I hear this repeated a all the time. I can see how this might be the case, but I just don’t get it.
My social media is overwhelmingly positive. I see celebrations, beauty, fun, and love. Social media makes me happy and more connected.
Maybe it’s because I’ve deliberately curated my feeds and follow few people? If I see something I don’t like repeatedly, I unfollow.

I guess I could say my Instagram feed is like what you're saying to some extent - mostly exercise tips, recipes, underwater photography, pics of friends having dinner, etc. But twitter on the other hand was terrible. I quit twitter in May as it was just becoming an outrage factory. Maybe I've been more careful with who I'm following on IG? Maybe IG isn't as amenable to political discussions and thus tends to stay saner? I'm not sure.
- marginalia_nu 4y agoTwitter is fine if you very meticulously curate who you follow and list tweets by chronological order. But yeah, I sometimes accidentally click a trending topic. That makes me a bit sad, mostly because there clearly are a lot of people out there who aren't getting the help they need.
