It really doesn't need to be this way.
At any time, we can decide to open our own blog for $9 a year. At any time we can choose to ditch algorithmic socials.
If we don't like them, we don't need to use them, and just switch off.
you can publish independently, but it's hard to get found. Search engines are cluttered with nonsensical link farms these days :-(
It wasn’t easy getting found in the 2000s as well
I miss stumbleupon. Was a great way to find random niche stuff like that back in the day.
It isn't the same but https://kagi.com/smallweb is kinda in the spirit of it.
