It is interesting where you go on (eg. echo chambers) but like 9gag for example is super racist and doesn't seem to be moderated.
Like TruthSocial do real people actually use that? Crazy
I notice more and more accounts use it, particularly the spicy commenters. Which is whatever, I try to stay away from social media now, this is SM here but at least it's more technically oriented/useful.
It probably detected your gender (male), age, location, social graph, as a combination of all these that you would be interested in AI-generated softcore pornography. And for the average user with your stats, they absolutely are.
Of course, nobody at Meta hardcoded their algorithm to do this: it’s just naturally found out the kind of content a person with your specs loves. Sorry, OP
I get a couple of thirst traps in my feed, but not many. I definitely get a metric ton of AI shit.
The stuff I'm actually following, friends, etc is pretty diluted.
I wish,
but from personal experience I'm afraid quite a bunch of them are creepy old guys which have no idea how creepy they have become(1), because they are in a bubble with mostly only other creepy old guys
(1): Like I don't mean people which always have been creepy or "secret/hidden" creepy. But people which through increasingly more "not caring" and echo champers/ad bubbles and similar twisting their world perception/social feedback loop have become increasingly more creepy in the last 10-20 years.
I signed up in 2023 after not using it since 2008. I can't believe how bad the marketplace feature is compared to craigslist. It's trying to get me to keep coming back and serve me different ads. I just want to see all the local ads that match my search!
If you interact in any way with propaganda accounts, even just look too long at the posts when they first randomly pop up, they've target locked you.
I'm a liberal dude. 90% of the political content I get on both FB and Insta is far-right propaganda, sprinkled in with some typical brocasters.
No amount of "Not interested" will make it go away, either.
This part here kills me. I’ve also been forced to engage in the Zuckerverse. I hate WhatsApp.
If you don't interact with the product, you get lowest denominator crap.
While you may be able to add a small bend to the feed, it's really 90% in their power, not yours.
I'm looking at Facebook "Home" feed. Funny how they added a separate "Friends" feed, the original purpose of the site, that's not the default.
I accidentally switched to that account the other day.
The feed was the most right-wing, Fox News crap you could imagine!
Enjoy your small circle of internet strangers sharing a common interest, you don't need to become viral.
