The texture of the work
As I’ve noted on several occasions, I’m thoroughly worn out by social networks and have been for many years now. I occasionally find myself keen to share something, and when I do, I almost immediately regret it, feeling that nobody saw it or cared; I tend to feel that I’m out on some weird limb, frustrating those who followed me for CSS workarounds twenty years ago. And so I retreat again.
I enjoyed this piece by Simon, how being quiet and doing work and not sharing is so valuable, but this particular passage about social media had me saying to myself, “it me.”
