Social media makes no sense

You can spend hours researching, coding, testing, then writing a blog post to share with the world. Or you can simply send a tweet 🐦

Recently I shared a small piece of code on Twitter and it got lots of love. I don’t think I’ve ever had such engagement. At the moment of this writing 15 retweets 🔃 and 114 likes 💜

It makes no sense 😕

The snippet is not even that interesting, I’m not linking to any blog post, and I spent like 2 minutes to create it. It’s bonkers this got so much traction but other longer and cooler blog posts get nothing.

You would think those who found it interesting might even follow you to get more from you. Well, I think I got 3 followers out of this. I should be grateful.

I guess that’s social media for you 🤷‍♂️
