Is it you or is it the system?
Given "me" and "the system" are arguably nothing more than mental constructs, it seems "it is" whatever gives mere mental constructs more value than they're arguably worth.
How about not making it an either/or to begin with?

Fundamentalists unix! I mean unite! :-)
At the same time I want to free myself from the rules of success on the Internet. Now I plan to improve what I once published, ignore any stupidity about titles or SEO. Above all, don't add more 💩️ to the world. It's time to create things that make me happy when creating them; or grow, or dream, or feel, or think, or at least try. Everything is already lost, let's break the rules.
Like there's no tomorrow, baby! :-)
(Which is admittedly easier for me to say than many others in these parts, because biologically speaking there practically is no tomorrow for this already somewhat smoldering flesh heap....)
Varieties of thoughts swirling with respect to this thread:
It's beginning to look a lot like BBS->Antenna-mas
I discovered I have "id3v2" in my environment, so I started playing with honing metadata of an mp3 of a song of mine in the direction of containing proper attribution and licensing lingo/acronyms.
But that all came to a screeching halt realizing I'm not ready to share "real name" in a space where I've several times run amok of others to the point of their Getting Publicly Really Upset. Times seem such that it's probably best not to increase the chances of being found should a screw come loose in a reader's/listener's mind.
And what a shame, as I think people might really enjoy the song I had in mind, and probably a few others. But for all I know the song I had in mind violates the morality of the modernly self-righteous, so that what should be joy in sharing will become disdain, lectures, pleas to block/shun/boycott, blah blah.
That said, I think the better route will be to put the mp3 somewhere I can point select others to.
