Small content creators are always going to experience randomness and chaos 'in the current system', cause the Amount of Content far exceeds the amount of Attention available.
If the platforms were honest they would signal to everyone how large that gap is. And people would make a more informed call about whether to get into content creation.
Instead of doing that the platforms just puts the whole onus on content creator "quality" - hey man if you aren't up in the ranking its your fault, maybe you are a looser, go do something more outrageous, scream a little louder, repeat yourself 24x7, spam everyone. Or buy our ads. Its a nice scam cause you get even large corps and presidents shelling out billions on ads.
