I touched on this in my paper that discusses how the changing social media landscape will effect disaster management, but one of the biggest changes as we move forward is that we are not seeing the embracing of the changing landscape on a wide scale.
And what I mean by that is many websites still have a Twitter button or a place to put your Twitter link in your profile. You're damn lucky if you can find an icon set that has Bluesky, forget it if you want Threads or Mastodon. Want to add some links to your other profiles? Well half the built in options are dead now.
Social media sites are no longer integrated with the rest of the web, they are isolated pockets. It used to be each site had it's Thing but then they all decided they need to have All The Things, and that, I think, is when the break really started to happen. The internet stopped being "build your own experience" and became "take the experience we give you." The lack of anyone bothering to try and integrate things across the board shows that.
made this edit to show how god damn chaotic this channel is. took 3 hours. ENJOY!
As worried about tiktok propaganda as people are, THIS is the kind of propaganda i'm concerned about.

Markiplier during The Great Honey Conspiracy of 2024:
This might sound silly but hear me out
Headcanons for Rook, Vil, Malleus, and Idia taking MC for a spin on their brooms, telling MC to hold on tight but then getting surprised when MC iron grips their waist for dear life
Idia Shroud:
Idia almost let out a surprised scream but to save his dignity, his mouth clamped shut after a brief surprised yelp. The tips of his hair began to turn pink but you weren’t paying attention to that, too focused on keeping your grip on him solid as your face rested on his back to protect you from the whipping wind.
Malleus Draconia:
Malleus had thrown out the comment as a slight joke, not expecting you to take him so literally. He was far more used to being the source of fear, of repelling the people he was desperate to connect with. Instead, you find safety in him, holding him tight and staying closer than most people would dare to. He was already fond of you but this only seemed to endear you to him even more.
Rook Hunt:
Rook was already feeling the electricity in the air but to have you so shamelessly cling to him while on a romantic broom ride? You were going to permanently reset the rhythm of his heart at this rate! He openly swooned at your bold behavior and the broom follows suit, leading you on a less smooth than expected ride. Rook was always in control but he wanted to see your cute reactions when you thought he wasn’t, looking a little too pleased with himself when he finally landed.
Vil Schoenheit:
Vil will admit his first concern was his hair, as he hadn’t known he was going to take you on a ride like this, but he forgot all about it when he feels your grip. You squeezed around his waist tighter than any corset could, and you’re much warmer too, a good deterrent for the frigid air. He supposed he was the one to issue the order and he did love that you were such a good listener, ready to tease you thoroughly once you were safely on the ground (and his hair was back in proper order).
