Please do not give me shit for using Facebook. It's how I keep in touch with relatives, most of whom live abroad, and my brother, who is has ASD prefers to communicate with me that way.

I would rather not use it, but I would prefer keeping in touch with my brother.

That said, I would not let AI keep in touch with my brother for me.

Considering the quality of posts from the majority of people on FB, AI posts will make your feed much better.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago

My feed is highly curated so that I only see a handful of people I know in person who post things I care about and a couple of groups involving cartoonists I like and one about a TV show I like, all of which are 100% argument and drama-free. It makes it a far less unpleasant experience.

My feed is highly curated

A few years ago I did this, too. By deleting my facebook account. Best curation of it I've ever achieved.

How do you even curate a fb feed. When I tried that I got an algorithm that shoved "recommended" posts down my throat that got worse the further down I scrolled. Not to mention looking for posts older than a day is a pain because they're not chronological. AND the cherry on top is when you finally reach the place where that post might be and the page just decides to reload. Awful, awful user experience.

Yeah, suggestions killed FB, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Reddit for me. You can't even have your own feed anymore.

I use a Firefox addon called "FB Purity". It blocks all sponsored and recommended posts. You can even configure it to hide posts like "Your friend commented on this" which would also put random public posts on your page. My main page is very clean and takes 10 seconds to scroll down every few days to see the most recent pet photos or any important news from my family.

Yes, lately I've been getting a ton of local police department posts from cities on the other side of the country and I'm a firm ACAB person.

Like a museum?

Just cut out the people and let me live in a fictional world where other "people" aren't mostly idiots. Plug me into the matrix already. Let's get it over with!
