yeah, that's how I feel about Facebook. I get that I have a better experience on FB than most, because I don't keep anyone on my feed that posts shit that's super toxic or super against-anything-I-stand-for (any really conservative relatives I have don't bother with social media or they were already on my shit list for something else and never were my FB friend) but I have extreme social anxiety. I can find out things I need to know from there without having to ask people, my contributions to it (my photography and the discussions I lead) make people happy, and I would never have known about the show that reconnected me with the person who saved my life without it (I mean, I am sure I would have found out it existed but not that he was in it because he went by a different name when we were younger).

I hope the 3 execs that he fired will start a new social media company.

Twitter is so toxic, but I can't quit it.

I know when I don't go on it my mental health improves, but I always end up back there.

I don't think any of the ones threatening it will actually quit. A lot of celebs complain about how terrible instagram is and they're all still there despite it continually getting worse.

i know i could google but, what exactly is wrong with Instagram? i literally only go on it to post my work, other than that, if i get bored i'll post a pic on my personal account. i know ads like crazy now, but did i miss something?

Basically the algorithm is messed up and shows you days old posts and prioritises reels and pushes shopping and things. It's so messed up to navigate and a lot of creators have to post links to their pics in their stories for people to know they've posted a new picture.

They've essentially tried to make it Tiktok when most people just want to scroll through photos.

also, i agree, twitter is a toxic site, i hate t with every fiber of my being.

oooh, well damn. now i get why people are pissed about it, just no one explains why. i'm barely on there, so i had no idea, but i'm surprised someone for this long, hasn't tried to start a better site. i know I've seen some who have, but they never fall through. thank you!

I’m sure they’ll “quit” Twitter like so many of you/them “quit” Spotify….

[angriest_girl]

And Netflix

Wow the world known this is us producers! And academy award winner Alex winter! Wow

Celebrities are sf ridiculous it’s like when they were all saying they’ll move to Canada if trump wins and not even those who are Canadian did lmao

[angriest_girl]

Alex gets a pass because he is one of the few celebs who vocally supported Amber Heard.

And I’m not gonna judge these rando producers and whatever, they CAN take a stand because no one cares. The really big celebs are all too tightly under control.
