other social media networks are full of conflict because algorithms have been tuned to maximize interactions
the fediverse is full of conflict because everyone is mentally ill
@mia is this why tumblr has always been so popular
@mia back when I moved to fedi people would ask me if it was the same as the birdsite and I used to tell them it was more like a rehab program for people with scrolling addiction.
