I used to think SM was like the Panopticon and everyone would see & react to my posts. Now I realize Iβm as much of a ghost here as I am in real life, happy if every tenth post gets a β€οΈ.
For me, SMβs simply a SoapBox, like in OldenDays! ClimbUp, SpeakYourPieces & MoveOn! Some1 ChatsBack, Cool! πEnjoyTheEngagement! I get on, I hit News, Discover & Following! After tht I gotta get up & move some! π Getting old & sitting be tuff on your joints! βπΌ
And attack them based on their race, sex, and education, because they don't recognize your obscure junior congresswoman by name, with no context. Building bridges, expanding the tent. "If liberals are so smart, why do they lose so fucking always?" Jeff Daniels as Will McAvoy. 'cause they're mean.
so be it. hopefully some of the idiots come to their senses. just look at the lady who stormed the capital and then didnβt take a pardon since she realise she fucked up. sheβs now trying to work to make things right.
It's even funnier when someone comes from another social media, does a lot of effort to get follows and interactions, gets to certain threshold and starts rambling about how "random users" that followed it are now interacting with it and leaving comments under "its content".
I literally don't even understand this complaint.
Having people I don't know interact with me is *the entire point*.
I am auDHD. I literally cannot tolerate public places as a way to meet others.
This is *great* for me, because of exactly this feature.
Same thing happened to me (apparently) I invalided their privacy commenting on a post from their wall. I felt like pointing out the post controls, but decided to let the drama go. π€¨
I just scroll the discover tab when I am bored and comment on peoples posts like we've been friends for 20 years. π I wonder how many times someone has been like "who the fuck is this?"

It's called SOCIAL media for a reason. π
Also them: Not you, stranger danger!

If I wanted to do something that people can't interact with, I'd either just type a text file or host a regular website
This got me blocked frequently.
I understand,
though I'll start it again,
'cause I found a few friends.
Not quite sure what to do with the data point of the person who blocked me for liking their Rorschach blot post, though.
