Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

That's not lemmy, that's all social media (albite divisive topics are a bit different among different communities).

This is a hot take, but I think humanity is slowly turning it's back on social media because of it's toxic nature. You can only open a browser and get your nuts kicked so many times before you finally decide you don't like getting your nuts kicked.

Are you living in a parallel universe or something? Are we talking for the same humanity that is 24/7 on Instagram and on tiktok?

I really wish you're right but I'm afraid that the minorities you may know who just abandoned Facebook are not representing humanity

Hmm, yeah I definitely see how I am biased there. I've been on social media since its inception, so my opinion is likely influenced mostly by people who have experienced social media for ~2 decades and are sick of it now.

Would be nice if that's the direction being taken.
