It's a selling point for me, I don't want some computer to try to figure out what to show me. I want to choose exactly what I see on my feed and how. If I'm "disengaging" or "completely obsessing" it hasn't been an issue for me.
I think we have extremely different use cases. I'm just glad there's one place where I can opt out of the computer trying to figure out what I want to look at. When that changes, I'll delete my account and go to Fckr or Blppr or whatever horseshit run by awful libertarian perverts comes next.
Boards of Canada arranged to play on a DEC PDP-1 from 1959. The PDP-1 doesn't have sound, but it does have front-panel light bulbs for debugging, so they rewired the light bulb lines into speakers to create 4 square wave channels
