User Responsibility & Control

Algorithms are feeding a lot of ad-supported garbage to users.

It’s within the responsibility & control of users to choose what and how to engage.

It takes effort to find & engage w/ the right people. Influencers chasing clout burn out.

Moving to an ad-free ecosystem (i.e. the Fediverse) is like a methadone clinic for users hopped up on digital, microdosed dopamine hits.

Users of federated, non-algorithmic open-source products are participants.

Giving up after one or two posts = easy.

Taking the time to find and follow the right

people and engage = hard.

Users have the power and ability to make social media and consumption of user stories a healthy, rewarding experience.
