Meta and twitter cease to exist tomorrow and 99% of the issues are solved IMO

The fediverse is social media and it doesn't have anything close to the same kinds of harmful patterns

It's almost like the problem isn't social media, but the algorithms that put content in front of your eyeballs to keep your engagement in order to monetize you. Like a casino.

Facebook was pretty boring before they tried to make money. Still ick, but mostly just people posting pictures of activities with family or friends.
