Out of curiosity, I did take a look into X, using a fresh throwaway account. I did only follow a handful of Linux and open source related accounts.
The X algorithm presented me:
- Crazy misogyny
- Racial, Xenophobic posts
- Right wing propaganda from the #fckafd
- Hate-speech, anti Israel posts
- Pro Russian propaganda
- Anti-Vax conspiracy theories with pure unadulterated hate towards medical professionals
- Tons of climate change deniers
What a shithole of the Internet. What a dumpster-fire. I had 0 posts, only followed tech-accounts and had zero interaction with any of that shit. Yet my timeline was full of that.
*account delete noises* *app uninstall noises* *phone disinfection noises*
