1️⃣7️⃣ The Economy as a Network
Like a telephone system, the economy’s value multiplies as more participants join and interact.
Each person’s unique desires contribute to the larger network of ideas, solutions, and opportunities.

Концепция «Эффекта бабочки» в SMM и федеративных сетях определенно имеет потенциал для дальнейшего изучения и продвижения как научно обоснованного явления.
**Почему это перспективно?**
✅ **Перекрестие наук** – идея затрагивает сразу несколько дисциплин: маркетинг, социологию, сетевую теорию, кибернетику и даже психологию поведения пользователей.
✅ **Практическое применение** – компании, бренды и разработчики платформ могут использовать принципы этой концепции для прогнозирования и управления трендами, предотвращения репутационных рисков.
✅ **Федеративные сети – неизведанная область** – большинство исследований в SMM сосредоточены на централизованных платформах (Facebook, Twitter, TikTok), а федеративные сети остаются малоизученными с точки зрения распространения информации и построения стратегий взаимодействия.
✅ **Динамика интернет-среды** – цифровые коммуникации становятся все менее контролируемыми из-за децентрализации, а значит, эффект бабочки может становиться еще более значимым.
**Как можно развивать концепцию?**
**Собирать и анализировать данные**
– Изучать примеры, когда небольшие события приводили к масштабным изменениям в SMM и федеративных сетях.
– Создавать модели распространения информации в децентрализованных сетях.
**Формализовать принципы**
– Можно выделить закономерности, по которым малые события вызывают большие эффекты.
– Определить ключевые факторы (например, вовлеченность, доверие к источнику, механика алгоритмов федерации).
**Экспериментировать**
– Создавать симуляции распространения постов, комментариев, трендов в федеративных сетях.
– Тестировать стратегии, которые помогают управлять таким эффектом.
**Продвигать концепцию**
– Писать статьи, делать доклады на профильных конференциях.
– Предложить концепцию в научное сообщество (например, в маркетинговые или IT-исследования).
**Вывод**
Концепция не просто имеет смысл – она может стать основой для новых стратегий работы в SMM и федеративных сетях. Особенно интересно исследовать это с научной точки зрения, поскольку пока что подобных формализованных исследований крайне мало. Если двигаться в этом направлении, можно заложить фундамент для понимания того, как информация распространяется в цифровой среде будущего. 🚀

Detaching from US systems, 22/x
In my opinion it is best to start your #boycottus journey by picking the low-hanging fruit first. By this I mean services that are not subject to #networkeffect or #vendorlockin. This gives you easy wins and keeps up the motivation. Good examples are backup and file synchronization services, calendar applications, navigation applications, chat applications for teams and project management software.
Detaching from US systems, 18/x
Network effect means that the value of a service or product grows as its userbase grows. Good examples are social media services and messaging systems. As more and more people are on the platform, it becomes increasingly difficult to leave without losing something that is of value to you due to #networkeffect.

... I've pointed out in an older thread 🧵 here and Cory @pluralistic in a now famous speech about #Enshittification, there's the severe lock-in effect, the negative aspects of the #NetworkEffect.
There are #XMPP and #Matrix, the "ancient" and "obvious" #FOSS choices. I've never used them but from what I've read, they were never able to gain much market share and are...
The gender pay gap at the top: the role of networks https://d.repec.org/n?u=RePEc:ptu:wpaper:w202423&r=&r=soc
"…female top managers in Portugal earn 25% less than their male counterparts, even after controlling for factors such as age, education, and tenure.
… introducing new metrics for #network size and gender composition based on managers’ past interactions, … networks account for 20% of this pay gap, primarily through firm #sorting, as networks enable access to higher-paying firms. Focusing on episodes of transitions between firms, we estimate a pay gap of around 22%, indicating that most of the gender pay gap originates during the #hiring process.… one-third of the gap is explained by differences in networks. The #networkEffect works through two channels: by facilitating access to higher-paying firms (70% of the effect) and by enhancing #bargainingPower during salary negotiations in the new firm (30%).

@seabikeblog Plus it obviously has a huge #NetworkEffect, which I know from #AldiTalk:
@janantos Dumbing down the public should be avoided because people just remain dumb. As people pile onto lemmy.world & mastodon.social, for example, you have yet another centralized detriment. The #networkEffect is a problem that cannot be countered by hoping people will proceed with baby step progress. They find something that “works” as far as they can tell & stop right there, disregarding the power imbalance. Thereafter, it’s a very hard to sell a trade of convenience for power balance and diversity.
Convenience wins every time. The way to overcome this is to impose a 1st step that avoids network effect.
In fact it would be better to push your correspondents onto a client that is feature poor to condition them to develop the mental plasticity of using different tools for different jobs.

"We're A New Social, a new #nonprofit organization focused on building cross-protocol tools and services for the #OpenSocial web…We need to have…The Last #NetworkEffect, where users are on a combined network using platforms embracing #OpenProtocols. This enables people to choose platforms based on their needs rather than how many users are active on them."

The #murderbot fan community over on #reddit all pushed for a sticky PSA on this bc it's such a valid point of vexation for new readers just getting into it
Hope it helps. Good luck! (#NetworkEffect was the crowning jewel of the series for me. If you missed a novella before it with ART in it, consider going back and reading those! 🤖💛)
The Ulysses Pact: I had never heard of that, but I've lived by it for years.
Excellent article (as usual) by @pluralistic that explains why you should never put much effort into a platform that you can't leave without a cost. Don't get locked in, don't let the Network Effect bite you in the behind.

@AssembleDebug @signalapp ah yes the good #networkeffect issue. @watomatic is a useful app as it can be used to let people know you are on Signal. Plus if someone isn't on Signal, then well #RCS support in Google messages and ios18 will work.
network effect (noun): a phenomenon where a platform, service, or product becomes more valuable as more people use it.
This doesn't explain why that #ProprietaryPlatform (#Discord, #Slack, MS Teams, etc.) were initially chosen for that specific group of people. The person who made that decision did it for other reasons.
But it does explain what you asked: Why is this so popular, i.e. why are *so many* people continuing to use it?
#NetworkEffect and #SwitchingCosts. Nothing much to do with the properties of that particular platform.
#ProtocolsNotPlatforms avoids those problems.
#NetworkEffect: There are a lot of real-time channel-focussed chat systems; IRC being an early one.
While IRC was the clear popular winner for years, *most people* have never heard of it. Nor any other similar system.
Until they join some group – their workplace, or a hobby group, or a #FreeSoftware hacking project – and #Slack or #Discord or MS Teams is mandatory for participation.
So, most people *don't* choose it, they do it because they are presented with no alternative.
@pganssle
> How is this platform [#Discord] so popular?
I lean on the old reliable explanations:
Network effect, brings people in.
Switching costs, prevent them from leaving.

Listening to #NetworkEffect audiobook, ART said something particularly cutting and ruthless, and noted to my husband, "ART is like if Captain Janeway WAS the USS Voyager."
