About this episode

A discussion on creator ownership, social media algorithms, and building authentic online communities.

I joined VetTV with Joker, Damon and WhiteTigerSavage for a wide-ranging conversation about Pickax, creator ownership and the future of social media, and it turned into exactly the kind of honest discussion this industry needs more often. We explored algorithms, shadow banning, monetization, Rumble integration, anonymous accounts, artificial intelligence, free speech and the challenge of building authentic online communities without losing the human beings inside them. The panel brought thoughtful questions, strong perspectives and plenty of personality, which made for a genuinely engaging conversation about where creators are headed and what it will take to build platforms that actually serve them.
