Avoiding Angertainment
I really like Om's word angertainment to describe what gets popular on social media. This goes not just for the "big tech" platforms like Facebook, Twitter, or Reddit, but I see it happening on Mastodon as well. Not always merely from those accounts that are engagement farming, but from lots of accounts, some of which I used to call friends
