That was a really good one. I absolutely agree that breaking things back up online would be so much more helpful to society. Smaller communities online were far better.

MODERATORS
This is one thing I like about the Lemmy/Reddit format. It (somewhat) helps isolate different communities and esspecially on smaller instances/communities/subreddits making it easier to get to know people, as well as easier to moderate.
Our brains aren't truth detectors, they're survival engines.
How that plays into social media just blew my mind.
Their videos often are sponsored by billionaires
And? Is the video incorrect?
tl;dw - Bring back phpBB forums!
Nah, I'm good with my broken brain.
Yea, gimme dat good brain rot. I need 8 hours of adult cocomelon playing in the background on YouTube while I write screed on whatever the fuck they call Twitter now.
I learned a new word today!
why would the floor at Twitter need leveling?
Maybe not the floor, but the CEO surely could have some
Funny that the video saying large online social networks are ruining the fabric of our society ends with "Follow us on large online social media networks!" I guess they don't think unplugging from large social media is all that important after all.
Their videos are purely informative so I think they can get a pass on this one, better to spread awareness of these things than to not.
Can people you don't love have correct ideas too?
This talks about a lot of things I suspected. The trolls have been getting a little more reddit like here, trying to spark anger and gang up downvoting. Was it like that before the great exodus of Reddit? Not sure of what the end game would be for people to do that. This is a great place to hang, we don't need more anger or more people. Lemmy seems like the place the video is describing if we could keep the trolls at bay.
Grrrrrrrr
