This list aligns pretty well with mine.. It's easier and more satisfying than you expect to boycott companies like amazon.

Isn't that incredible? Turns out that connecting people to one another in this way fosters some healthy interaction for those who choose it but also amplifies loads of unhealthy bs. I'm one of those idiots who 15 years ago thought the internet and social media would bring about something of a second enlightenment, a golden area of progressivism, being well-informed, connected to one another in new and beautiful ways.
That's a good point. We can start with what we control by not buying crap from them directly.
If it makes your day, here's an excellent mashup: https://youtu.be/MKXp17Udsjk?si=nJosSc9_vxwOodi9
He reignnnnnns...
It may not be fb's fault directly, but they hold the keys to an enormous resource which should be properly regulated. Telling op to just make the choice ignores the structural issue at hand. It's a bit like saying if you don't like all the problems of your country, just emigrate. That's everyone's choice, but it isn't practical as a general solution. Emigrating in a digital sense is far easier, but do we wait for these common goods to be enshittificated and reinvented or can we skip some suffering and seize control already.
My brother in Christ, finding a different service isn't the difficultly. It's moving everyone else. Fb holds the keys to a network of literally billions of ppl, which for many is the only feasible way of keeping in contact with their loved ones. Yes if everyone just left the enshittificated network suddenly and all went to the same place.. but you need incentives, alternatives and coordination. "if everyone would just.." could solve a lot of problems, but we need to find realistic pathways to get there. Also your tone sucks, maybe open a window and let some fresh air in. I'll do the same.
I don't think conservatives endorsing the "left" candidate is the good news you think it is.
It applies even less in Turkish thanks to bir (1), üç (3) and dokuz (9)
I think a large part of it is that the folks who are really conscious of social media's toxic sides, the enshittification/'ennui engine' phenomenon, privacy, etc are more likely to come over here first. Makes it especially great at least for now.
Do you think it's more cuz of drivers on their phones, pedestrians on their phone or equal parts both?
You know.. He 'hit' them apparently.
And where do you even go? Civic centers, bowling alleys etc are dead. Moderate churches are disappearing. Car centric everything means if you have a disability or not much money you're screwed.
