Twitter and Reddit went so much to shit and lowered the bar so much that Meta actually became almost not bad in my eyes, almost.
I think Meta is doing a decent job with Instagram. I mean except for collecting all possible data and psychological profiling of users to serve them targeted ads, it's a decent enough platform. And the only one still allowing for engagement with your actual friends rather than exclusively professional content creators.
Don't worry that'll change, they haven't owned it for that long yet.
they acquired it in 2012.
...OK, well I guess we wait until the wrong person is in charge of that division. Also I'm old because that feels like yesterday....fuck.
