  • Haven been more or less inactive Facebook the last 15 years. As it made me depressed. Removed the app and my phone battery lasted 25% longer.

    Since then I would spend 15 minutes scrolling maybe 3 times a year.

    The changes are wild as the algorithm has too little data to work. Like two years ago every third post was a different picture of Ana de Armas and they all started with the text from “Havana to Hollywood”. There would be 20 posts like that until I stopped scrolling

    I have had every 3rd post be a cat fishing attempt too. Same caption “why is it so hard to find a nice guy” same model, different picture; repeated 20 times.

    I started using marketplace this last year. I have been forced from Craigslist to Kijiji and now to marketplace. Have resented each move.

    Reddit I will only lurk logged out. If will search Google with Reddit for product reviews or questions that I can’t answer here. My mental health has improved greatly.

    YouTube I still watch late shows highlights most weeks or will look up product reviews, comparisons, or DIY.

    I don’t watch any streaming.

    I don’t watch algorithm suggested videos. I don’t watch vertical videos or other slop.
