“MetaGoneMad” social media devolved into chaos. Selfies got replaced with close-up nostril shots. The “like” button exploded into a “passive-aggressive comment” button. Algorithm recommended enemies, not friends. Hashtags turned into full-blown novels. People craved simplicity, but MetaGoneMad embraced absurdity. Society sighed and yearned for a simpler era of actual conversations.

  • fyi, you posted that like 4 times in a row, the site is slow and sluggish, so it likely counted every click as a new post.

    I liked the Tupac reference from Mayor Johnson.

    “Transition is difficult for everyone,” Johnson said. “But as has already been articulated, I don’t know how many times you’re allowed to quote Tupac (Shakur) in a press conference, but ‘You can’t always go by the things that you hear.’ Right?_ ‘Real eyes…realize…real lies.’_ That’s also Tupac Shakur.”


  • No one wants to talk about the thousands of extra bots that reddit released during the blackout and afterwards to keep up with the illusion. A whole lot of sub users on reddit are engaging with bots. In fact, some gullible people think r/place is run by users, and not the thousands of bots run by different subs, as well as reddit admins.
