masthead already.

presuming that you do have this experience, you're going to have some new considerations for your new publication in addition to those you're familiar with:

probably-familiar things to consider:

who is my demographic (do I have any restrictions on who submits?)

what are my values? (this is what you put in your about/mission statement/submission guidelines. for example, I don't submit to magazines who do not make their antizionism/pro-palestine stance clear)

who are my coworkers (do I want to run this thing on my own, or get multiple editors on with me? do I want to just make a quick squarespace site or have a designer onboard?)

what genres, lengths, and other specifications do I want for submissions (docx vs pdf vs rtf? how much do you actually have time to read? what do you feel confident in your ability to assess?)

where can people find us? (social media? twitter/x is still a home base for a huge portion of publications, despite everything. ig has a fair few. tumblr hasn't been very successful in lit mag world - but maybe you'll change that? there's a fair but niche showing on bsky and mastodon. facebook, as with everything else, is for boomers with shit politics.)

probably-unfamiliar things to consider:

what's your title? is a domain available for that title? how are you paying for the domain?

how about website hosting? (squarespace, weebly, google sites, wordpress, something else? is your site accessible? do you need to make extra access considerations, e.g. if publishing visual art?)

do you pay? how much? (without institutional backing, the money will either come from your pocket or donations, or both. if you want to pay but are broke, you could set up a fundraiser - but no promises on people following through.)

what submissions platform will you use? (email? manywor(l)ds does this, and we like it. submittable? pricy, but streamlined. moksha/oleda/duotrope? i mean....you do you but i find them weird)

how often will you be open for submissions? will you solicit any, or be all-slush? (I take a 90/10 approach in favor of slush, personally. slushpile 4 lyfe xoxo)

do you charge fees? (hint: DON'T)

where are you listed? (chillsubs, duotrope, the submission grinder, and other sites aggregate lit mag opportunities. you should get yourself here!)

how often do you want to publish? how many pieces per issue? (consider how much time you actually have. this is all unpaid work, too.)

(if you have an editorial staff beyond yourself) how often are you meeting? how are decisions being made? how are you handling conflicts of interest?

there are also things that become relevant as you begin your mag: like, keeping track of published pieces eligible/nominated for prizes, making editorial friends/comrades (CRUCIAL), managing harassment and spam in the submission process, and other issues you'll encounter just in the daily practice of operating a magazine. remember, more than anything, that you're part of a community - or more accurately, an archipelago of communities and subcultures. this is why participation is so important, and imo necessary, as a pre- and continuous co-requisite to 'having' a lit mag. you're there to fill a niche, not pick out and publish All the Good Writing Ever. This will help you let go of great pieces that 'don't quite work' or just 'aren't a fit' (editors are serious when we say we reject a fuckton of amazing pieces every issue) and let go of submissions you yourself receive rejections for.

anyway, i hope this helps give you a few places to start. in short, focus on community, reciprocity, and building slow&steady experience and expertise (as well as your own editorial styles/techniques) vs. launching into developing your own thing right away!

Submitted via Google Form: Gender Neutral Names

I'm trying to name my characters.

I see there are plenty of baby name charts with gender breakdown popularity charts. But I have no idea why so many names listed as gender netural, one gender does not even appear on the chart or maybe just on the very bottom a year or two. Yet it's gender neutral? What makes it gender neutral if it's so far off. Very lopsided 95%/5% charts, I can kind of get, but to not even show up?

In fact any name can always have exceptions. I know some people both real and fictional with names that do not get listed as gender neutral but are in fact the opposite gender than listed.

How does a name become gender neutral when the occasional rare person just decides to go the opposite (which is inevitable) unless it's actually a trend and starts showing up on charts.

Is there any kind of sexism involved? I don't know but if I apply the same kind of reasoning with hair. People still keep calling long hair for females and short hair for males, instead of all gender neutral hairstyles. Yet there is way more instances of females with short hair and men with long hair than it seems for those names that are so lopsided the other gender doesn't make the chart. Yet the name gets called gender neutral and hair still gets divided.

Tex: Gender is applied to a name on the parent’s or individual’s say-so, and when the name itself is used for another child, the gendered connotations of the original bearer of the name carry over or not as a situation develops.

Sexism is an inherent, though unfortunate, part of gender as a role in society. This is mostly created as a means to make someone feel better about themselves, usually by denigrating someone easily identifiable as Different ™ than them. Sexism is as ideologically easy to adopt as racism, in that it’s usually the first thing someone’s eyes can find when they want to treat someone poorly due to their own perceived deficiencies.

Modern cultural perceptions aside, it seems as if you’re sourcing your worldbuilding and interpretations from a narrow band of sources. On tumblr and WordPress, which our blog is hosted on, there’s quite a few worldbuilding posts related specifically to names that are quickly accessible with a keyword search in your browser of choice. If you have particular cultures already in mind, those are useful additional keywords to help you, and can give you multiple perspectives on how gender may be variably defined.

Licorice: - Oh, names and naming is such an interesting topic! 

Since it’s your own world you are building, you can decide on the naming system they are going to use. Are you trying to create a naming system in which nobody can tell someone’s gender from the name alone? Some of the naming systems in our own world are largely gender neutral. I am told Punjabi is one language in which the majority of the names can be used for any and all genders. 

According to the Linguistics stack exchange, Chinese is a language in which names are not gendered. Bear in mind that I am not a Chinese speaker, and I’m happy to be corrected if this information is wrong, but apparently there is no set of words that are reserved for “proper names” in China. “​​In China you can use any word or words (max. 2 characters) you like as your name provided it sounds good and you find it meaningful.”

Unless I’m much mistaken, the naming systems for many First Nations follow the same principle. You could have a look at these different naming systems for inspiration. Several African countries I lived in gave children names that expressed their wishes for the child’s future - “Talent” or “Success” - or reflected the circumstances surrounding the birth - “No Money” and “Lonely” were two people I knew personally - or even the parents’ wishes for their own future. I knew a guy, the last-born of twelve, whose name was “No More.”

If you want to move away from names that in English are traditionally associated with one or other gender, you could

Invent names, as Tolkien and JRR Martin do. If you choose this route but want to avoid gendering your names, avoid ending sounds that are traditionally associated with the feminine (e.g. -a, -ia) for girls’ names or sounds traditionally associated with the masculine (e.g. -us, -ius) for boys’ names. 

Use ordinary nouns and adjectives as names. In this way you can also express the things your in-world culture values. Are they careful environmental custodians? Then they may give their children names associated with nature: “Summer Rain”, “Green Twig”, “Feathered Nest.” Are they warlike and aggressive? They may give their children names that commemorate weapons or martial qualities. “Fierce Helmet”, “Sturdy Shield” “Steadfast Courage” and so on.

(and that reminds me of the famous Puritan whose parents used names to express their faith: Praisegod Barebones)

The master of the use of names in worldbuilding is Ursula K LeGuin. If you like, take a look at some of her short fiction or novels to see what techniques she uses.

@staff I'm setting up a professional blog on WordPress for my business, and I was testing how to share my posts in other websites and social media. I set up all the options, reposted an article from my Facebook page, and checked.

Facebook page: success

Mastodon: success

Instagram: success

LinkedIn: success

Tumblr: nothing happened

How does Automattic expect Tumblr to ever be profitable when basic integration functions don't even work between their two flagship products? Not to mention, the post editor on WordPress, although fairly annoying, has many more features, less limitations and includes SEO tools and AI marketing assistance and integrated stores and a ton of plugins. No wonder Tumblr keeps losing money, it's a blogging platform where blogging is extremely inconvenient compared to their former main competitor/current sister website. Honestly it didn't even cross my mind to make the Tumblr account the main one, I just naturally assumed "well this is professional so I should use wordpress", and I've been in this place for nearly a decade. And if Automattic itself doesn't respect their own product enough to fix basic functionality issues like that when they did put in the work to make it work with Mastodon, a website that came out last Tuesday, then how do they expect anyone else to take it seriously as a business?

You wanna make money with Tumblr? Give it WooCommerce integration, payment plugins and premium creator tools, just like you did in your other website that allegedly does the same thing as this one. Etsy is in decline, Patreon is under fire, and you could easily take in the refugees from both those communities if you just treated this website like a business. It's insane that I can't activate tips on my Tumblr because I don't live in one of seven privileged countries while on WordPress I can just put a PayPal button on the top of my blog like a guitar case on the sidewalk. It honestly makes me mad that this place has been known for a decade to be full of artists and craftspeople and opinionated cult leaders but never even considered to give them the chance to open a merch store. Do you realise how many websites are making dough on commissions for things people could easily sell here? People who by the way have to constantly figure out new and inventive ways to circumvent Tumblr's ass policies of not letting users make any money from their platform directly in any way. And instead you bought a streaming function from some Canadian grifters. This place is broke because it wants to be.

Nicholas Nickleby: Ralph Nickleby [INTJ 8w9]

MBTI Type: INTJ Ralph is an industrious schemer who makes most of his money in the stock market by reading trends and seeing how he could use people to his advantage. No sooner that his brother lies cold and dead in the ground than does he figure out how to get rid of Nicholas, so he can use his niece, Kate, to influence his investors and potentially marry her off to one of them—he doesn’t care…

[ctrl-shift-escape]

Brief tracker of the events I can remember for next time:

Jan 11th 5:30 am: I wake up to my alarm in various states of shock. I might not react to the alarm until much later depending on whether I land the end right. Also figure out a way to shut off my alarm clock: it is getting a bit annoying hearing about the whole Wordpress and Twitter thing honestly.

Jan 11th 11:30 am: The housefire I mentioned happens. Well, it's not actually a housefire but an apartment fire because someone leaves the stove on. This occurs around six blocks down from where I live. The fire does not kill anyone, and it is quickly contained.

Jan 11th 2:00 pm: A shooting occurs on the opposite side of harbor where I live. It involves several high school kids and the local Checkers. Police state they don't know why the shooting happened or why the high school students are out of school in the first place. Two of the high school kids are in critical condition. I will follow up on this story later.

Jan 11th 7:00 pm: An 11-year old boy is run over by a driver in a hit-and-run. Witnesses say the driver struck the child, paused and then drove on, jumping the curb and smacking a mailbox while they did so. The boy is in critical condition. I could not find any news of this during the next three days or whether the child died or get better.

Jan 11th 11:00 pm: Powerball Drawing: 04 08 46 47 48 05.

Jan 12th 2:00 am: Not sure if this is a gun or an engine backfiring, but I do hear something that sounds like a gunshot very close. This is also the time where the apartment hallway is most clear. Goal is to walk the hallway.

Jan 12th 9:00 am: A 23-year old man named Maurice is discovered dead inside his apartment, closer to downtown than the harbor. He's been dead for a lot longer. I'm not sure if I should touch this one because I really don't want people to think I'm the murderer.

Jan 12th 2:00 pm: This is more for me than an important event. The boss of my current commission (and several past ones) goes to yell at me for the work I didn't do because it is tedious to keep doing it cause of the time loop. I should really just post the code onto Tumblr and just copy it every day to send to him. But at the same time, I really just want to do something that would make his life a lot less enjoyable.

Jan 12th 4:00 pm: The big McDonalds fire happens several blocks down but closer to the city than the harbor. A frycook panics and throws water at a deep fryer fire, resulting in flaming oil splattering all over the place and catching more stuff on fire. Fire Department is called and attempts to cross over Central Ave (why are there are so many streets called Central Ave?), only to find that a three-vehicle accident blocks the street, including one rollover. The McDonalds fire is part of a block complex of shops and takes out that entire row of shops and apartments. Several people die as a result.

Jan 12th 7:30 pm: A bodega is robbed at knifepoint. The cashier is stabbed after telling the robbers there is no money and dies. Police is offering a cash prize for the identity of robbers.

Jan 12th 11:00 pm: My boss gets even madder and starts sending very angry texts about how worthless I am and how I should be grateful he's giving me scraps and that I should be honored to know that he's a big tech bigshot. He never mentions where though. I should probably block my boss from the very start. This is a thought.

Jan 13th 5:00 am: Something hits my window, I noticed. I live on the 4th floor. It might be a bird.

Jan 13th 9:00 am: Boss says I should prepare to lawyer up unless I do my work right now.

Jan 13th 5:00 pm: The first of several emergency text messages come through the phone about staying inside and stuff. I try calling the phone number, the nuclear power plant, and the police department. All of them are busy assisting other callers or just redirect me to somewhere else.

Jan 13th 7:21 pm: The power plant explodes. The loop resets.

[wainswright]

This is my googled 30 min research so i'm just guessing for fun.

Looks like either you need to be a hip place that attracts so many new users (makes a splash in numbers for investors?) and get good press as THE place to be in order to attract advertiser dollars OR

Make your core usability lock behind a paywall like spotify, which is cashflow positive, but can't tell if this worked out for medium (probably not)- (and looks like Substack isn't doing too well) This focuses less on advertisers and more on users.

Alternatives? Monetizing content + ads on selected produced articles? That's a niche that isn't filled.

You know there's this whole style of paying for webnovels in China or something, like if they didn't ruin the concept of wattpad by viewing users... like that, instead of treating them like content creators a la Youtube. Which looks like it's going strong.

In lieu of nonprofit, I guess you'd have to get a community of people producing good content that the site made a no brainer to use- and a kind of distributive ad process like uh... tiktok.... hm..... untargeted is that big of a deal? But it'd take advantage of the tumblr social pathways- the ability to monetize a post if you chose. Can't remember much about post+ but that came out of nowhere... I don't remember having any idea how to use it. I hope it was something like- you can choose to monetize certain posts behind a paywall? That's the only way you could do it, right?

Fanfic concerns: nobody on youtube worries about this when making videos about established properties tbh. I guess don't write fanfic specifically and put that behind a paywall (or do and see where this leads us) but fanart is free game? How confusing. Home of fandom could be like.... reviewers.... taste makers..... god tumblr actually IS good at stealth word of mouth marketing for a lot of properties. Very funny.

But if I was thinking informational- or like "how to recognize chords", or news feed that would be an idea I didn't even think of when post+ in it's unclear use state came out.

Okay, maybe that wouldn't work- we come here to shitpost. Maybe you could have the option of making a goodpost blog (original posts only) behind a paywall. But a general fee, like spotify charges $5 for access to all songs, instead for monthly access to paywalled content? The response would be a little different now, I'd imagine.

Both options, as well as an option to see blogs more automatically as the constructed sites and not just on the dash like squarespace? that's doing well, though I've seen random complaints about the nature of the not-html style site constructions. Complexity was mentioned as part of the issue retaining users along with lack of immediate interaction/reason to stay, but showing off various blogs as their own sites and then letting you follow the author of the blogs on the dash seem like it'd work out..........

It retains the free functionality but the alternative would be presented as a sidegig.

Chaotic patreon.....Patreon and Reddit are private, with Reddit maybe having an IPO by the end of 2023, so I'll assume they aren't doing super great. Tumblr up for IPO soon?

Best case scenario for site survival: it's sold to huge company that can eat the cost of operations until the site is made hip to advertisers, or shrug.

But there really isnt a good microblogging site- that allows all the ability to make a searchable blog..... (I see maybe they were thinking they could just use the social part of tumblr and somehow get wordpress to show up on the rss feeds) but yeah there's not really any social capacity baked into to wordpress, on lj I would go over to see what people were doing for that day and read their comments. That site does live on in spirit in dreamwidth

Bluesky and mastodon have that character limit and you can't format anything, but if they get successful they can rake in ad money. I don't know about this. Can't even remember what pillowfort is like but I remember there was some weirdness with the founders that scared me off, I didn't think it was going to last well.

Affiliate Marketing For Beginners: What It Is + How to Succeed

What is affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing is where you promote another company’s product or service. When someone purchases through your affiliate link, you earn a commission. These commissions are usually a percentage of the sale price or a fixed amount.

Why should you do affiliate marketing?

Here are two reasons why you should consider doing affiliate marketing:

1. Low-cost and low risk

Starting a business can be risky and expensive because there are upfront costs for products, employees, equipment, rent, etc. With affiliate marketing, all you need is a website. If it doesn’t work out, you’ve only wasted time and a little bit of money.

2. Easy to scale

A typical salesperson only sells products from one company. As an affiliate marketer, you can promote products from many different companies and earn commissions from all of them.

How does affiliate marketing work?

Drive traffic to your affiliate site;

You’ve created great content. The next step is to get more people to read it, so they will click on your affiliate links.

Here are three traffic strategies to consider:

A. Paid traffic

This is where you pay for traffic to your site. You can do this using pay-per-click (PPC) ads.

The advantage of paid traffic is that the moment you start paying, you get traffic.

However, there are some downsides.

First, running ads will dig into your profits. It’s quite normal for advertisers to lose money before they make it… if they ever do.

Secondly, once you stop paying for ads, your traffic will stop.

Generally speaking, ads are a great traffic strategy if you’re part of a high-paying affiliate program and can make the numbers work.

But if you’re completely new to paid marketing and have no marketing budget (or are working with lower commission programs like Amazon Associates), then it might not be such a great idea.

B. SEO

SEO is the practice of optimizing pages to rank high in search engines like Google.

For as long as you can rank high in the search engines for your target keywords, you’ll get consistent and passive traffic.

On the most basic level, SEO is about:

Understanding what your target customers are searching for

Creating content around those topics

Making sure Google understands clearly what your page is about

Acquiring or earning links to push your pages higher in the search engines

Ensuring Google can find, crawl, and index your content

C. Build an email list

Email lists allow you to communicate with your readers anytime.

Use them to tell fans about new content and keep them coming back to your site for more. This leads to more affiliate clicks and sales.

To build an email list, you need to persuade the readers on your site to sign up. That means offering something valuable, like a free eBook, an email course, and more.

Affiliate marketing tools::--

Tools are your friends in affiliate marketing. They help you do your job faster and easier.

Here are some of our recommended affiliate marketing tools:

Ahrefs — All-in-one SEO tool that’ll help you research keywords to target, audit your website, research your competitors, find content ideas, and more.

Rank Math — WordPress plugin that ensures your pages have optimal on-page SEO.

Google Search Console — Find and fix technical errors on your website, submit sitemaps, see structured data issues, check your Core Web Vitals, and more.

Google Analytics — Provides crucial data and analytics for your affiliate website.

Thirsty Affiliates — Keep track of your affiliate links, see statistics to know which links are getting the most clicks, and prevent others from easily copying your website and swapping the links with their own affiliate IDs.

About This Gig

Amazon Affiliate Autopilot Auto Blog Store Website: A Comprehensive Guide to Automating Your Online Business

Are you looking for a way to make money online without having to put in too much effort?

If so, then an Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website may be the perfect solution for you. With this type of website, you can easily create an automated online store that will generate passive income for you. In this article, we’ll discuss what an Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website is and how it works. We’ll also provide some tips on how to get started with your own automated online store.

What Is an Amazon Affiliate Autopilot Auto Blog Store Website?

An Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website is a type of website that allows you to create an automated online store that will generate passive income for you. This type of website uses Amazon’s affiliate program to promote products from their marketplace and earn commissions when customers purchase those products through your site. The great thing about this type of website is that it requires minimal effort on your part as all the work is done automatically. All you have to do is set up the site and let it run on its own.

How Does It Work?

The first step in setting up your Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website is to sign up for the Amazon Associates program. Once you’ve done this, you can start creating content for your site by writing reviews and articles about products from the Amazon marketplace. You can also use images and videos from the marketplace as well as other sources such as YouTube or Flickr. Once your content is ready, you can add links back to the product pages on Amazon so that customers can purchase them directly from your site. When they do so, you will earn a commission from each sale made through your site.

The next step is to set up an automated system that will post new content regularly on your site without any manual intervention from you. This can be done using plugins such as WordPress or other content management systems (CMS). You can also use RSS feeds or other services such as IFTTT (If This Then That) which allow you to automate tasks such as posting new content or sending out emails when new products are added to the marketplace.

Once everything is set up, all that’s left for you to do is sit back and watch as your automated online store generates passive income for you without any additional effort on your part!

Benefits of Using an Amazon Affiliate Autopilot Auto Blog Store Website -

There are many benefits associated with using an Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website including:

• Passive Income: As mentioned above, one of the main benefits of using this type of website is that it allows you to generate passive income without having to put in any additional effort after setting it up initially.

• Low Maintenance: Another great benefit of using this type of website is that it requires minimal maintenance once it has been set up properly. All the work involved in keeping it running smoothly will be done automatically by the plugins or services used in setting it up initially.

• Increased Visibility: Having a presence on the internet can help increase visibility for both yourself and any products or services offered through your site which could lead to more sales and commissions earned over time.

• Cost-Effective: Setting up an automated online store with this type of website requires minimal upfront costs compared with traditional brick-and-mortar stores which require significant investments in terms of both time and money before they become profitable businesses.

Tips For Getting Started With Your Own Automated Online Store

Now that we’ve discussed what an Amazon affiliate autopilot auto blog store website is and how it works, let’s take a look at some tips for getting started with creating one yourself:

• Research Products: Before setting up your automated online store, take some time to research different products available through the Amazon marketplace so that you know which ones are most likely going to be popular among customers who visit your site. This will help ensure that any content created around these products will be more likely to generate sales and commissions over time.

• Create Quality Content: When creating content for your site, make sure that it provides value rather than just being promotional in nature as this could turn off potential customers who visit your site looking for helpful information rather than just trying to sell them something right away.

• Utilize Social Media Platforms: Utilizing social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc., can help increase visibility for both yourself and any products offered through your automated online store which could lead more people visiting and potentially making purchases through it over time

• Monitor Performance Regularly: Finally, make sure that you monitor performance regularly by tracking metrics such as page views, click-through rates, etc. so that adjustments can be made if necessary in order to improve performance over time.
