I think social media platforms could challenge this notion. Traditionally, we’ve assumed that anything we share in the public sphere becomes instantly public. However, when you write something on a social media platform like Instagram, there might be no one who accesses your post for weeks or even months unless you actively engage with someone on the platform. Twitter (𝕏) or Nostr are more akin to blogs in terms of easy discoverability. You post something, and the platform allows people to find your post organically without your conscious intervention. On the other hand, Instagram is a very restrictive platform in this regard. This has led some individuals to feel desperate about building networks to gain exposure to others.
Sounds familiar? No? Then you need to study more about human society.
