Perhaps a few bands or local companies that someone liked.\n\nSince I was responding to this by being more engaged with the memes and political groups it was feeing me, then it obviously continued by feeding me more of that. I was spending too much time talking to people about political topics, especially as the recent election season progressed. \n\nI don't really like short form video and that never was an issue with time management for me. I prefer content that is at least 10-15 mins, so most of the video I watch is from YT.\n\nDuring the last 5 or 6 weeks I tried to stay connected with most of my friends through Instagram instead of FB. This worked to a limited degree I guess. IG really isn't good for conversation like FB is. So many short videos and mini powerpoint presentation things, so that only felt worth spending a small amount of time on.","farcaster":"https://farcaster.xyz/icetoad/0x1e33177d59b8a1891daa71fd23c98d8d3e96afbd","firefly":"https://firefly.social/post/farcaster/0x1e33177d59b8a1891daa71fd23c98d8d3e96afbd","note":"author hasn't signed the social smart contract; the cast may be restricted on farcaster.xyz"}
