The article discusses a new social media platform Tsu (pronounced Sue), which actually pays users for their posts. Payment is accumulated through an algorithm based upon who you get to join the network, your friends, and the engagement your post creates. Reviews of the platform look at it as beneficial because no other social media sites pay you for your posts. Tsu makes each and every post under your personal ownership. On the flip side, those who are members seem to posting anything and everything, without giving much thought or insight. Along with this, many are on their best behavior, being nice to everyone and becoming friends just to help with their payments.
It seems to me that recently a ton of social media platforms seem to be popping up than ever before. In no time, there will be so many to choose from that no one will become the next big thing. As I have said before, I think it will be hard for any new platform to compete with the ones already out there (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram). These have been around for so long and have so many users that it will take something big to really gain any sort of market share in the social media world. While I am sure that people would love to get paid for their posts, I just don’t think the pay is large enough to bring large numbers of people over. On top of this, it just seems a little fake to me. Of course people are going to post as much as possible to get more money. I wouldn’t want to read stuff that people are posting that is uninteresting just so they can make a few cents.
