I find it far less depressing, but have also realised that I am in an

echo chamber where the echoes are far stronger than even my own beliefs.

And so I am rarely using it as I don't trust the integrity of the information or opinions much more than I do the fascists on X, if that's what you mean.

I don't think it is the medium anymore. I think we are just in the age of stupid. Nobody wants to learn anything anymore - they just want to be right.

But what it has made me wonder is, if this doesn't trigger me like X and rather bores me, why on earth do the right wing trolls so enjoy rattling on so much on X (and on here). How do they not get as bored with it as I do?
