Do you feel similarly about spam filters?
I don’t think everyone needs the full spectrum of opinions being played at them 24/7, sometimes it’s nice just to use a platform like Twitter to converse with friends.
- mellosouls 5y agoThat sounds very much like an echo chamber, you know.
- tuckerman 5y agoIf someone wants to use Twitter to have purely technical/academic related discussions but gets attacked periodically by a few people strangely fascinated by the British royal family, I don’t think they need to justify wanting a little respite. Does that make it an echo chamber? Maybe depending on someone’s definition it does, but then I would argue an echo chamber isn’t always bad and can sometimes be good.
