Leftist Infighting

This is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" community where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Heated arguments are OK but pointless hostility is not (see instance rule 3).

I don't see how it can become less addictive. The algorithm feeds you content based on the things you like and are interested in, that's the reason it's addicting. Unless they change the algorithm to give you content you actively dislike (which doesn't make sense) it simply can't become less addicting.
There needs to be a complete paradigm shift in social media for it to be healthy.
That’s what I mean, a complete overhaul of the algorithms.
It could be that no or very little algorithms is the answer. Kind of like what lemmy does for sorting posts and comments.
"Sort posts in reverse chronological order" and "Sort posts by most recently commented on" are algorithms, but not the kind that will try to trap you in an endless loop of consooming content.
