Worked fine in what sense? Teen weren't getting getting depressed from watching perfect, fake lives posted by influencers? They weren't bullied? I doubt it. I mean, you're right, you can make social networks less toxic but in the end the entire concept is just silly, useless and harmful. The only way to win is not to play.
I'm definitely old enough to remember it, I just never used it. But maybe you're right. I remember the early youtube, before google took it over and yeah, it was very different. I'm just not sure if it turned in what it is today because evil corporations monetized it or because people are just stupid assholes. Probably little bit of column A, a little bit of column B.
I know about it but I don't think a program aimed at teenagers would stop Myanmar genocide...
What? The post says 'thwarted initiatives meant to improve the well-being of teens'. You're jumping out with Myanmar and I'm the one moving goalposts? Delusional much?
Mostly column A imo
