    Oh don’t worry, OP, soon you’ll be a cranky old perosn who’ll be complaining about whatever social media the young’uns are using and doing your part to “kill” something else by using it

      Promise?

      Cause all I want is a platform that isn’t shoving ads down your throat; respects privacy; helps you feel connected with peers; and isn’t plastered with hate.

      I’ll be ruining quite a few platforms with those expectations.

        Facebook was all those things in the beginning.

        Reddit was all those things in the beginning.

        Twitter was all those things in the beginning.

        LinkedIn was all those things in the beginning.

        The Internet in general was all those things in the beginning.

        I’ve never used IG/TT but I assume they were all those things in the beginning.

        Lemmy will probably be said to be most of those things in the beginning.

        With age comes wisdom, which comes once you’ve seen the pattern happen enough times, which can only come with age.

        Sincerely,

        One of those old people.
