destroy site algorithms, stop liking stuff, use like as a dislike make it as hard as possible for the technofeudalists to extract data from you

I enjoyed reading this post. How can I read more of your writing?

>>3
I write under the influence exclusively on library computers, I’m almost never online otherwise.

>>4 This sentence has simply made me want to read the little writing that you do produce even more. Even if not directly from yourself, are there similar figures / spaces you could perhaps direct me towards?

>>2
The best move is not to play and this saying applies to the "social media" "platforms" thousandfold. Not using those malicious websites at all is the best way to mitigate their malice. They will do absolutely anything to abuse you, so your only way out is to leave them completely. Not even using any frontends or proxies, just not at all at any point in time. You give them a finger, they eat your hand - it's this kind of deal. If you're actually concerned about technofeudalists extracting data from you, the best thing to do would be to get clean from the drug in first place.

What kind of drug? I didn’t get you

obtuse literalism or dearth of reading comprehension. the world may never know.

The latter it seems

I’ll keep posting now and then, or launch a blog one day. I’ve often noticed that people are into what I write. Based on the posts above, here’s a suggestion: https://archive.ph/anonymousplanet.org/

>>10
I didn't mean to be so obtuse, akstually, thus it might be helpful to explain my point. I thought comparing "social media" to a drug would help get my point across, because as with drugs, you can't get clean from the drug just 70%, or 90%, you have to stop taking them entirely if you want to better your addiction. As such you can't just use social media only 2%, or 10%, because those sites are so inherently malicious that there is no way to use them without getting abused, as it would be with a drug addiction.

>>13
I forgot one thing: In comparing social media with drug addiction, I'm not comparing addictions. I mean social media is always harmful, no matter if you're addicted to it or not. This was just a comparison.
