- Laaas 4y agoMeta isn't just Instagram, and Instagram isn't just suicidal tendencies. You could just as well do the argument with any big company.
- postsantum 4y agoI get depressed readying about mind-blowing tech on HN every day and feeling old and inadequate. YC, what are you doing?
- dx034 4y agoThat's all of social media. I don't like what's happening there but I also don't see how Facebook engineers can change that. Closing Instagram just drives more people to TikTok which is arguably worse.
- dang 4y agoPlease don't post like this to HN. We've had to warn you about this many times before*. The slack here is finite and if you keep it up we're going to have to ban you. I don't want to ban you, so if you'd please fix this, that would be good. I'm not denying at all that the psychological well-being of young people is intertwined with social media and corporate interests in complex ways that deserve critique. But it's not ok to post snarky drive-by attacks on HN. Those are two separate things and it's the commenter's job to distinguish them. * https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33340849 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33340849 (Oct 2022) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30630713 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30630713 (March 2022) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27401192 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27401192 (June 2021) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19534285 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19534285 (March 2019) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17734563 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17734563 (Aug 2018) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16059003 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16059003 (Jan 2018) https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
