I’m not very active on Mastodon, but saw this post - browsing the bluesky hashtag for a bit afterwards did not really give me much info. I can definitely imagine enshittification happening there, but what is causing the current drama in particular?

    Twitter was a thing because celebrities won’t text at you directly.

    Not that texting can’t be toxic and social, though. Whatsapp groups are a major vector of far right radicalization, among other super shady stuff. All social media was a mistake.

      All social media was a mistake.

      They weren’t a mistake. They were deliberate and calculated. They came to us with lies and fake gifts, but ultimately offered only serfdom.
