      Earlier in the cycle of Web 2.0, circa ~2010, companies would employ a single Community Manager whose job it was to maintain situational awareness of the platform. A lot has changed since then. https://twitter.com/CaseyNewton/status/1138214573389934592 …

      This answer to the Quora question “What is a Community Manager?” from Christina Caciopo, formerly of USV, was widely regarded as the best explanation of the job at the time. This describes a world and a set of principles which feel very distant.https://www.quora.com/What-is-a-community-manager …

      At the time this was posted, I was working at a @usv company. Their investment thesis back then was: "Large networks of engaged users, differentiated through user experience, and defensible through network effects."https://www.usv.com/blog/investment-thesis-usv …

      So my friends and peers were the people launching and managing a whole array of new, experimental social software. Today, most of those platforms are gone.

      The ones that aren't are the ones you hear about in the news. They're the handful of giants dominating our centralized experience of the web in 2019. (Including this one.)

      Having worked on platforms of varying sizes, I know the point Wojcicki is speaking from. There's a threshold past which cohesive situational awareness becomes impossible.

      On a site like YouTube, there are many simultaneous realities, they're competing. No single framework or mental model is going to account for all the edge cases in the mix.

      Parent companies, grappling with the vertigo of it all, often begin considering throwing robots at the problem. This often means taking a system you already don't understand and doing more stuff to it, ensuring you understand its outputs even less. Now you have two problems.

      I look back at the social media companies circa 2010 who have fallen, and the unique problems facing the titans who've survived. The fallen soldiers weren't terribly valuable for their investors, but they're also not causing externalities like this: http://enemygatedown.com/2019/03/01/facebook-moderation-and-the-unforeseen-consequences-of-scale/ …

      All this is to say, what if there's no such thing as scale without downside?

          I’m sympathetic to this argument, but this was also a question we asked if nuclear reactors (c.f. Perrow’s NORMAL ACCIDENTS) and I believe the answer came back that in fact we COULD build safe systems at scale, if we understood them as SYSTEMS and not collections of components

          idk. Not sure about "ethnographies" per se. The archivist @tjowens wrote a diss on online communities. He might know. Going back further into time, the historian @desconcentrado has studied the online communities of BBSs.
