social media as a whole was a mistake. I get that this site technically counts, but it feels like more of a callback to "retro" social media when forums were the dominant form. It was a lot easier to take breaks from forum posting back in the day. You didn't have an algorithm that fed you content at every hour endlessly. I complain about the terrible and inconsistent wifi here, but a part of me is happy that it's this way because I'm sure I'd be seeing a lot more people glued to their phones all the time.
