Watching Meet the Press on how we manage social media. Nice follow up discussion with my wife on the subject. We have different views. I don’t use Facebook, Instagram TikTok, et all. I use MB, Mastodon and increasing less Twitter. My wife uses Facebook and instagram to keep in touch with family. Her feed is filled with advertising and stuff she doesn’t follow. It’s astounding to see the unsolicited stuff in her feed.
In the early days of SM, I used to set up small businesses on the platforms and saw the changes in the feeds over time, that’s when I took myself off and got out of that business.
If you’re not paying for something, you’re the product.
