Definition:
Contentification is the process by which art, communication, or expression is reshaped to fit the requirements of platforms, metrics, and monetisation systems.
Usage Context:
Seen when creators alter form, tone, length, or subject matter to satisfy algorithms, trends, or posting schedules.
Critical Note:
Contentification rewards conformity and punishes risk. Over time, it narrows creative possibility while maintaining the illusion of freedom.
