   at least the fediverse proofs that it's not 'the algorithm' that makes people insane on social media

     @lain it’s not social media making cunts insane at all. It’s just the scapegoat.

     @heavens_feel @lain I feel like some people don't see fediverse as a place to blogpost on and share with communities but as another social media where they need to grow their following and get a higher amount of notifications for their dopamine shot.
     Then there are others that see it as some kind of social activism platform, taking themselves very seriously, when their audience is minimal and the war they're fighting is only taking place in their heads. The amount of larping as the next revolutionary leader and death threats I see everyday on here makes me question how they see their fellow men online. "Your head will be the first I mount on a pike" is not the epic own you think it is, people won't get killed because they wore masks for a few months, much less by you living in the middle of nowhere spending most of your day online, despite your community of a dozen people favoriting your post.

     @lain There was a fediblock post about this that explained it really well, but I can't find it.

     @lain In the fediverse, it's the people that make the algorithm insane. We're the predators, the computers are the prey.

     @lain
     Remember when before ubiquitous Internet we thought the problem was that people did not have the access to information?
     Yeah, it also turned out not to be the root problem.
