Trying to prep myself for when they foxify all social media platforms.
Edit: you all better be careful saying you don’t see any of it. Leon might catch wind.
They would need to be force feeding me conservative content in order for me to be able to answer the question. They’re not and never have been. Same applies to ads.
That’s the neat part, I’m not.
i kept using it for the few mildly high quality posts by queer people, but it feels like it almost stopped. might delete my account now
Just use it for the porn. Occasionally will click on a trending tweet and immediately get bombarded with tons of Russian propaganda. “Ukraine are Nazis” “America first!” “Look at this poor starving (white) american child, Biden just approved 60 billion yo Ukraine!”
All shit like that, it focuses very strongly on what Russia wants Americans to believe, in my experience.
Don’t forget endless AI generated images that morons just eat up
Gross
Not the pron of course

There’s no value otherwise
It’s wild to me that so many people trust Elon with their porn viewing habits 👀
I installed a extension to block everyone with a checkmark after Elon introduced paying for them. My feed has even less shitters then before its amazing. If I ever want to add more I just go to any AOC tweet and let the extension work.
Not all humans live in America. It is possible for people to use Twitter without seeing material related to your country’s political shituation.
I recently had to login in to update to a new 2FA app and oh my was it a wasteland. No one I had followed was still on it. And I mean that after scrolling for 5 minutes. It was just terrible.
I mean, if they left it, possibly went to Mastodon, that sounds wonderful to me:-).
It’s not perfect, but Mastidon is starting to pass the tipping point for content.
I like to clown on nazis
Especially when they’re shitting bricks in the reply section of a post from either Mark Hamill or Stephen King
funnily enough, my twitter feed doesn’t have any conservative media.
it is full of gay bara scalie porn, though.
For me it’s Russian invasion of Ukraine. With a few local politicians doing stupid things mixed in.
I tell some people to KMS just so the website forces me into a ban for 6 days.
Its nice.
Sounds like a healthy use of your time
You mean you tell them to KYS right?
Yes. Im not doing it out of pure rudeness, It’s all towards people who either openly will share Pedophilic/Animal abuse content or people that will mock/turn school shootings into some kind of conspiracy theory. Those people fucking sicken me.
I follow scientists, virologists, epidemiologists, etc and get tweets with the latest covid research. I also see a lot of stuff from Gaza and a few things about movies. I’m moving off there but while some people are only on there and giving me information, I’ll keep going back.
Be the change you want to see. Those people will never leave the platform as long as people like you still engage with them there.
Well they should.
Pot, kettle
Edit I’m a dumb dumb and used the wrong phrase.
I mean Lemmy is social media just like Twitter, and is not free from the risk of political “forcing”
So I meant it like Twitter, Lemmy. But me dumb
I’m forcing conservative media on you?
Lemmy, and other political media.
I guess the phrase is wrong. I’ll edit my comment saying I’m a dumb dumb for using the wrong phrase
A forum is social media? I don’t know any motherfucker here.
I won’t even click on Twitter links, let alone actively visit. You should do the same.
Not on Twitter but lol, what a leading question
It’s nice to see a place where conservative ideas can be expressed without being buried. It makes me feel less alone.
Which conservative ideas, though? It’s fine to disagree on like tax policy, or food regulation, but hopefully you can understand why many people won’t tolerate beliefs that actively harm others, even if you firmly hold those beliefs
