Yes it does. I presume you don't wanna live in a world where Elon owns every company and you have no choice to work for him even if his wage is livable

What if there was a way for the masses to regulate them in a decentralized matter. Oh wait

I would argue nearly 100% of those couples would have found someone off the apps and would have had a much happier dating experience if they didn't exist.

Just because they work that doesn't make them a good experience. Show me one dating app with good reviews.

YouTube is the only algorithmic thing I use and I'm not getting depression content so not sure what the point is. I do constantly click not interested to get the algorithm to recommend what I actually want to though. If I was getting bad content I'd think it'd be pretty easy to stop watching YouTube and watch more Netflix or something.

Completely removing all screens would be quite hard though yes in the modern world. Tbh idk how people lived before TVs.

Tax social media platforms' advertising money. Their current incentives of maximizing engagement is fucking everyone especially the youth.

I did not know that killed shorts. Good to know! The only thing is I don't find the home tab too addicting and I feel like it can be nice for when I'm getting into a completely new topic.

For example, I'm just getting into music production so I have no idea who to subscribe to and just searching music production gives me way too much content. I had this show up on my home page which I thought was really helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WT66Qwms-Mw&t=1572s

Maybe I should selectively turn it on and off, because yeah usually it's way too aggressive unless it's a new topic. I really wish social media sites gave more control over the algorithm. Like I just want to talk to an LLM and tell it what type of algorithm I want. More tame algorithm goes against their business model though so maybe I'll have to build it myself :)
