this is gonna pump out racism, antisemitism and 9/11 content, isn’t it.
Interesting watching social media turn into… Just media. Nothing social about it anymore, It’s little bite sized chunks of infotainment.
Traditional media was nothing like this. It wasn’t so granular, it couldn’t create individual realities for individual users.
The websites we use have the power to determine whether we believe in genocides or not or if we know the civics of our own community.
Instagram should have been a weed delivery service
Likewise, AirDrop should have been a drone-based delivery service. Maybe they could partner up!
“Drop” in my language is a word for “a person you KYC everything shady on” - kinda like a “money mule” in English, but way broader. So…
I thought AirDrop was a service for scuba divers
Their logo is literally a camera so what’s the point of the app then? Though I’ve heard it’s absolutely overrun with AI slob anyway just like Facebook itself. ‘Social’ networks just can’t help themselves becoming the dead internet theory, can they?
Sharing photos was the point of the app 6 years ago. Now the point is to either meticulously modify yout online image to look like the coolest person on the world - or just spampost memes/porn/disinformation to get followers and brand deals

The point is to return vale to the shareholders
In case of Meta, this not actually true.
They have a dual layer share structure where Zuck holds special class share that provide him full control even if he doesn’t have a majority of “ownership class” shares.
I mean, I am sure Zuck wants “line go up”, but we are at point where it’s more like his personal fiefdom and he can tell shareholders to bugger off and let him burn $46 Billion on his weird metaverse fetish.
The ungodly rich batards have created another reason the French were so on point
Instagram was such a great platform in the early days when it was for the most part used by photographers. I lost my interest in it when they started forcing videos instead. Even photographers needed to make videos of still photos in order to get any visibility.
How about they make the app stop refreshing my feed when I have to put the phone down for a second? Got real tired of losing what I was looking at when I re-opened it. I stopped using Instagram because of it.
Ugh. I hope they clearly flag AI content and allow users to filter it.
I was thinking the same, but then thought, no, let the platform burn down with faked videos now, so that we get some kind of “Generated with AI” watermark requirement by law on all future videos to prevent destabilising society.
They already require you to tag content made with AI.
AI will eventually get so good that you won’t be able to tell if it is AI or not so the tag will become unenforceable.
If it’s so good that it’s impossible to tell from human-made content then it literally doesn’t matter wether it’s real or not as there’s no difference.
