We followed a similar path and my experience was mostly the same. I wanted the fediverse to be a positive social thing in my life, I gave it a few years but in practice it felt sadly similar. Reading Amusing Ourselves to Death over the holiday helped me understand my relationship to infotainment a little better. (And I'm conflicted about this site too honestly...)
- verzeichnis 4y agoThis book should be required reading in school. I read it when I was around 18 and it vaccinated me profoundly for all things entertainment industry, be it video games, TV or social media. I partake, but there always comes a point where I get that Clockwork Orange gag reaction at some point and am driven away. And yes, this site is of quality content, but it is still the same opiate.
