Sort of, but I’m mostly joking. The reality is that good content is always important, and it’s a given, but “just posting good content” is not a way to be successful at the levels we all want. Hence automation being a thing.
Anyhow there are obviously variables that change things, and people who are successful by just posting good content, and hell there are plenty who post absolute garbage and do well because they automate and game the systems like crazy. Or just have popular friends constantly shouting them out until they grow without effort.
