Stop calling people "content creators" (rubenerd.com)
3 points by mikece 7 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment



as there are countless pieces of content about how to become a profitable content creator, this seems a bit silly.

it should be safe to assume that people want to be called content creators. or at least think they do.

how often are people called content creators that don’t want to be called that? was any consideration given to why that phrase might be used?

it is far more gentle than “sell-out.” in a sense. in another, selling out suggests accomplishing something first, and then turning it to profit. whereas content creation skips a step.
