The first post is always some viral TikTok bullshit posted by people who can't even speak english properly and I find myself blocking one account after the next. Yesterday, it was a chimp rescuing an infant from a zoo and the community notes said it was AI generated. I watched 15 seconds of nothing.The app has become a fucking drain of my time, it's pissing me the fuck off. It's like going to the library but between every isle is a fucking clown doing magic tricks to catch your eyeballs and distracting you from why you're even there in the first place. How the fuck do people put up with this?As I was waiting for the captcha, I refreshed the timeline and got this. Yet another bullshit post from a fucking AI account at the top of my recommended, and it turns out the video is AI generated. How is this acceptable to people?
>>109091913>still using social media>still getting upset over it
>>109091913all tiktoks are badI hate vertical videos I hate vertical videos I hate vertical videos I hate vertical videos I hate vertical videos
>>109091913>It's like going to the library but between every isle is a fucking clown doing magic tricks to catch your eyeballs and distracting you from why you're even there in the first place.Welcome to 2026 Interwebz> How the fuck do people put up with this?They practically stopped using it.
>>109091913when my kids were born they had rather dark hair but it also looked like it because the heir was just wet like a few weeks later they were completely blonde so unless your kids come out black don't lose your shit
>>109091913You're using a website where he literally pays pajeets to piss you off, retard. Just stop fucking using it.
>>109091913I come back here because even with the shilling and subversion, at least there's no direct cash incentive for "most" people here to post things.I respect posting slop/bait for the purpose of bait and being annoying, but not the massive quantities on X and entire namefagged identities build around it
>>109091913>Like/Retweet stuff you do see on your feed>Lurk accounts you aren't following but may cater to your interests>Use 'not interested in this post' for stuff you don't want to see (not the block button you fucking retard)It's not at all that complicated.>t. Feed is mostly an art gallery by JP/KR/CN artists with some occasional vidya news
>>109092015Yeah I relate to this. The worst part in all of it has got to be the namefagging. That account in the OP has "Posting funny videos" in the profile. It's repulsive.Pic rel another slop account clogging up my feed. "Investment wisdom", automated reposting of old clips with gay quotes. And the comments are full of AI accounts engagement farming...
>>109092054>Thinks I haven't abused the 'not interest in this post' button
Twitter was a retarded idea in the first place, literally worse than Reddit. I'm surprised people only turned against it when >muh elon bought it.
>>109091913>using shitter>complaining about shit>elon saar, save me!inderdasting
i dunno bro my feed is fine
>>109092133No idea, then. The algo is influenced based off what you see so if you mostly watch IRL stuff, AIshit is bound to slip in.>>109092155I wouldn't be using it as much if nips weren't nuking their entire Pixiv portfolios for it and JP misskey is basically a walled garden.
Getting on my nerves>No idea, then. The algo is influenced based off what you see so if you mostly watch IRL stuff, AIshit is bound to slip in.So you don't get this bullshit? I've gotten 4 clips at the top so far. Asian bullshit. Elon is outsourcing western eyes to third world countries. At least western TikTok shit would be preferable, I don't want to watch inane shit from China, India or Nigeria, for FUCK's sake
Kek, I asked Grok this last week. You can block accounts all you want, but you'll keep seeing AI slop because Elon prioritizes views and quantity over quality. Algorithms are shit when they don't generate you money. Giving shit you actually want to see doesn't make at much money as AI slop which has higher engagement.
I wasn't aware real people used x. I thought it was like some scheme to defraud advertisers.
>>109091913I killed my Facebook and Twitter accounts 10 years ago. Still have an Instagram account because I don't have the heart to get rid of it, but haven't posted in 7 years. Feels great to stay away from all that shit. I'm sure it has gotten orders of magnitude worse since "AI" went mainstream. No tiktok, youtube, telegram, discord, odyssey etc... Absolutely fuck all social media, except for this place. Actually fuck this place too, kind of. Only thing it has going for it is being able to be mostly anonymous.
>using normie crap like twitter and facebookgo away summerfag
>>109091922>posting this on social media
>>109092054nah, this has nothing to do with your algo. twitter just wants to shill its latest feature.my recommended feed is entirely anime lolis and other jp posts. with the exception of these random normieslop/pol garbage videos injected randomly
>>109091913go back OP, and kill your self
My for you page is good, dunno what to tell you.He did restrict me last month even though I only heart fanart and japanese girls on this account but got it back after appeal.
>>109091913kys
>>109091913>How is this acceptable to people?It is not. Normal people have moved to bluesky.
>>109091913The algorithm works almost exclusively by feeding you posts on the same venue of what you engage with. I use twitter for art and I get art content almost exclusively with very very few attempts at ragebait from the western side of internet artists which I just scroll past. I have never even seen the brown side of twitter you seem to be bombarded with. Funny enough I'm a race realist commonly labeled as a 'racist' but twitter doesn't even make an effort to even show me that kind of content because all my interactions are art posts. Stop feeding the machine with attention towards things you hate.
>>109091913Use the extension "control panel for twitter" it forcibly removes all of the algorithmic bullshit and lets you hide all of the engagement farming trend shit
>>109091913Dawg my feed on X is just Japanese adult video actresses posing in pictures. Never see any political shite outside of the trending tab on the right hand side.
>>109096557this and /thread
the current social media cycle looks like thistiktok/insta -> twitter -> reddit -> 4chanIt's a sort of digital human centipede
>>109091913START MUTING AND BLOCKING AND STOP CLICKING ON THE FUCKING CLICKBAITIT'S REALLY THAT SIMPLE
>>109096097Just because you can talk to people, doesn't mean it's social media.
>>109091913curate your own feed by interest dumbassyou can black list topics
>>109091913just use nitterium, bro.
>>109097310>START MUTING AND BLOCKINGwaste of time. you can't defeat the x algo with muting and blocking.
>>109091913it's why i came back to 4chan. unironically better posts here, its so bad on X that reading posts from the retards here feels enlightening in comparison
>>109091913WRITE DOWN ALL INTERESTING ACCOUNTS.MOVE TO NITTERIUM.DELETE X.
>>109097367You literally can. Maybe you couldn't in the past, but ever since Musk took over your algorithm is hypertuned to your behaviour.And don't expect things to immediately change if the only thing you've done over the past five years is click on political brainrot bullshit.
>>109097393Muting and blocking are placebos; it’s homeopathy. We don’t know how the algorithm works. We don’t know if Musk might completely overhaul the algorithm tomorrow. It’s a total waste of time to bother with muting and blocking. It might work today, but if Musk decides otherwise, he can undo all your effort with a single click. The user has no power. All we have is the illusion of power. I’m not playing along with this dishonest game. I know that all my effort and algorithm "optimization" are built on shifting sands because the unhinged capitalist at the helm can change the rules at any moment. No thanks.
>>109097459What a retarded fucking post.
>>109091913So get off the app you fucking faggot!
>>109091913>AI generated engagement bait for normalfagskek
Didn't they want to ban tiktok?
>>109091913>clown doing magic tricks to catch your eyeballsgood analogy
>>109091913Opposite problem for me. Sometimes I'm bored and want to use it but the UI is so bad and icky I just can't.
Switch the view from "For you" to "Following" so you only see tweets from people you actually follow, ya dingus.
>>109097857In the end they just forced it to transfer from being a Chinese data collection and spy operation to an Israeli one. Which, I would argue, is far worse.
>still using twitter after it became XThis one is on you.. any self respecting man has already deleted this Indian infested app.Just write down the accounts you like and create an rss feed using nitter thats the only forward unless they drastically improve twitter or elon dies of aids
>>109098169Just don't click on clickbait bruhIt's literally that easy
>>109097325>social media>: forms of electronic communication (such as websites for social networking and microblogging) through which users create online communities to share information, ideas, personal messages, and other content (such as videos)4chan is a social media site. Just because you don't need to make an account doesn't matter.
>>109096009>normieYou're one to talk, normalfag.
>>109091913You need better cultural literacy.Pic related is the only part I would have read if that post appeared on my timeline, and I would have stopped right there because I would have known it was ragebait slop.You don't need to be very intelligent to see the patterns. You don't need fucking "community notes", and you don't need to see the poster is from "South Asia" because you already know all that.But obviously normalfags have so fucking retarded a mosquito could rival harvard graduates in comparison, that's why they want El*n and/or their gubmits to do the thinking for them.
>>109098169it's still good for artunfortunately, a lot of artists don't just post their art on other websites anymorea bunch post on pixiv, but that's mostly just jp artists
>>109092015Same, somehow we ended up with a situation where fucking 4chan is the only viable option for any conversation online. Think about how fucking stupid that is.
>>109098311>Elon astroturfs a lowlife indian to fill up space on your fyp no matter how many times you click uninterested >Every few weeks they completely rewrite the algorithm to whatever abomination grok suggests>"Yo just dont click on stuff and uhh keep blocking and muting even though the accounts you block can still creep into your fyp"No thing on this shithole works anymore i have been on twitter for over a decade and it was never THAT bad, other than some manipulation during covid and the 2020 election and even then people were rightfully mad at them for it, now elon does the same shit 100x on a weekly basis and no one cares and on top of that just rewrites the website whenever he feels like it, making being on twitter so unpleasant that you cant overlook his shenaningans I DONT WANT to see indian blue checked bots in every comment sectionI DONT WANT to see retarded tweets in Spanish, portugese, japanese filling my fyp so you can sell me your grok auto translation, i chose english when i signed up for a reasonI DONT WANT to move to xchat or whatever new chat they made few months agoI WANT to be able to use third party apps if i dont like your ai generated app but this ugly south african wont even give us thatI WANT to use a functioning search
>>109098345By definition, E-mail is social media. Not only is that absurd, it betrays a complete ignorance over how this tech works.
>>109098761
>>109098771Email is a protocol for transmitting communication data, not social media.
>>109091913X is designed to make money—if you don't like the product it isn't for you: don't buy it!
>>109098839fuck off Elon, kys already you dweeb
>>109098823>tfw gmail is now social mediajust fuck off
>>109098786kys zoomer
>>109091913I would slow down and get a DNA test. I already know damn well they arent mine, but dont get emotional. Gather more info then make a decision,
>>109098761>preocupandose por el Tuiter
>>109091913Works on my machine. Literally just keep doing what people have been saying with liking stuff you like, ignoring bait, and clicking not interested. My feed has been nothing but JP art up until last week when a single 3dpd slut slipped through. Hid that post and I haven't seen that shit again since.
