The people who make silo social networks unironically use the word content.

@adders i did - and [referenced it in one of my newsletters] - June 18th (https://johnphilpin.substack.com/p/all-else-follows) - scroll down to

The Value of People’s Work

my opening para :

”One aspect of work is creativity and related to that is an article by Om Malik published yesterday; ‘The Problem with Content’, which in turn referenced a piece written by Khoi Vinh ‘Writing Content vs. Writing Writing’ .. both talk about ‘content’, a topic I have written about; ‘Please do not call it content’ and ‘Owning your own work’ being a couple of recent examples.

(links provided in the article on the site)

... and then used one of his quotes.

I am on a mission to ban the word content.
