Some basic ideas to consider:

There are way too many conflicting and understructured advice that can even be considered "Lindy", on the grounds of intermediary causes and relevance on the iteration-irreversibility continuum (rust-fire continuum for entropy) https://rogersbacon.substack.com/p/eponymous-laws-part-i-laws-of-the?s=r https://rogersbacon.substack.com/p/eponymous-laws-part-1-laws-of-the/comments?s=r

There are also counterfactuals and heresies that should be considered. A major clue is that certain taboo "stereotypes" are consistent, valid, and also useful. https://rogersbacon.substack.com/p/20-modern-heresies https://rogersbacon.substack.com/p/20-modern-heresies/comments https://desystemize.substack.com/p/desystemize-8?s=r

The last one is this: It is possible that influencers (even the justly successful ones) can make random irrelevant pseudo-Lindy advice, and they can make others miserable through forced replication. https://hardfork.substack.com/p/why-most-founders-dont-take-good https://swellandcut.com/2016/07/02/adam-grant-brene-brown-and-the-world-we-live-in-right-now/ https://freddiedeboer.substack.com/p/why-not-take-weightlifting-advice
