I don't see how you're disagreeing, you seem to acknowledge that it is a waste of time. And I don't see how any one of these is more pernicious than another, there can be bad actors, cyberstalkers, scammers, criminals everywhere on the net including on gemini. Edit: A point I'd like to make here is that Gemini is not an alternative web and never will be, according to the designer's own statements. I share your frustration with some of the modern aspects of the web but the web also does a lot of things right that we may take for granted, let's not be so cynical as to forget that. I'm guilty of it myself in the past but no longer, and part of it was because people misled me.
