It is also quite ironic that nerds of the 21st century who built social media and a hyper-connected world are simultaneously repulsed by it.
Maybe that's also the solution to a question I've had for years. The ads I see on diverse social platforms are terrible, but if they are matched with algorithms that try to fit me in as an average person, then it makes sense that, as a huge nerd, they miss the mark.
Nowadays there aren't as many nerds in charge and it's concerning.
