We're all in an echo chamber

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

Don’t forget – the YouTube and Facebook is an echo chamber.  When you look something up or watch something, the algorithm thinks that’s what you like and will keep feeding you more like that.  

This does not make the world more and more like that.  Only what you see.  It’s validation of what you think you know.

Just remember that.

Search for something different.  Watch something different. 

Don’t stay in the echo chamber.

Another good thing to do is click mark posts “show less” or “not interested in this”.

This is hidden in a “…” menu but you can tune the algorithm.

Maybe less extreme content. Or fewer distracting cat videos.

I have this Facebook friend that keeps feeding me motocross pics and Facebook keeps sending me more motocross stuff. 🤣
