Big Tech thought the teens were on their side? LMAO
Teens escaped to social media for a space somewhat free of parental authority.
Now SM is starting to emulate that authority and they thought the teens would be cool with that‽

Very astute
I don't think it is tied to teens
The fact that Lemmy is fairly popular should tell you something.
Nobody has trust or faith or confidence or any other positive buzzword towards these parasites.
and anyone that didn't already know that any corporation would happily grind you into a fine paste if it would make the line go up 0.001% is legitimately mentally challenged.
Took em long enough
I hope kids ditch social media and start loitering IRL.
About damn time.
