Is SW getting any better?

I ask the question because when Experience Project closed down I found similarworlds.com. relatetothat.com was an absolute abortion. SW can't compare to EP. But could be getting a little better. I need to know other people's thoughts. That's why I asked the question...

@helenS - sorry I'm replying somewhere else, Sandwitch seems to have blocked me🤷.

I remember that. You could type "the a" or "and a" in, and you could get a way fuller feed.

I REALLY don't get the way it is now . Is it some torturous experiment to try and see how much we'll put up with ?
Why make a feed WORSE?

It's truly making the experience here less fun . ....and it's forcibly MAKING cliques . If we only see the same small group of people, doesn't that push particular users together ?
And keep us away from potentially meeting others ?

@OogieBoogie It's a social conditioning experiment. Needless to say that this place has caused the mental decline of many users here and has reopened the wounds and trauma that they already had. A few have healed but this usually happens when the person has had an awakening or leaves the site for a while or permanently . They simply cannot handle what the machine has forced upon them. Social media can be good and bad, it just depends on how you utilize it in your daily lives. However some just abuse it because they themselves have been abused. The experiment itself becomes the reality that many create it to be. It becomes a monster. It becomes something too big for some to handle. It's just like the Twilight Zone. Its far more real than you think it is. 🙂

@Zonuss oh I agree on this completely !
One decides what one chooses to reply to , what one posts, and what one chooses to say.

True we can't control everyone, but we can control ourselves ....and it's very easy to 'walk away'.

Ive watched this place change so much over the years. Some for the good, some for the bad.
I do sometimes feel it is still an experiment .

And you're right ...it does become some sort of reality ....for some, too much of a reality .

It seems it's in our nature to prefer to change our environment than ourselves .🤷
