    It’s fucked up how threads immediately devolved into a bigoted Antisemitic shit hole like twitter in a fraction of the time.

    Is it impossible to develop a social media platform that doesn’t get overrun with conspiracy whack jobs and assholes?

        It’s just not a useful platform at present. Maybe one day it’ll be relevant enough but not today.

      Social media in modern times is an instrument of war. It will always be used as such whenever possible. So no, I think the answer is no

        It is fascinating watching what Iran, Qatar and Russia have pulled off this past few years.

        Sadly I’ve just come to assume most people are Antisemitic bigots these days. I’d rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.
