 I don't like the way legacy social media is designed to keep people pissed to sell more soap or whatever.

I started pondering the problem after watching the Social Dilemma and reading Jaron Lanier's Ten Arguments For Deleting Social Media.

You have thousands of followers though. Xwitter is probably more valuable for you than me. 
 Reminder that you are in control of your motions. No one or nothing can make you pissed, only you can make you pissed.

Always remain in control of yourself. ✌️  
 I agree,  but what percentage of the world's population is manipulated by these algos?

My guess is a statistically significant percentage of them.
