On most social networks, each post is met with flame bait and off-hand cynicism. Even the most benign post is dragged down with comments about how stupid/boring/etc the poster is. Why people insist on being so unpleasant, I'll never know. But they are very loud about it.
Then there is the endless stream of AI spam, GOP and foreign propaganda, tracking and advertising. It would be nice if the ads weren't nearly all fake products and snake oil. It seems the real product advertisers don't want any part of it either.
People are given ample incentives to leave it all behind and focus more on real life instead.
"But they are very loud about it." haha yes. Social media seems to be largely centered around ego today- it is interesting to see how our need for validation has somewhat shifted from at least presenting ourselves as uprighteous to aggressively calling attention upon ourselves by being rude.
