Template Gravity

[ SLANG ][ TEMPLATE CULTURE ][ ATTENTION ECONOMY ]

FORCE: Attention EconomyUNIVERSE: Template CultureCLUSTER: Participatory Media

The pull a dominant viral template exerts, drawing in creators who would otherwise be posting something completely different just because the format is inescapable that week.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"I didn't even want to do the caption trend but the template gravity got me anyway."

LORE & ORIGIN

A predictive term describing an already-observed platform effect: once a template hits critical mass, unrelated creators feel pressure to participate or risk being ignored by the algorithm.
