The post was bought by Bezos, so changes are more explainable. What about the times?

The most toxic combo is having fomo as a Hook (social for fb/Instagram, laboral for LinkedIn, etc) pushing you to check frequently and then being hit with the unending feed once inside.

At the very least I think we should separate the scroll apps and the social networks by law.

It seems very clear that if one really wants to protect children, enforcement of protection should go somewhere else - banning kids access to unlimited devices for example. But this is not the intention of course. No one is blamed for handing a toddler a phone with TikTok on.

Yup. It was new to me, as I learned from younger friends. To them it's obvious it's ride or be taken for a ride - not doing this active navigation, they'd compare it with surfing reddit using just the default frontpage unlogged.

In fact people even troll each other, for example by sending someone a mormon speech or an untranslated meme from India to screw with their feeds.

I have to say that in a way it's way better than YouTube or Instagram, where you can't really tame the thing and it will suddenly decide for a month that you like Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro because you watched a video about bodybuilding.

>Like, no, this just makes me recoil completely. Why would I want to bother with that?

Because a huge amount of interesting content is there. I also prefer the old style, but I'd rather begrudgingly adapt than be left behind in progressively decaying platforms - it is what it is.

- avoid attempts based on "unliking" things, I'm pretty sure it treats it as engagement. Instead swipe bad content away.

- avoid "accidentally engaging", like replying to a comment you feel is wrong or watching something you don't like because you were trying to see where the speech was going. Disengage ASAP with unwanted.

- positive feedback for whatever video starts getting close to what you want.

- positive implies staying the whole clip, liking, viewing comments, commenting, liking comments and the strongest of all, sharing the video (you can send it to a telegram conversation with yourself or whatever, not sure if the link you shared ever being opened is accounted for but I think nope). Do this on purpose, like if a video is cool just open the comment section and like all comments without looking.

-try to "navigate". If you want to see tech and it's currently showing you music, maybe engage with music production or Spotify tricks when they appear. It might not be the tech you're looking for, but it's closer to tech than a teenage girl dancing. You'll eventually be shown things more relevant to you, at which point you grab that current.

Also do not try to rush the process. I think updating your interests is not instant, and session time might be a metric as well.

I have no idea of the reasoning why specifically Chinese people invest in Spanish real state paying with cash, it's just what I see.

>Are you sure this isn't a political stunt?

It's our president's whole thing to take measures that sorta move the needle in a good direction but are focused on being good moves politically. My guess is he needs to act against rent prices, he can't go after the big guys (blackrock, etc) for fear of retribution and he can't go after the regular joe that buys a second house as investment. Foreign investors don't vote, so they're the next best option.

Posters in walls, flyers in windshields and so on.

It's not a comprensive list, but I would like advice or resources on:

- effectively learning key information to hit the ground running - knowledge management (checklists? Diaries?) - causing a good impression - positioning myself for impact - balancing adapting to the team with not absorbing established bad patterns - balancing being the people with less business context with being in a position where I'm supposed to lead
