Yeah fair points. I will say this implosion of the social media I used to use has pushed me towards doing other things than scrolling on my phone lol, and that is a positive thing.

That's fair I suppose.
I disagree, I just think some kind of engagement algorithm would be better. I haven't used bluesky or threads so I can't speak to them. I'm just saying that back in the day on twitter, I had no problem finding a bunch of very funny and clever posts, and posts were catered to me well. Through both me following people and I assume through the engagement algorithm. I've tried adding a bunch of hashtags, but I'm not finding a bunch of hilarious stuff to send to my friends like I did back then on twitter.
Bunch of spam too, because bots use the hashtags, so I'm often scrolling through a bunch of auto-posted stuff. Idk. Maybe I'm using it wrong. I just feel like your average person isn't going to go through all that crap so they'll cling to twitter until it dies.
And I've tried switching instances around, which is just confusing honestly, and didn't really help with finding lots of content that I want to see. I used mastodon more when I was able to mirror people I know are funny on twitter to my mastodon feed lol. I want to like it, I just find I'm never tempted to go on it. Can't figure it out.
Or just use neither, like I've ended up doing.
I've stopped recommending it. The discovery and trending post mechanisms are either garbage or non-existent, and it's really hard to get a feed that's remotely entertaining. Devs also seem ideologically opposed to adding any features like that. It'll just give normal people who aren't willing to deal with all this crap a bad taste in their mouth when it comes to the fediverse. I do recommend lemmy to people tho.
I understand just fine, thank you. You're reading a religious connotation where there is none, and you can't seem to let that go. You're hung up on the etymology of the word lmfao.
Lmfao all these edits instead of responding directly. Cope harder, dude.
Laughable that you'd call everyone confidently ignorant while you get downvoted into oblivion. Try some humility. Maybe this rant was misplaced, and you're wrong for going off with it. There was no religious connotation implied with the original post. You misread. Get over it.
Well if you like unhinged assholes who argue about nothing and everything regardless of context, lemmy seems to be the place for you
It just means a person who is born with more innate talent than the average. Which some people are. Your rant indeed goes off the rails. It ain't that deep chief.
I'd love that, Tesla is a fucking joke of a company
I'm always on All, I just block communities that I don't like. Since the site is small, I get more content this way.
