Have you peeked your head into IG recently? I spend a lot of time there, some of the content and specially the comments sections are just absolutely unhinged. More than any other platform I've been on too, it's a relatively new thing it started happening about 2 years ago. It's actually a good time, reminds me of the internet circa 2008.
IG comments are absolutely hilarious
Right? I cannot believe how consistently toxic ig comments are, even on the most unsuspecting videos. I'm surprised this isn't talked about more often. The constant sexism is just jading. Negative comments skyrocket to the top of the comment section because they get the most replies, and there is no down voting functionality. But I think it's gotten slightly better recently? I wonder if the limiting of political content has anything to do with it. Maybe ig is actually trying to improve their platform.
Woah, even worse than the shitfest that is YouTube comments?
Yuuup lol
