Even left-wing creators are becoming disillusioned with Facebook

.@ColleenDoran posted a screenshot from her Facebook page analytics. Every time she includes a link to content outside FB's walled garden, the algorithm hides it from the majority of her fans.

If she posts a photo/artwork and no link, the views are 10-15x greater. pic.twitter.com/tKURq2RGJj
If you post only text or a picture/photo, more people get to see it but you also have minimal ability to move interest anywhere else.

It's the same here and with almost every social media outlet. The internet as siloed slices instead of the holistic whole.
He also posted this on Blue Sky, if it matters. So it turns out even left-wingers, comics creators or otherwise, are finding FB is not going to respect them any more than right-wingers. Well, at least this might have the effect of prompting some to turn back to promoting their work and commentary on blogs, which is far more effective than a social network where typing space is limited to just 200 characters or so. It'll be interesting to see what Zub and others of his ilk plan to do in that sense. Maybe it'll have the effect of convincing them that too many political rants don't pay off if they really want to appeal to a wider audience.That's why so many creators are frustrated and turning back to direct email newsletters or self-hosted blogs.

My site is my name dot com. From there you can sign up for my direct email updates. For better or for worse, that's the most consistent way to find out what I'm doing.
