I mean, I've never had a twitter account but I've heard it plenty. Just peek over at /r/conservative once a week or so.

I finally got around to deleting Facebook this year too when I found out they'll cross post your Instagram stuff to Facebook if you don't click a box somewhere.

I get a lot more stuff done without the doomscrolling.

Just peek over at /r/conservative

is that somewhere on lemmy?

Fair, but if the excuse is that you can't get the information elsewhere, that's just not true. I'd rather give reddit the page views and clicks over Facebook or Twitter.

At least over there, Nazi content actually earns you a ban.

reddit ironically has a worse front page, and worse business practices, arguably.

I mean I agree, I didn't like what they were getting up to, that's why I'm here, but as bad as Twitter? Comon. Have you heard Elon lately?

i mean spez was head mod of jailbait...

They're both pretty bad/

[–] Communist_Synthesizer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, but they got rid of those, didn't they? Elon is going full throttle in the OTHER direction. I mean, clearly one is worse than the other. I'm sure from a money perspective, it didn't make sense to shut down /The_Donald. Elon would LOVE to have that crowd.

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 months ago

i guess from that perspective sure, but they're both pretty terrible, elon just has a humiliation fetish im pretty sure.

yeah idk i find i dont really have a problem with doomscrolling, it's easy enough to just hit the close button and do something else for me, other than that i like to see the stupid shit people are posting.

also its nice to verify certain posts as "real"
