Had a week away from Twitter, popped back in and its horrible, so toxic, absolute and extreme.
Without sounding dramatic, shit algorithms are sending humanity to a cliff edge, likely ww3.

Mine is the opposite. Full of startup porn. Constant MRR self congratulations. Kinda sickens you. I only pop in for a bit of design inspiration and share some tweets but can’t stick around long.
My Twitter feed is people screaming loudly to be heard. It’s sad.
If its only with 1s and 0s via computers it will be fine.
I just get fed stuff the algo thinks will ragebait me for engagement. It used to work. Now I don’t care, for my sanity’s sake. Ignorance is bliss or something
X for extreme suitcoiner takes.
Nostr for extreme cypherpunk takes.
Twitter really opened my eyes this past week after being shadowbanned
Odell will fix it.
Did you mention "nostr"?
The 100% shadowban the word.
Just hang here man good vibes
In Nostr you have to go out of your way to pick a fight, in Twitter you just land in them.
Totally. Its demented.
I have in the past a few times yes. But didn’t seem like it was the reason this time. Oh well, I’d rather be here
oh is that what you think, cunt?
outside, right now.
imma fuck you up
You win. I cant be arsed ~ nostr vibes
Totally true. Social anxiety, division within societies and decrease in genuine discussions are clearly caused by those algorythms.
Social science shows, that more polarized posts generate more comments, more reposts and let people use an app for more time.
So. Every eyeball capturing machine automatically tends to push every individual towards more polarized content every day.
And we are not strong enough as individuals to win against those algos. The only option is to use better ones. Such algos that prefer right above wrong.
And yes so often right is might very boring.
the world ain't that bad. just look at the world cup.
the doom merchants said it was going to be an epic failure.
but just shows all humanity needs is a few beers, a bit of sunshine, and a sing along.
maybe a kilt as well.
and look at Seattle. people in American flags, cheering a military fly over, getting all patriotic. who saw that coming?
Yes, never say nostr or you’ll never be heard from again 😂
You’re safe here. Heh heh heh
Give us the dramatic sounding take 😄
I agree , good source of news but in small doses only to protect my sanity
Agrees, I just went through the same thing
Good to know! Threatened much? 😂
Stay off that shit bruh, there are dozens of us to hang out with on nostr

Nostr is still very birds of a particular plumage and I hope that it will be tamed and homogenised for the Public
Ditched it years ago.. don’t miss it.
😂😂😂
Opt-out and build bridges 👍🏻
Every one pseudonyms was banned there, one after the other, years ago. Not because I was profane or inciteful, but because I was saying what Tulsi Gabbard said the other day about the Fauci cabal and their scamdemic.
It's been 2 weeks or so off X for me, since i got perma muted and ya, i do feel more chill
Not WW3 - just extreme enough to build the narrative to justify handing the country over to Palantir’s digital ‘minority report’ gulag.
Nostr can do so much more
It's worse in some ways and better in others. There is far more interesting content, like anything related to local AI which is nonexistent here
BREAKING
I hit X maybe once every couple months. Only joined twitter for Bitcoin Twitter.. Now unless they are here they don't get my attention..
Still FB, cause family/friends.. And that place is a steaming pile of shit!! Toxic garbage!
You mean the world's richest man might be sowing division on behalf of his handlers?!?!
I'm nostr only - X is just such a depressing experience
Freedom to only see content from followers - reminds me of early days when a YT home page was just your subscribers...
