> the content has become horrendous Do you attribute this to bots? I agree that content has gone down hill quite a bit. Though personally I don't think it has anything to do with bots. People I used to follow and respect have devolved into posting memes and engagement bait. When there is discussion it usually ends up as 2 sides taking past eachother. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with social media feeds in general, information overload, and providing means of fast gratification. It really does feel like social media is making people stupider, myself included. At the same time it's also providing me some sense of interest aligned community aligned that I can't really get elsewhere. I'm sure others feel the same. It's possible that I'm wrong about social media making us stupid, and very possible that it's just illuminating the stupidity that was always there. Either way I wish it were reversed and trending towards increase in highlighting smart discussion. (Side note, I've also tried Mastodon and found that there was equal or greater stupidity in the communities there)
