Also double-dipping on my comment but that’s why I make a blocklist of all the politics and doomer sublemmys (or whatever they’re called). But there’s always new ones popping up it’s not a sustainable solution.

Btw, I don’t have a problem with politics but it is impossible to have a nuanced discussion on politics on social media so no point reading the 24/7 doomer headlines and then scrolling through partisan idiots bickering in the comments.

Same, until I buy a house there’s no reason to litter my life with bullshit that just needs to get moved between apartment to apartment. And yea, I’ve been considering the van life / RV life too. Depending on where you’re at financially, the cost of van loan may be far less than what you were ever paying in rent. Of course: I am incredibly blessed and privileged enough to have a completely remote job.

I don’t think we can do anything about it until we solve human verification. Not only is human verification a really hard problem to solve (and also while respecting user privacy), there is a for-profit motive to fill the internet with crap (advertisement industry & state propaganda)
