Do you notice...?

Do you notice that there's been a shift in consciousness around social media. People are being less negative and more positive.

I've noticed a lot of aggression and negativity in comments. I think Instagram may have tweaked their algorithm to favour positive posts and quiet down anti-vaxxers? Definitely something weird going on as one of my recent posts has 5k likes and that's definitely never happened before. Everything seems so chaotic and out of control, it's overwhelming. I just want to get under the bed and cry (but I need groceries).

you notice you can only like videos on youtube now. cannot down vote. and when i go on quora it's filled with heartwarming articles.

Oh, I can still down vote on YT, for now. Might come in later here (like everything else). I love Quora, it's great!

Edit: Oh, I see it now. Can down vote but nobody can see how many down votes it has (accept the creator). That's great, I like it.

There's a reason people call Facebook "Fakebook" People lie to make their lives look better, that's the way it's always been.

i don't think everyone on facebook is fake.

Of course not everyone, but a lot of them are. Only including the positive aspects of their lives or gloating/bragging.
