The internet was supposed to be for people who didn't fit in

Instead, we quantify how much people are liked.

It was supposed to be for oddities.. Now all my content is served via the same YouTube interface everyone else has, and they can control whether I'm good weird or bad weird. Even if I'm good weird, I'm probably too wordy for their algorithm.. Which.. If the algorithm were a person, they'd be the dumbest and smartest person in the room, you certainly couldn't talk to them. An intelligence that is unintelligible decides whether or not I'm popular on an interface i used to come to escape popularity contests.
