That's because the only thing American society are the treats. We don't have healthcare, we don't have a third space ( a place besides home and work where we can just enjoy life without spending money), we don't have a house we could ever afford, but damnit, we can buy $5 jalapeño poppers at Chili's and buy streaming services! American society has placed importance around net worth and what material things you have.

Prices will never ever go down because it's honestly the only thing we have.

I'm excited. I'm one of those users, but I haven't used it much because I can't find followers. To be fair, I never used Instagram. I like the fediverse, I usually see the same articles get sent through other centralized communities other than reddit (tildes, hacker news, etc), but I enjoy the community discussion the best around here.

Strange, I don't get anything risque, just tech videos and some improv comedy. I still don't like shorts though. I'm highly tempted to use revanced to take out the shorts section.

I'd like to know as well. I'd love to join a good community or older techies.
