Well, I am back soon in early April this year because during my dormant time, I was thinking of rebranding and reshape the goal that I made before. Also, since I am leaving X, I feel that I don't think my existence there are made me famous or something. In another side, I am already give Elon Musk an big middle finger which that means I'll quit soon on his Twitter and finally I did it. Even I feel some disconnection at the time, I take the risk rather than my mental gonna be cooked and made me thinking of going to Psychiatric Hospital again.

I was thinking that I am in wrong community, and it's true. I was on wrong community at the time. As people who cannot made people entertain and I am always take anything seriously, I think I need to reshape anything and start again from zero. Also as disabled person, I need to stay away from society that harms me in any way that occurs. Also, using terms like “VTuber” or “VCaster”, it made me being minorities who have different vision. In global terms, “VTuber” are mostly entertain people by their live stream or any on-demand content that they made for entertainment purposes. Meanwhile, since I can't entertain people, I choose different path. Some few virtual content creator has taken different path and their goal seems running perfectly.

The challenge in Social way

Some of them could engage people to follow them are utilizing algorithm by active on centralized social network like Meta's Empire (Facebook, Instagram, etc.), Elon's Kingdom (X/Twitter), Bytedance's Garbage (TikTok), and more. Well, some how I couldn't survive there due to limitation that I am facing it. Also, when I realized that I have ADHD and since in real life also disconnected with current society, I don't know how to grow there and I have no idea.

Since then, I am trying to adapt with fediverse, which is combination of federated social network due to decentralization and another universe, finally I found the right place for myself to grow. Since they don't have an algorithm and any posts could be seen by everyone on fediverse, I am feel lucky that I found the right place. To understand the place that I feel like home, I learn about how ActivityPub protocol works and how difference between centralized and decentralized social network works, both from their infrastructure, ownership of the server, and social side that much different on biggest centralized social network.

I know fediverse currently have a few million active users and nearly 12 to 14 million people registered and a thousand of servers active on the network that no one owned it, but as minorities I feel safe and I could adapt there rather than on centralized social network where their black algorithm made me sick and insane. Got more following rather than followers? Not a problem. I want to build the relationship with people to people, not with masked bot.

How's my rebrand plan going on?

Yeah the older name “Everything with Jim” I decide to be an legal business name and I changed it as “Learn with Jim” where it have same goal as previous, but I decide to serve the content in English and publishing first on fediverse, before I share on YouTube for video content, Spotify and YT Music for Audiocast. I made the priorities where it called “fedi-first” where I publish the content on fediverse via Peertube under MakerTube instances for video and Funkwhale under Funkwhale Italia for audiocast (another name of podcast in audio format). Also, I want to share to anyone about FOSS, GNU/Linux, SysAdmin stuff, and anything that related to my hobbies.

That's it from me for now.
