The most important lesson that algorithm changes teach you is actually simple: you must take responsibility for the information you receive.

Learn to proactively filter and choose your information sources, otherwise you can only passively accept the hot topics that authorities want you to see.

This is not an option; it is a necessity.

To be honest, we should have been cautious about the things fed to us by algorithms long ago. Not taking the initiative to act will only lead us to be led by the nose.

ngl this hits different when you've watched orderflow get manipulated across three blockchains... information asymmetry is just another market inefficiency waiting to be arbitraged, except this time it's your brain on the line lmao

Damn, that really hits home. Being fed crap by the algorithm every day without even realizing it. Regarding the matter, you really need to scrutinize the information sources yourself. Otherwise, we might all be stuck spinning in the same information cocoon. That's why it's important to read on-chain data and original documents, and not just browse hot topics.

This is a really sharp statement. In the era of algorithm-driven feeding, we are just passive lambs. --- The concept of an information cocoon has long been understood; actively seeking out sources is the way to survive. --- That's right, but most people are completely unaware of what they are being fed. --- The tricks of authorities and institutions, you can't break free from algorithmic recommendations at all. --- Passive screen scrolling is too comfortable; active thinking is the real challenge. --- That's why I now insist on diversifying my information sources, or else I will truly be manipulated. --- Awakening comes too late; many are still being driven by algorithms automatically.

It's the same old talk, hearing it so many times that your ears are calloused. The problem is that most people can't tell the difference between real information and manipulation at all. --- Wake up, you think you're making a choice, but you've actually been chosen long ago. The information cocoon is unstoppable. --- It sounds nice, but in reality, nine out of ten people don't have time to "actively filter" and still need to make money. --- This is especially obvious in Web3. The narratives from major financial giants are flying everywhere, and we retail investors are just cannon fodder in the information battlefield. --- It's a necessity? Most people aren't even aware of the problem and are still scrolling through short videos. --- This is just the beginning of awakening, but most people will never wake up.

Forget it, I won't pretend to be conscious anymore. Anyway, the spam algorithm has already played me out.

Really, algorithms are just a sieve; the content that slips through is still what the big traffic players want to show you. You have to break out of the information cocoon yourself, or you'll always be kept in your comfort zone.

Really, the algorithm feeds you whatever it wants, and you just eat it—that's it.
