wackyteen 04/24/24 6:16:25 AM #8:	I mean, it's also Facebook. It's full of ragebait bots, boomers and right-wing zoomers. While not as bad as Xitter, Facebook can be pretty bad.

MisterPengy 04/24/24 12:02:34 PM #17:	Facebook algorithm is garbage. Even worse than YouTube's, if that can be believed. I watched one reel where they were cooking a steak. I expected, I dunno, fucking SOMETHING. But it was literally like a 15 second clip where they put a steak down, and then boom, mediocre steak. Now everytime I go on Facebook it's like "HEY BUDDY, you liked that steak video huh? That's what you wanna watch today? You wanna see some random fuckwad make a mediocre steak? Well here you go, weirdo." --- Bosses are immune to the eat command so it won't be possible to end the final boss fight of the game by eating it. -VeghEsther <cite>MisterPengy posted [p:980070442] in Is it my c...

BucketCat 04/24/24 12:16:02 PM #20:	yes and no. I don't see posts that are blatantly anti-lgbtq, but I do see tons of comments on random posts that will bring up lgbtq stuff. like, in a guitar group I'm in, people were posting their guitars. it's a vintage group so good luck seeing pics that aren't "guitar hanging on wall" "guitar in open case" "guitar leaning against amp" and yet, somehow, the comments devolved into weird anti-lgbtq rants, anti-michelle obama for some reason (like wtf, her and barrack are hardly in the public sphere anymore, they're like legacy politicians or something), and also pro-OJ simpson for some even weirder reason..
