IG algorithm

Nice read on how IG created its’ algorithm. Among ‘relationship’ the monitor the option ‘save’. First time for me I hear about the ‘save’ as a paramter.

Relationship

The algorithm assumes that people who’ve interacted with your account in the past will be interested in your new content. So when it decides whether to show a post to one of your followers, it evaluates your relationship:

• Do you follow each other?
• Did they search for you by name?
• Do you message each other, or leave comments?
• Do you tag each other in your posts?
• Do they save your posts?”

“How the streaming giant presents itself as a TV and movie super fan and uses meme-able, self-aware social media content to keep us watching more.”

“two significant goals for 2019. The first is to engage more on Reddit, where its presence is scarcest. The second is to bring more of its meme-happy approach into the real world, to merge the social energy with unique, in-the-flesh experiences that can then be turned into more social content.”

Social Mammoth

“This week from the greatest hits, an issue we need to work on: caring less about what other people think of us.

This post introduces The Social Survival Mammoth—the primitive part of our brain that is obsessed with fitting in and being liked and terrified of being excluded, embarrassed, or talked badly about behind our backs.

In the first part of the post, we talk about the mammoth and how his booming voice in our heads drowns out another character who speaks more quietly: our Authentic Voice. In the second part of the post, we look at why the Mammoth is actually very dumb and how, with the right amount of self-awareness, he can be tamed.”
