This is how we fix social media
The prophecies tell of a group of a few hundred people with the power to stop this. That, when the time is right, they'll return from their months of vacation to actually do their fucking job.
It always surprises me when I see this. I mean, there are plenty of ways to improve this on the product side discussed elsewhere in the thread. But also why are so many people just posting without glancing at the embeds that are clearly shown to you ahead of time?
