TikTok is bad enough but Insta is soooo much more shitty advertising, grifters and AI generated BS on Instagram. Maybe it's the algorithm that's worse? I've had insta for a month now and it's still feeding me the worst shit.

Let's just say I was never given manosphere videos on TikTok. Instagram seems to be sending them to me by the boatload. Tons of videos "sponsored" places called "Mandvise" or some shit featuring a grizzled old white dude saying shit like "When a woman says she just wants to be friends what she really means is...." And "Women be acting on fickle emotional whims."

Like dude how many of these videos do I have to report before the algorithm gets the message!?

And don't get me started on people who sell shit on Instagram. What a shitty way to run a business, just sell your shit on an actual website FFS.

I'd put this on my laptop, a proper sticker instead of some [insert company/foss project] logo most laptops are filled to the brim with.

I might get some of the "FULLY COOKED" labels and wear them on my shirt when I'm having a bad day.

A few years ago I got some labels that said "For Rectal Use Only" and stuck them to a bunch of large objects on April Fools' Day. Maybe that's how The Algorithm discovered my fascination with weird labels.

“For Rectal Use Only” and stuck them to a bunch of large objects
