Posting on instagram stories ruined my career

Just joking but serious wtf

I spent 10 years+ posting on social media just to have my content hidden in story archives, an easy fix would be for instagram to add a button for past stories to turn into reels but noo because instagram doesn't really want you to be visible.

So i built the culo village to transfer my data over to a site that can be cited by ai, found by founders and position myself and anyone else in the village as an expertise.

if you want your body of work to be celebrated and live on forever, be in the village xo
