"But muh family and fwiends use it!" or "I have an autistic cousin twice removed so I can't stop because it's the only thing he'll use!"

Any excuse to keep huffing that copium.

This is literally what these walled gardens depend on. Why are mocking people for it?

Just change cities, "but my friends live here."

Just leave the cult, "but the cult separated me from all my other friends."

Like, yeah. Cult's do this on purpose to keep people locked in.

I’m not on social media except Lemmy but… I thought Facebook was the “my relatives” one and Twitter was more keeping up with politicians, celebrities, and other public figures?
