> Jev in a project

Explains the shallowness of the analysis, most of which are not products, and confirms my intuition that Jev is way over hyped and not capable of the things people claim it is. Give it a coin flip for the simplest example.

The submitted website is slop

It's been something going on for 50-60 years, since globalization, financialization, and deregulation became popular

Or forever, if you want to generalize to human nature

High correlation with the pill (birth control) and increased participation in the workforce by women. Also cross reference with wealth inequality levels.

The smart phones is correlation, not causation

Channeling Michael Sandel and Daron Acemoglu...

People want work which can support a family at a decent standard of living, contributes to the greater good, and most importantly earns them social recognition for those contributions.

> I don't know how to fix this.

(imo)

1. Small social like Discord, WhatsApp / facebook groups, Bandcamp (I was recently invited to a topical group there).

I have some designs for something like ATProto by fully permissioned and focused on small social modalities. I'm not interested in platforms with globalness, reposts/quotes, or blocking (fence sitting this one tbh)

2. Spending more time offline, with people in real life, then taking those social dynamics and interaction patterns back to online ones. We are currently doing the opposite as a society.

> The phone only connects to networks you choose

For most people, the phone records and relays network SSIDs it sees as well, even if not connecting to them.
