i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

    Corporate social media drives engagement using controversy. It is literally a machine that operates to piss people off. You don’t get that in the fediverse because there is no central interest puppeteering the outrage

      You are being watched. FAANG has a secret system. A machine that spies on you every hour of every day. I know, because… I built it. I designed the machine to detect spikes of dopamine but it sees everything. Violent emotions involving ordinary people. People like you. Emotions upper management considered irrelevant. They wouldn’t act so I decided I would. But I needed a partner. Someone without the spine to intervene. Hunted by privacy advocates, we work in secret. You’ll never find us. But lurker or contributor, if we can rile you up, we’ll find you.

        I recognise some of that, what was the name of that series again? - just so I can binge watch it again. It was relevant way before it’s time

      Pissed off people are more likely to interact. And we dont have it here yet.
