I realise how good I did myself by abandoning most social media a decade back. I just do not feel a median brain can handle so much information, be expected to have informed takes on every topic under the Sun etc.
Ultimately the arbiters of legal/illegal and good/bad will change and continue to evolve with time but worrying about every instance or post beyond my control will not help me in any way nor the cause under concern.
- fullshark 2y agoThis website is arguably social media. I think the lesson the last decade taught me is social media where you have a profile (attached to your real name or not) where you get to talk to the entire planet or everyone you've ever met in your life is something I have no interest in. That wouldn't be true if I had a public image to maintain, or a business to run, but if that's the case it's purely a PR play (aka brand advertising and largely insincere). The experiment where you get to be yourself online for everyone in the world to enjoy is a failure to all except the hustlers and bullshitters looking for attention, and extremely naive.
