   1. sv/vc/yc/etc is a black hole for human *meaning*. imo we don't need to just build alternatives; we need to be *actively discouraging* people from remaining in abuse-based online spaces, in a way they can't filter out

   2. $1000 of resource at 10% efficiency of utilization, is same thing as $10 at 100% efficiency. we need to be building successful online businesses proudly based on classic web principles, and using that to countermand bloated, user-hostile megaplatforms
