 You can end up in the wrong echo chamber - for instance, a mastodon server full of commies who believe the earth is burning, and humans are bad

 Actually surrounding yourself with yes men is one of the hardest tasks anyone could pull off. Echo chambers are the poor mans yes men (very low barrier to entry), way too  topical for you to fully explore your own non-confirmist ideas.

 You get my point. It still sucks and very mind numbing.
