  • nishio We have received several requests for the content of the talk, which can be read free of charge on the web media “Cybozu style”!

  • Cybozu Style is a free media, but I thought the reason why it is sustainable is because the software is profitable.

The feelings that came to mind after Mr. Anno’s election campaign and the subsequent Funding the Commons Tokyo.

Very good content was created with Mr. Anno’s involvement. Part of this was paid content.

  • I don’t mean to imply that that in and of itself is a bad thing.
  • X/Twitter and other social networking sites maintained by advertising have an incentive to make people emotional and spend time with the goal of increasing engagement
  • Media maintained through paid membership contracts from customers
    • Web media needs the perks of paid subscription to sustain itself.
  • It’s hard to spread the word even if you think, “I found some good information, I want a lot of people to see this.
    • This is a gated community.
      • And that’s not a bad thing.
      • By creating a community where only those with money can participate, the comments are of higher quality than those in the Yahoo News comment section.
        • I don’t think “high quality” is appropriate, it’s just that it’s so in some communities’ values.
    • Even some subscribers are financially resistant to multiple subscriptions
      • Nothing to do with web media, people have always said “take several newspapers and compare them”.
        • Was he a politician or a president?
      • Ideally, you should also subscribe to several paid news media companies and compare them.
  • Radical Change “Elon Musk Dictatorship” is turning X into chaos []
    • The title is too incendiary.
    • As far as free reading goes, it’s not the speaker’s argument, it’s the reporter’s argument and the speaker’s introduction, and that’s it.
    • I think it’s a terrible use of the word, even though the speaker doesn’t agree with the reporter’s assertion.
  • It’s not enough to get excited within the gated community in propagating the idea of smoothing the boundaries of society called Plurality.

PIVOT], which I learned about during Mr. Anno’s campaign, announced this past July that all videos would be free of charge.
