Illustration for the Dutch Volkskrant newspaper, about online visibility through social media, 2007.

Back then, commercial social media companies still seemed well-intentioned. 😏

Stylized, isometric 3D illustration, showing characters sitting or standing on columns. The visibility and height of a column depends on the amount of different social media platforms printed on the column.

Deleted my LinkedIn account today. Feels like a relief. Exited Facebook, Twitter and Instagram many years ago already, which also made my life more comfortable.

Mastodon, Pixelfed and other Fediverse platforms are different. You're not being manipulated by algorithms to maximize engagement, you're not bombarded by ads, not misled by fake news and "AI" generated slop posts, not numbed by nervous short videos, and other forms of enshittification.

(alongside a photo of Rep. Ocasio-Cortez) “Lying to and screwing over working people so that they can steal from our health care and Social Security and veterans care to pay for tax cuts for the the wealthiest and bail outs for their crypto billionaire friends-there's a word for this: CORRUPTION."

Its kind of like The Good Place, in that everyone suddenly discovers its Hell.

And that demons built it.

Except, its not a comedy.
