    Not really. It’s easy to stay informed without social media.

    Seriously you DON’T need it. Thatsjust conditioning. Take it from an old guy who’s seen that play book.

    Get ta while you’re young and you’ll defend em till the end.

    Its the same technique sports teams and terrorists use

      Without social media, we wouldn’t have real on the ground reporting, and we wouldn’t have the most documented “live streamed” genocide.

      This is what you missed by being in your old man bubble: tiktokgenocide.com

      Not that you care, you called me a bigot for saying America funds genocides.

      Without social media, you can still be in a bubble, e.g. the bubble of your friends, family, coworkers, just because they don’t talk about AI doesnt mean it’s not widely used, I work for a large corporation with over 10k employees and the AI adoption is definitely happening, won’t go into details

  Only one source of social media? That kinda sounds like the definition of a social media bubble…

  I oughta know, I’m also in the Lemmy only bubble and am completely out of touch with most people.

    Lol. Let me explain.

    For over 20 years I worked as a developer and an SEO

    I was later off two years ago. Stillout if work except for a contract here and there.

    In that time I have reduced my social media consumption. I find my head us ckearer, my days a bit brighter and problems either don’t occur as iften are more easily dealt with on a clear manner

    I honestly have come to the conclusion that social media us now directly causing mist problems we have, or at least exacerbates them.

    So intentionally limit myself to thus, I guess YouTube( though I only use it to post videos for the business I’m trying to get off the ground

    Otherwise, life’s easier without it

      Yeah, I think quite a lot of people on Lemmy have similar social media habits (or lack of) to some degree. We also tend to associate with other people like us. Especially people in tech tend to talk to other tech people, or friends and family of tech people which is a limited demographic.

      It’s a very different perspective to most people. The average person on the train has vastly different media consumption and likely very different opinions.

      There are a lot of people who consult AI in most aspects of their lives.

        Yeah I’ve seen that trend.

        Its very telling the amount of tech employees eschew social media compared to others.

        Though I may be biased by my proximity to them in my past life. I wonder if a true study has been done?
