Maybe if they focused on the root of the problems with Social Media instead of banning it from children, they could make the world a better place for everyone.
Endless scrolling and their recommendation algorithms keep people on their platforms for far longer than otherwise intended. They could start with forcing these companies to have chronological posts with a fixed number of posts per page to give users a natural break point for when to stop.
Not just that, but also holding social media owners accountable for hosting fascist content, and arresting them, no matter how rich they are.
I cannot get behind the hosting part, it is too abusable. If that was changed for promoting, I could support that.
Y'know what, fair point.
