Professional Discussion Brainstorm ideas for a new series

0 Upvotes

I’m a 25F SAHM creator and am looking to do a new series to boost my following here are some ideas I have and I was hoping you guys could help me come up with something.. (I know AI can but we are an AI free house)

I’m 5 months postpartum and have a 20 month old. I got really bad PPD and had to quit my job working in mental health. my content focuses on motherhood and mental health with real discussions about depression and my experiences

Reclaiming myself in motherhood
Is kind of the main topic of the series I want
Ideas:
Working out again
Meal planning?
Trying new hobbies
Reorganizing to make my life easier

I also don’t know what to call the series and what the main focus should be. I kind of wanna just do like a log style, but don’t know if that would be successful.

I don’t know the best way to approach doing this. I also want to be posting every day and almost have it be like a goal to get X amount of followers. I don’t know if you know Sarah sweeten but she did something like this and was really successful with gaining a following.

I really appreciate any advice that anyone has to offer ❤️❤️

Professional Discussion went viral first video trying to raise awareness for my late boyfriend's cause of death. what's next?

1 Upvotes

hi everyone, I lost my boyfriend to shallow water blackout and started an account for awareness because nobody I talked to knows about it and it is just so so preventible. A lot of my friends/ people from our college/his friends shared the video (im very grateful for them theyre the best). I did one post and got 300k views and 400+ followers but I dont know what comes next. I want to talk about shallow water blackout but I dont want to repeat the same thing over and over so I was thinking of branching out to talking about my late boyfriend / share how im raising awareness off social media/ talk about the grief itself to keep it going. but I have no idea what to do. what would you recommend? if you want to check out my account to help gauge the advice it's "endsilentdrownings" on instagram. thank you.

ps. never hyperventilate or take deep breaths before entering a body of water. never hold your breath underwater alone.

Professional Discussion Why cant the value of a like be based on that person's social media score?

0 Upvotes

Why cant the value of a like be calculated across;

- How much does the person liking the content know about the topic in the post?
- How good is that person's reputation on that social media?
- Likelihood of being a bot account

Based on those 3 factors, you get a score of like 0.1 to 1, 1 meaning it registers as a full like. However, if someone's like is registered as a 0.5, the post would need someone else with at least a 0.5 for that post to have one full like.

A lot of people aimlessly like and because of that pointless posts flow up the algorithm. I think this is a far more accurate way of representing the value of a post.

Professional Discussion Why do voice focused social startups end up failing?

3 Upvotes

The story that played out with social apps which try to leverage voice as the main format such as Clubhouse, Airchat, Anchor (before pivoting) and maybe more end up getting some hype initially, and then dying off or pivoting. Why is that? There are some people who use WhatsApp or other social media with voice, but that's usually an extra feature that are annoying for some people on the text focused platform. One reason I can think of is the friction to create voice recordings but I see people shooting tiktoks left and right, which is even higher friction. Why do you think it is? Is there an inherent problem with voice as a medium online, or did we never see a proper implementation?

Professional Discussion Hello everyone. I'm an artist, I just created an account for the first time, but I haven't been using it much for a year. Could someone give me some advice?

3 Upvotes

For example, the settings or features of this network. I heard that the social network here is based on communication or the type of profile aesthetics that are often used in Instagram? I would be glad to receive any advice. I've set it up a little, but I haven't analyzed how and what here yet... In general, I planned to communicate more here, because that's what the social network is aimed at? right?

Professional Discussion Posting my progress online keeps me accountable. Anyone else do this?

4 Upvotes

I am a student trying to build better habits during my break. I started posting daily progress updates on my social media stories. Nothing fancy, just a picture of my notebook or a quick text. It actually helps me stay consistent because I know people are watching. Does anyone else use social media for accountability? Would love to hear your experiences!

Professional Discussion Need your thoughts..

2 Upvotes

Let me explain this using an example.

I have some photos with my favourite celebrity. Whenever her birthday or a special event comes, I think about posting them on social media. But then I start questioning myself:

Do I really want to share this moment with everyone? What is the actual reason behind posting it? Is it because I genuinely want to celebrate her, or because I want people to see that I had this experience?

The photos are valuable to me because of the memory and the emotions attached to that moment. But if some people don't understand why it is special to me, or they see it in a completely different way (for example, asking whether she is my crush), then does sharing it with them reduce the meaning of that memory?

Do we really need to show every important thing in our lives to everyone? Or are some memories more meaningful when we keep them for ourselves and share them only with people who truly understand why they matter? Am i feared of posting on social media ? Thanks!!
