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.
Yeah, I’d love to post more but still not working for me. There’s been a few posts since I stopped but not many. Hopefully the dev can get stuff figured out, especially the web version he’s been teasing.
I love how a single person can so easily have such an impact here. m_f, you’re lemmy-famous!
