  • I technically still have social media accounts, but I don’t use them (other than to access info I can’t without them, like my neighborhood’s announcements). I used to be more active on social media - even had a Friendster account, to give you history here! - but the algorithm interference has taken all joy out of it. Plus, conversations with strangers are less often in good faith, so I’m more reluctant to engage because if I get a response it’s 50/50 whether it will be worthwhile and civilized. Too many trolls, too many people trying to platform themselves, too much algorithm interference. I used to learn so much and have such fun online, but I’m pretty skittish/jaded/burnt out.
