Everyone knows they should do data-first marketing.

But most people look at their numbers & go into emotional shutdown

The fix:
• remove your self-worth from the outcome
• treat it like a fun little experiment
• realize that the right diagnosis increases conversions fast

Another viral post here on bsky yesterday (>100 likes).

This time, I didn't plug a link to my website below to test.

I wanted to know if the profile produced the clicks or the post below.

It's the post below.

So if you want clicks due to your content, plug your links.

Social media algorithm = some code that someone wrote that decides what people see.

Not more, not less.

Last time I had a viral post, the clicks came from my link below the viral post. When I saw it went viral, I decided to plug my link below to experiment.

This time (yesterday), I didn't put a link below the post and therefore didn't get as many clicks.

So the profile link alone isn't enough.

I just write in english and am ignoring it.
Seems to work well lol

I've got those days too. Or just too much going on in life.
I feel the main thing is to enjoy what we do here, not forcing it.

You can use technology to your advantage or disadvantage.
It's a choice.

Social media algos show you more of those posts, the more you engage with them.
Just saying.

Social media algos show you more of the things you engage with.

Just like in real life: if you don't want to see it, stop engaging with it.

How the world should be and how it actually is are two different things.

When your illusions fall apart, it's indeed a shock for your system.
That's ok. You can get through.

I'm ok with that. Sometimes all it takes is a wake up call.

Stripping things away you don't need is a good thing.
Cutting everything off because you want to save money isn't.

Maybe a better CFO question: if we really need it, is there a suitable open source solution?

what an interesting perspective.
I'm actually both: a full stack dev and a physicist ;-)

Boring and evergreen are the best ones.
Because everyone needs a solution, but most people chase after fancy trends.
