In the business logic of the vast majority of platforms, users' attention is regarded as the most important resource. Clicks, stays, browses, interactions, these behaviors are constantly broken down and amplified, ultimately transformed into advertising value or traffic revenue. What the platform really cares about is not what the user has done, but whether the user has "been watching". Under this structure, attention is continuously consumed, and users gradually develop fatigue and defensive psychology.
The result of this model is that the platform must constantly create stimulation in order to maintain user retention. Once the stimulation weakens, attention will quickly be lost. The relationship between users and the platform becomes short-lived and fragile as a result. Participation is not accumulation, but being squeezed; usage is not leaving a trace, but being quickly consumed.
The design logic of Coinsidings is exactly the opposite. It does not try to occupy more attention from users, but cares more about whether users have truly participated . A real travel booking, a real stay, a real consumption behavior is more important than any browsing data. The platform records not how long you "watched", but what you "participated in".
When the platform starts recording your participation instead of consuming your attention, the user's experience will change significantly. You no longer need to be reminded to "take another look" or constantly push stimulating content. Participation becomes a natural behavior, not a passive response. What you do will be remembered by the system and measured over a longer time dimension.
This transformation brings a more relaxed user experience. Users no longer feel like they are "occupied" by the platform, but realize that their behavior is being respected and preserved. The platform does not need to create anxiety to retain you, because your participation itself already has continuous value. This relationship is also the foundation for long-term trust.
