Back in the day, introducing video posts destroyed facebook, a friends chatter platform, slowly but surely. Same fate with instagram, a photography/memory platform, getting into reels and videos.
Now if I go to reddit once a month to check in what the vibe is since my “detox” I realized.
Its all designed to drain. Drain your energy, your free thought, your long term happiness. Like not even hyperbolic, this is really scary.

And we all know thanks to the c/reddit community here on lemmy: Its full of this hidden but omniprersent corpo shilling, ads and corpo censoring.
I am confused. Plenty of videos get posted to Lemmy.

I havent seen posts with build-in player feature, like the ones that encourage uncoscious behaviour as in the examples mentioned, does that make sense?
Ahh, I see. Yeah, the web interface doesn’t have that, but many apps for Lemmy do.
I just hope we can shed more light on this, so the community here will always hold onto that paradigm that this format and so the adapted content brings nothing but doom
