I follow too many accounts. I think it's over 1500.
It's gotten to the point that my home timeline is full of irrelevant stuff I'm not interested in.

How do I fix this? 🤔

That kinda happened with me at one point. I ultimately decided to go through a few of the posts and see which ones I just scroll past. As in, what is my brain just filtering out.

I also looked for posts that interested me, but not necessarily positively. Certain people posted too much "doomsaying takes" for me (political, tech, or otherwise).

Dunno if this'll help, but my feed is more manageable after unfollowing such content. I can manually check account posts if I feel like it.

Tous ces marchands de verrous numériques veulent nous enchaîner, que nous soyons des clients captifs même pour utiliser du matériel basique et censé être autonome comme un vélo.
Plus que jamais, nous avons besoin de l'esprit d'autonomie qui a nourri le logiciel libre, dans tous les domaines.
Ça dépasse amplement nos lubies d'informaticiens autistes qui veulent se sentir supérieurs, pour reprendre xkcd.

Google updated its public AI principles page,
removing a section titled “applications we will not pursue,” which contained a promise not to use AI for weapons or surveillance.

When asked, Google’s referenced a new blog post stating they believe in creating AI that protects people, promotes global growth, and supports national security.

Given their massive investment in AI, cutting off potential revenue streams when the competition isn’t just seems unwise.

it’s also a choice to have principled principles rather than just chasing revenue.
