    It’s the big tech social media disease.

    Everyone, frigging everyone who steps away from fb/insta/twittler/yt/tiktok/… says the same “holy shit my mind is so peaceful all of a sudden.” And somehow it’s not substantially part of the daily discourse. Somehow between that and EVERYTHING else these mfrs are responsible for (protecting pedos, encouraging insurrections, …) just flies.

    It’s a disease, an addiction, a plague and we gotta start naming it as such. Talk to your loved ones and carefully try to get them off that shit.

        You tell me:

        -are you getting adds/shorts/brainrot shoved in face every single second?

        -is the public on lemmy tolerant of sexoffenders? Nazis?

        -adds?

        -do you have superfluous bs following you around?

        I think not.

          You forgot:

          • Is an algorithm shoving political divisive rage bait down your throat?

          Regarding adds: I guess if you fight one lemmy user, others will spawn and come to help. So I would say yes, there are adds
