Greetings, Producer!

đź’€Doom Scrolling is the Death of Joy

I was sitting on the couch over the holiday weekend scrolling through my social media feed when it occurred to me... I was scrolling for over 20 minutes and had yet to see a post from anyone I followed!

It was all politics or car chases or AI generate videos or 'what do you notice' posts. Posts that try to induce an emotional response of anger, hate and vitriol. Not what I'm looking for on social media, or in life.

đźš« My Gripe With Social Media (And Why I'm Starting a Private Community)

Once upon a time, Social Media was great. Was.

Gone are the days of logging into social media and enjoying a post from a friend or an uplifting video. Even posts you would disagree with led to a healthy debate. Now it's all hate-mongering, troll-baiting nonsense.

I’m not abandoning social media completely but let’s be honest: it’s no longer the place where real conversations and real communities thrive.

That’s why I’m starting up a NEW dedicated community at MedievalArchives.com/Discord our own community where your stories don’t get buried, throttled, or ignored.

Don’t worry: I’ll still post on social media. But the real community, the real engagement will be on Discord.

🔥 Why the Change?

Because Social Media simply doesn’t work anymore:

  • Out of 60,000+ members, a post reaches less than 3% of the members

  • Anything with a link? Instantly de-prioritized and buried.

  • Ads and “AI slop” get pushed harder than posts you actually care about.

  • Bots outnumber real humans.

  • Replies and likes vanish instead of sparking conversation.

Even the most dedicated Social Media fans admit the same thing: the feeds are clogged with spam, ads, junk posts and less of the stuff you actually want.

We deserve better.

🔥 Why Our Community on Discord?

Because your voice should actually be heard.

  • No algorithm.

  • No AI Bots

  • No de-prioritized posts or shadow-banning

  • No distractions drowning out conversations.

Just a real community, real discussions, real people.

I know, another service to join. But Discord is free to join and it's worth it to have meaningful, respectful conversations without the distractions on social media.

The show is stronger with your support and sustaining donations.

The favorite is the $10.66 Norman Invasion donation.

There’s also the $14.85 Battle of Bosworth donation.

And there’s always the do-it-yourself open donation.

🌟 The Difference between a Private Community and Social Media

Social Media = Following…

Medieval Archives Community = Belonging

If you want to keep up with my episodes and posts, they'll still be posted on Social Media.

If you want to actually be part of the community, join us at the Medieval Archives Discord Server.

The door is wide open. Your seat in the Archives is waiting. I’m excite to see what we can build together.
