I'm not sure yet if I totally agree with you or not. But the thought crossed my mind a lot. Like when I see some "shitty" post and how they're getting more audience than my post. Then I realized, "What's a shitty post anyway? What if my post is just shit for others? Am I being such a snob about the things I write when I'm not really that good as well?"
For now, all I know is that great content makes its readers realize stuff. I mean its just one of its many criteria but that's all I got for now. And I say this is great content. 👍
