If you’re not bleeding from the eyes while chasing algorithms and dopamine hits, are you even creating? According to one brave digital monk on Medium, the path to creative salvation isn’t more tools, more reach, or more inspiration. Nope—it’s just fewer apps. Specifically, two. Only two. All others must burn in the fire of distraction.
🚨 Welcome to the Church of Digital Minimalism—Now Delete TikTok, You Sinner
Apparently, becoming a “real” creator in 2025 is not about what you make—it’s about what you delete. In a world where your grandmother is live-streaming her lasagna, the enlightened few must choose their platforms with the precision of a Navy SEAL on a tightrope.
The Medium author, draped in the humble robes of a productivity guru, calls upon us to DELETE all but two social media platforms. Why? Because the 36 tabs open in your life are preventing your inner genius from tweeting that one perfect thought about AI and the fall of civilization.
You must become a monk of content. Pick your holy sites. Will it be YouTube and Twitter? LinkedIn and Instagram? Pinterest and… wait, is Pinterest still a thing? Choose wisely. For once your digital ark is loaded with just two platforms, the content flood will come—and only the chosen will ride it to virality.
It’s not about connecting with your audience. It’s not about creating work that matters. It’s about shrinking your online life to such monastic proportions that your brain has no choice but to produce something. Anything. A newsletter, a reel, a desperate cry for help embedded in a meme.
Forget balance. Forget joy. This is about focus. About cutting off the arms and legs of your digital life so your content soul can finally crawl to greatness. Who needs Reddit when you’ve got TikTok and trauma? Who needs Threads when you’ve got Medium and mild burnout?
And let’s be real: if your creative genius can’t survive without dopamine hits from six platforms at once, maybe your art wasn’t built to last. According to this logic, Hemingway would’ve been way more prolific if he’d just deactivated his Facebook.
