Subnostr

It’s hard to imagine I would’ve been if we had all the access to stuff we have now as a kid. Back then I would’ve probably been an easy target for social media as an introvert with few friends. Luckily I guess we didn’t get a computer until I was almost out of high school and even then with dial up you could barely do anything anyway.

tbf parents have tech and wifi controls to gatekeep unlimited, unsupervised access. But they’re probably not layman friendly or widespread enough

There are some really good solutions for it. You can block sites in the router or if your savvy enough set up a pi-hole but yeah maybe that’s too much for a lot of people.

Sometimes tech people forget that a lot of people aren’t capable or interested in learning how to do that kind of thing.

When something is killing people it’s the govts job to step in especially when it causes them to kill other ppl in the process
