@2433bcdf A couple of months ago, I signed up for an Instagram course for authors run by two German women (waaaaaaay too expensive - I'm really annoyed with myself that I signed up for that thing), and the stuff I've seen and experienced in this context is... not good.
@c48aa580 Ugh. That sounds awful. I stay away from Instagram and TikTok. Yes, I know a lot of authors sell books through those channels, but I cannot bring myself to wade into those cesspools. Maybe only with a burner laptop I only use for that stuff. The spying isn't cute at all.
