I'm the same. I only follow one subreddit, and I barely post and interact here. I've completely removed any and all news sources too. There's nothing i can do about any of the stories the news throws up. More people would get healthier is they got offline.

X for doubt. Remember, users had no reason to sign up for a Facebook or Instagram account in the first place. Users just willingly gave information away to these evil corporations at will. I could very well see the future of the Fediverse growing. The past few months of using Lemmy and scrolling Mastadon has been amazing.

👌👍 this will definitely happen 🙄

You people will repost any propaganda that fits your objective.

You all honestly believe social media and a large chunk of Internet traffic is just going to go away in 2 years? Jesus Christ this article is from a fucking link farm FFS.

And as a result the echo chamber will be even louder for everyone believing the bullshit. Bill Gates should hurry up and activate the brain chips.
