    Well there goes the last social media platform I used. No more.
    In the past month, it's turned into a TikTok like piece of garbage.

    Where as before, my feed was inspiring illustrators, travel photos, typography, graphic design etc... it's now as follows:

    • 2 posts from things I follow.

    *scroll*

    • TikTok like reel video of some random shit like a dog doing something, or some odd asian girls doing retaded dances to everything.

    • An advert for something I've never even searched for or within any of the categories of things I'd ever buy.

    - repeat as scroll down -

    Total turd. I hate all those short form tik tok clips.
    I see youtube trying to push it too.

    Social media in 2023 is becoming more and more like one big home video TV shows from the 90's where people sent in VHS clips of someone falling off a ladder and dogs doing silly things.

    • It's gone the same as Facebook which is also a feed of junk - tik tok like reel video + adverts and occasionally a post from someone you follow.shapesalad
    • It's not 'Social' media. It's '90s home video footage' + ' adverts' media.shapesalad
    • they sneak it in. if you click on a video and scroll, you now are in a different stream of short tik Tok clips... fucking hate it. YouTube is going the same.inteliboy
