Talking to friends is great and it’s normal for the medium we use to do that to evolve. Talking to strangers and to brands is pure poison. It’s the common thread between all of the problems on all of these platforms.

The feed would be a purely chronological list of their updates, no algorithm. Then it’s closer to a digital version of real life. Not an endless stream of ads and arguments.
