Well: on the one hand I'm sorry, but on the other I'm very pleased this post exists. Unfollowing America is an absolute necessity (I feel for my friend who is now reporting on America for the Guardian in arguably the worst of all possible years to that to date), and the reminder that it's not your fault/my fault/any of our fault that this technology does what it is designed to do is crucial. Dammit, now I've read something you wrote instead of focusing on my work. I'll see if I can write a response post and we can never accomplish anything ever again.
Thank you for distracting me with this post today. I procrastinated by writing a few notes of my own on a similar subject. Perhaps I will never get to my actual tasks today, haha! https://www.tederick.com/2024/02/notifications-are-bad-and-dumb-and-you-should-stop-using-them-ok/

I shall stop being distracted by the ability to discuss this in comment form with you, shortly!
