Agreed. Traditional social media is inherently toxic. This is better. I fear it’s a matter of time though. As the userbase grows, I don’t know if healthy relays can be created as quickly as unhealthy people toxify existing relays.

I know the debate is as old as time, but I fall more on the side of mankind being inherently evil. So, I see most of the depravity on social media as a symptom of humanity as opposed to social media causing today’s societal problems.

As an example, places like prawnhub have great accessibility but if I want to find a pdf repository and download a technical manual for my tractor it’s like pulling teeth. People’s penchant for the absurd and destructive always outpaces the healthy.

That's pretty dark! I believe there are not too many inherently evil people, but a lot of people do evil when the social structures incentivise it, even slightly. On traditional social media it's just incentivised like crazy. But as you say, it's an argument as old as time.
