I stopped using mainstream social media in 2019 but my accounts are still active so I can snoop on random people I went to college with and holy shit every time I get on Facebook it's so much worse on ways I don't even understand. Most recently I got on to look at something and my feed was completely unrecognizable because it was all AI generated slop from pages I have never heard of and not any updates from people I know. It's crazy what people will accept if it's done slowly enough I guess. I legitimately don't understand why anyone would use Facebook as it exists today. At least when I quit I could at least understand why people used it.
