       Believing numbers you get from Facebook seems like a weird thing for a journalist to do, but have fun pivoting to video I guess.

       @kiplet It’s so dumb. Signup is a one-way, one-click  ratchet, there’s no way to bail out without deleting your whole insta account, and if you don’t like that well fuck you you’re an active user now. The whole machine is obviously purpose-built to juice somebody’s quarterly-bonus metrics at the expense of any sort of human choice and these credulous motherfuckers reporting it are like gosh it must be popular and easy to use.It is _so dumb_.

       @mhoye and yet folks can’t resist clicking, I’ve seen so many seemingly aware people sign up and even publicly post their brand new poison sewage address

       @dfraser @mhoye What's a poison sewage address?  From context I'm guessing it has something to do with instagram/facebook/meta. I hope that's the real name for it - would be pretty badass branding.
