And true to my word, I haven’t opened Reddit since yesterday. Social media post-2008 was unsustainable and at someone else’s expense (the investors). Now that they want their money back, social media will go to shit until better business models are developed.

Since the lockdowns of 2020, social media in the form of highly concentrated chat rooms became popular again (Discord, please don’t become any more shit than you already are!). If social media will be going monke again, 1997-style, so be it.

I’m considering hosting my own instance. I have a spare Windows/Linux dual boot laptop. Mf can stay connected to the internet and sit right underneath my router. Lemme sift through the docs see what I can find.
