In my opinion, algorithms and dark patterns in social media need to be destroyed. Any of us who remember early social media will remember it not being anywhere near as bad as the monstrosity it has evolved into today.
Instagram was quite fun when it had a reputation for being a “hipster” platform and before Facebook bought it and absolutely butchered it, for example. Now it’s genuinely horrible.

Fuck man, I’m old enough to remember Facebook was exclusively posts by my friends. Shit has come a long way.
Yup. I’d log in, scroll for maybe 10-15 posts before I saw the first one from yesterday, play some Wild Ones, and that was that.

I think most people agree but when we slip into trashing social media as a concept and lose the nuance I get concerned.
