best thing about being ignored by the algorithm and getting no traction is that the pressure is off. I don’t post that much. because I don’t get the dopamine hit by seeing likes, etc., I check less. overall screen time is down by HOURS/day because the algo doesn’t like me and I just stopped trying.

I think we all need to work on less screen time. I'm going to work on it - later.😁

Same. I think the website is open-source but I'm not sure if the algo is. I see some people posts every day. There are weird recommendations I never liked and actually blocked. It's so strange.

i limit my time here and have no other media accounts. i had no idea there is a algorithm. i do, however, see thousands of people with screen addictions. i’ve seen families who rarely get together all sitting together in a social setting and every one of them staring at a screen. ffs, people!

Not sure about algo here; but I do know this is an account where I have fewer followers and, like other accounts, not much traction.
