Kind of sad. Teens have a higher rate of suicide because of the evil algorithms of social media and we as a society do basically nothing about it. I’m readings news about it since years and absolutely nothing changes. Why are we not forbiddening it? How much worse can it get??
When 9-11 happened the Fukushima I couldn’t tear myself away from the footage. Ended up being the same in Reddit with live updates, would have been the same with Tiktok I suppose but I never engaged on that.
I moved Youtube back to clients that only gave me who i follow, moved to lemmy/piefed.
I just want enough news to know what’s happening. I don’t need every gory detail or every opinion piece on it.
I even split on bluesky, wasn’t healthy.
Fediverse is just about as healthy as I can find.

Why would we stop it? Despair is great for conditioning the next generation of slaves workers to accept abuse.
