I like the term “antagorithm.”
That is an excellent portmanteau.
What do you mean my feed is full of doom.
Yeah, the fediverse is filled to the brim with negative propaganda.
I've had to filter out a lot of instances for being full of propaganda, most likely Russian.
There's a lot from.the CCP too, not just the Kremlin.
What negative propaganda
How dare you use Brave browser! How dare you drive a car! How dare you have a lawn!
All valid criticisms
You forgot "How dare you use Sync for Lemmy!".
What? Not enough constnza stepping on people in your feed or what?
Nah, its just as bad here as anywhere.
Maybe the bots have gotten to us or maybe people genuenly really like sharing rage bait shit.
Oh, here we are - another day and ANOTHER Reddit vs Fediverse meme! I'm soooo sick of all these extremely accurate memes being posted by so many beautiful and intelligent people on here. I bet you even smell good! The nerve of some people...
Honestly I’m getting more corporate climate political doom and gloom on here than I was on reddit.
corporate climate political doom and gloom
Hmm, why do I have a feeling you might be referring to climate change related news as climate political doom and gloom
Thank you for introducing me to the term "bloomscrolling"!
Man idk what kind of bubble you're living in. Maybe you just like to believe anything you touch in inherently better, but it really isn't. This has and will suffer from all the same pit falls as any other social media.
There's also something called coo.. nevermind
I'm currently woomscrolling on Tinder.
A Hoya Kerri (heart plant)! :)
My gf had got me one years ago and it's still the only plant I have, it's really cute
Meanwhile the unrecognized plights of the real world march onward!
I was never a twitter user, though. I still prefer to doomscroll through Nature.
