MODERATORS
How do you separate the signal from the noise on such a platform?
I'm asking because down voting serves a purpose, namely the ability to indicate to others that the content is outside the norm for whatever reason.
Now I realise that there is nothing wrong with being outside the norm, but how do you indicate that injecting yourself with bleach to clean up COVID is not a treatment plan for anything or anyone?
There is only noise on that particular platform so you stay off it.
Then you go back to reddit or wherever where it's a corporate echo chamber where dissenting opinions are censored instead.
What's the solution?
You're on one possible solution. Otherwise just get off social media for most things. I've been doing it more recently and I feel much better.
