Silos as dead malls

Decaying Silos as dead malls 2018-01-20 (kevinmarks.com)

Now we want a more organic, handmade web again.

This also made me think about how the silos degrade our view of the web, insisting that we give them custom markup so our posts fit into their rigid worldviews, each one with a photo preview and title, interchangeable, fitting into their product racks.

After years of tuning my posts for Google+, Facebook, Twitter, et al. I’ve chosen to say fuck them. Why am I playing this game?
