A lot like this?

I sometimes feel bad for posting random thoughts to the internet, because it feels like contributing to the growing mass of noise (which we call “content” euphemistically). In an increasingly phone-addicted world, do I want to give someone another reason to stay awhile on their device? If I’m going to contribute, let it be something that the reader takes with them, a tool to use, a laugh, a lesson, a story. Not more toxic positivity or negativity, but something authentic. Then again, sometimes it’s nice just to muse.

I agree with @Matthewcabin, Public.me feels like the right mix of the old web taking advantage of new tech. Fantastic. Now I want to subscribe or follow someone’s posts, and they show up in my iMessage as if I’m having a conversation with them, and I can respond directly from there and they become replies on their posts.
I have been thinking about the same topic that @anton mentions in his post here https://public.me/anton/91217c64-1e48-41d1-80c5-0b72df029011 My own lifelong contrarian nature feels like its folding in on itself, as I see contrarianism become normal behavior, and the fringe becomes the mainstream (which you can plainly see in the most recent US election). When the opposite of widely held ideas just becomes the new widely held idea… well then you have a problem, because it’s unlikely to be true as well.
