you still custimise your feed to large extent by following stuff.
I’m not that familiar with the latest versions of the three I listed, but I’ve seen quite a few complaints on Reddit recently who seems to be pushing irrelevant content just for rage bait.
Also the things you mentioned about tracking are there on Twitter too:
Twitter’s privacy policy states they use the information collected to: “improve and personalise our products and services so that you have a better experience on Twitter, including by showing you more relevant content and ads, suggesting people and topics to follow, enabling and helping you discover affiliates, third-party apps, and services.”
It’s important to note that opting out of Twitter’s interest-based ads doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t see targeted advertising. For example, you may still see ads which are based on information such as what you Tweet, who you follow and the links you click on Twitter.
Often while browsing, if Twitter recognises that you’re interacting with something repeatedly, they will offer for you to follow that particular topic – which can be anything from celebrities to sports teams.
except the short form video type one, as you rely entirely on an algorithm.
Facebook, Twitter, even Reddit nowadays promote a certain type of content (reaction inducing), so unfortunately it’s not only shorts
To be fair, alt-right content is present in all types of medias: short videos, but also tweets, articles, long videos, essays, etc.
The fake Facebook groups created by Russia to antagonize two local groups did not need shorts videos to succeed: https://www.npr.org/2017/11/01/561427876/how-russia-used-facebook-to-organize-two-sets-of-protesters
If you look at Twitter nowadays, the “For you” is going to be more or less what you listed above
It’s always interesting to see how less active this one is compared to the ones on Jlai.lu.
