🧐I dont understand the dynamic here guys 🧐

I shitpost, great engagement.

I post poetry, middling engagement.

I post about accomplishments and feeling good, low engagement. 🧐

How do I do the do?

tbh apart from the obvious attention seekers like politics/sx/religion i wish there was a feature like fb which notifies you when a friend posts bc this site has copied Instagram's feed which is genuinely messed up and caused issues for many ppl including me as i don't even use ig but miss out my friends updates for a stupid meme and it makes it look like i don't care, so often it's not even about the content, just that your post isn't even visible on the feed

@Moosepantspatty i think its easier for you to make new connections here as compared to other social media as it's a niche site and you can read a person well through their profile

@SW-User maybe thats why i struggle. I have a reputation 😑

@SW-User I couldn’t agree more! I have very few that I follow. Get them in my fucking feed. This isn’t rocket science.

Mmkay, sparky (admin)?

People love shit and hate sincerity. I like your poetry though
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@JacksonBlue thank you for reading. Real sad state.
JacksonBlue · 36-40, M
@Moosepantspatty Dont take it personally against you...its just social media. Sex and Outrage are all people want.
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@JacksonBlue its just really frustrating...

personally what i notice is the more you are here and post the more interactions you get. i think it's like facebook where the algorithm shows you more if you post or interact more. i could be wrong
TexChik · F
@DeluxedEdition Since facebook owns this site, I suspect they are using the same algorithms.
DeluxedEdition · 26-30, F
@TexChik are you serious 🧐

it would make sense because the system is already set up and they wouldnt have to create a new system
TexChik · F
@DeluxedEdition That is what I was told

I wonder how much the algorithms filter by post length? I'd guess a shitpost has far less characters than poetry, and poetry less characters than a personal information sharing blog type post.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@Starcrossed not length, key words. This is shown by certain words triggering forced post ratings and hidden replies.

Want to confound the algorithm? Use big words! 🙃😈😁

Your post won't be viewed much.

It's pathetic and one reason I've lost interest.

And some of the old(er) members who should be a good example, chime in on those childish posts about bathroom habits, etc... 🤦‍♀️
Adogslife · 61-69, M
@Magenta truer words…
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
Seems about right.

People like to talk about themselves and personal posts about your own internal feelings and dialogue won't be as well received.

These types of posts are good, as we are all on the same site and experience a lot of the same things.

That other shit isnt engaging. Idk what to tell you.
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@Selah what is engaging to you though? How can I be vulnerable enough to engage with people.
Selah ·
@Moosepantspatty dont ask me i just post whatever and never think about engagement
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@Selah yeah, but people like you.
Nebula · 41-45, F
I'm It sure what you're after exactly, hahaha
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@Nebula how do make friends that don't leave.
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Moosepantspatty oh I'm not sure, everyone kinda comes and goes it seems
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
This is acceptable....

How do I do the do?

This will limit your views...

dynamic,
engagement,
accomplishments,

As I mentioned in a reply in here!

not length, key words. This is shown by certain words triggering forced post ratings and hidden replies.

Your post won't be viewed much.

What not to post...

The next didn't even recieve two views solely because of the font! The algorithm can't read unicode characters.

I really don't care if it can or not!

Want to use curse words without effecting your own post ratings? Use unicode special characters! Just make a keyboard shortcut for them.

🤷🏼‍♂️low engagement?
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@Lostpoet yeah, im here to talk to people, make new friends, get out of my comfort zone, and work through some trauma. Im not here to just make inane dick jokes 24/7
Lostpoet · M
@Moosepantspatty Dick jokes get my biggest view counts.
Moosepantspatty · 31-35, M
@Lostpoet funny how that works..

This is why this site is failing. Full of crap now that most seem to be entertained by. They don't like to think.
reflectingmonkey · 51-55, M
humans are just weird. that's why the news only talks about horrible things, good news doesn't get any views.
Rokasu · 36-40, M
Change that tag to an F dummy.

@LvChris that really didnt get all that much engagement to be quite honest. Lots of views and people disliking me. Seems a real shame if thats the solution; just cause I talk about that all the time doesnt mean its the only part of me.
