Occasionally I go back to FB to see if any friends and family have posted and like 90% of the feed is "recommended for you" shovelfulls of garbage for infinite scrolling. Worst off, there's a kind of anxiety about even pausing to look at anything on there out of fear that FB will decide I like that particular kind of garbage and show me more of it. Most of the garbage I get is innocuous - silly comics, AI generated movie posters of like "what if Wes Anderson made the Marvel movies" that I tend to block. Occasionally it's aggressive right-wing memes (and it's never "personal responsibility" or "low taxes" stuff, always "this is the group we hate today and how stupid and annoying they are"). Still, I occasionally find myself absentmindedly infinite-scrolling, just because I started there looking for news from old friends.
