I don’t post every day. I don’t follow trends. And I definitely don’t wake up thinking, “What should I make today that gets the most likes?” That’s not why I create.
Creating should give you energy. But the moment you start chasing metrics—likes, reach, save rates—you stop creating from your curiosity and start producing on demand like a machine. That’s when creativity becomes content. And you become a servant to the algorithm.
Yeah, I know social media helps people grow businesses, build an audience, and get visibility. Good for them. I’m not against it. But just because something works for others doesn’t mean I have to plug myself into the same machine.
People ask, “Why don’t you post more often? Why not share tips daily? Top 10 plugins? Icon libraries?” Because if you Google it—you’ll find it anyway. I’m not here to repackage the internet for clicks. I’m not here to be another thumbnail shouting “You MUST try this......”
I share what I actually care about—my experiments, my art, my code, my learning in real-time. Not what’s trending. Not what’s optimized for clicks. I like having the freedom to explore different mediums without being typecast into a single identity. I'm not here to be “the design guy” or “the code guy” or “the color theory guy.” I’m all of it. And sometimes none of it.
You can chase trends if you want. You can copy what’s going viral. It might even work. But don’t confuse performance with authenticity. True creative freedom starts when you no longer need approval to validate what you make.
So if someone asks, Why don’t you post more often? The answer is simple:
I post when I have something real to share, not when the algorithm expects me to.
