I guess I’m famous then.
Yeah. Not only can you ignore social media RIGHT NOW, it’s quite possible the only way we save any part of humanity is to convince enough people to do just that.
They said, on social media.
It has already been concluded on another post that Lemmy is antisocial media.
The more downvotes you have, the more you win
Very often it’s the case.
I think content-first social media like forums is far less bad than user-first like Twitter, Instagram, etc.

Uhh…
user-first
Wut?
On Twitter and Instagram you follow users. That’s user-first. You go there to see what so-and-so is saying, regardless of if it’s about cats or politics or their dinner plans.
Reddit, lemmy, and traditional web forums are content first. You go to the video games subforum to talk about games, and the sports forum to talk about sports. You often don’t even read the user names. You’re there for the content.
User-first stuff tends to incentivize bad behavior, I think. It becomes more about who’s saying it than what’s said.

I don’t know because I’ve never used them but can’t you follow hash tags?
I think mastodon does that but not twitter

I don’t necessarily think it inherently incentivizes bad behavior, it’s just a different media paradigm. Think of bands promoting albums and shows, celebrities doing celebrity things, charitable accounts, etc. I can see what you’re saying with extremist wackos spewing their bullshit though, but that becomes a bit of a blanket. Different people come online for different purposes, and your average rando typically just wants to see cat videos and family photos.
Ehh I think celebrities is probably an example of why user-first is bad. They’re given too much weight. If Chris Evans wants to talk about the MCU he can post in an MCU forum. If he wants to go off about Israel, well he’s not an authority and we shouldn’t facilitate that halo effect of “well he’s famous so he’s probably smart”.
A band can have their own website and participate in communities for their genre/location/etc.
I’m painting with a broad brush but I think organizing by content rather than user is better in most cases.
It’s not social media if your accounts aren’t doxxable in either direction. People who know me in person and know I’m on Lemmy wouldn’t be able to figure out which account is mine, and people who encounter my account on Lemmy wouldn’t be able to figure out who I am out in the real world.
I totally agree with everything you’re saying, Steve.
Close, but I spell my name with a “ph” so it’s Phteven, or Phteve for short.
Same for Instagram, Twitter, Mastodon, basically anywhere but Facebook.

If you’re famous enough won’t social media be after you then?
Honey you want to be rich not famous.
Good news, you already are! Just delete your social media accounts.

Wonder what I’m famous for?
Never too famous for lemmy
Why are the students sitting on the ground?
It doesn’t hurt elementary school aged children and having them move their chairs back and forth requires potentially chaotic transitions (kids get distracted, they hurt each other or themselves with the chairs, and there’s a bunch of noise that can distract other classrooms). The desks add a level of separation and distance that makes it hard to do some activities, like reading a story to the kids, and young kids really benefit from a transition between activities (we all do, but it’s more important the younger your learning group), which moving to a different part of the classroom creates.
Where I’m from, it’s also common to have kids circle up and do light calisthenics or stretching throughout the day to even out their energy levels, so this could be a stage immediately beforehand or afterwards.
Size-wise they look like high schoolers, but the classroom looks like it’s for young primary school students.
Lots of school desks have attached chairs so if you want to sit in a different configuration than a grid this is the easiest way
