I have a good experience with Facebook because I've curated carefully. I hide or block stuff I don't like. I try to help the FB AI. I'm very happy with it. For example, my feed right now is (pages and groups latest to first):

- viccis 3y agoI try to do this on both Twitter and Facebook. It can be very difficult because even something like lingering too long looking at an image (or just stepping away from your computer while some AI crap is in view) can warp your algorithm immediately. Twitter is even worse, but at least it disincentivizes arguing, as engaging at all with people, including disagreement, will massively boost their content on your feed. I liked Dune Part 2, but reply tweeting about it once or twice shouldn't mean that 95% of my posts are (most engagement farming) Dune hot takes. At least Youtube is fairly straightforward, you just groom your view history and you're good to go.
- labrador 3y agoBesides hiding and blocking, liking posts/comments plus making comments helps a lot to train the FB algorithm I find. But the scourge of FB is the "suggested posts" because anyone can pay for those and then broadcast them. It seems some don't know how to target their paid posts.
