/sm/ - Social Media

everything on my feed feels like a corporate advertisement lately. it used to be abt seeing what ur actual friends were doing, but now its just a stream of sponsored content and suggested posts from strangers. i miss when instagram was just for photos instead of this endless loop of short-form videos designed to keep u scrolling forever. the whole experience feels hollow and transactional. even twitter has lost that raw edge that made it worth checking every morning.
>the organic connection is gone
its getting harder to find smth authentic w/o digging through layers of carefully curated influencer ads . we are all just being fed whatever the advertisers paid for this week. i might finally try deleting my main accounts and going back to a simple rss reader ⚠
