Originally the criticism was that you see the highlights of other people's lives and then compare that to your everyday life and that's depressing.

Nowadays I think it's all the politics being injected everywhere. Me? I look for cars and car parts on groups. That's about it.

Literally all I see are ads, I guess you need friends for it to be addictive or something...

I really wish my city would get off its collective ass and stop using marketplace.

All I see if I scroll is AI slop. Hundred different variations of one theme or another in different groups or pages I've never subscribed to.

I go straight to Marketplace or whatever group I need and that's it these days.

Right? AI-generated pictures of Scarlett Johansen as a flight attendant praising Jesus, or an African kid making sculptures of Jesus out of trash. And all the comments just being 'Amen' spam. Bots on top of bots. It's just fucking dystopian.

Those sound even worse than the AI gen car memes I get lol
