Without a doubt, 100% factually true. Glad to see people speak outwardly about this. Especially on a platform that ALLOWS us to connect and share like we used to. +1 "bUt CaPiTaLiSm BrEeDs InNoVaTiOn" 🤡 |

It stopped being a means of connecting people and became engineered to squeeze as much engagement out of users as possible. The algorithm wants you to keep scrolling, watch this ad, buy this product, scroll some more. |

Exactly, right. Not to mention, modern social media is a form of controlling media. Its sad to see that actual web traffic is also down because the biggest search engines now have the ability to summarize everything. I couldn't agree more. It removes the need to actually engage with what you are searching for and get a deep understanding of what it is. Not to mention as well the rabbit holes you'd be lead down just looking through random sites by Penderghast; ; Report |

100 percent on the doomscrolling part. I should have mentioned that too. It's quite sad too. It doesn't even want you to engage with the video's anymore either. They want you to stop for a couple seconds to generate the ad revenue and then have to scroll again. Lots of click bait as well. Though that's always existed in some form, it's just gotten worse as time goes on. Most video sharing sites have this issue now
