Today I enabled a sweeping, indefinite, filter on a broad set of covid keywords. I've found that the information flow, even here on Mastodon, is counter-productive and often constructed to maximize engagement and spoke argument. And I just don't want to keep feeling the urge to argue with strangers on the internet about it. Minimizing and maximizing. I'll continue a varied information diet — both in-person & online — but I can't consume the social media version of this conversation for a while.
