On #onlyzaps
I did a little research on the history of the ‘like’ button👍🏻.
It was first introduced during the early web 2.0 era.
There is no guarantee that it will last forever.
Just like the mother of the Facebook ‘like’ button said:
“To me, it's like that Einstein quote: "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." And there's an even a better quote by Buckminster Fuller: "If you want to change the system, just build a better one and the old one will fall away."
So my suspicion is that something more interesting will eventually come along and that type of internet will shift, hopefully. The experience of external validation compared to true inner validation doesn't even compare. I mean being really deeply personally satisfied with myself when I do something I'm incredibly proud of—that's nothing a Facebook like can compete with.”
