Top Ten Toxic Social Media Websites.
I don't know how many times this has been brought here, but I've recently seen something that makes me feel like it should be brought up again.

Twitter
X (formerly known as Twitter) is an online news and social networking service where users post and interact with messages, also known as "tweets," limited to 280 characters. The platform was rebranded to X by Elon Musk in July 2023, following his acquisition of Twitter in October 2022.... read more
I've seen people call this site a toxic cesspit, that is so horrid that they refuse to even touch it.
Nowadays it's worse. Elon Musk rebranded it as X. It's a total waste of time & money. Now you can't even follow more than 30 people per day nor can you post more than 30 times per day. And you can't view more than 400 posts unless you're verified, which you have to pay for to happen. Elon Musk once said the rate limits are temporary, but he lied. He also said he tried to make it better, but nope, he made it worse. He made bullying more common. He's the king of misinformation. I even quit using it because of that. He's better off with SpaceX instead of social media (which he thankfully admitted he doesn't understand).

YouTube is a platform that has built itself up on the creative minds that see fit to contribute to this brand. It's also the place where people can act as if the world shines out of their ass, and treat the people they work with like absolute dog crap.
-
Tumblr
Tumblr is a microblogging and social networking website founded by David Karp in 2007. It was later acquired by Yahoo! in 2013, then by Verizon Communications through its subsidiary Oath Inc., and eventually sold to Automattic in 2019.

I have no experience with Tumblr, but I've been told that it is exceptionally toxic.

My brother once tried it and met a couple of decent people. Other than that, he also met a few people jerking off in front of the camera.

On Tiktok, you can find some pretty kindhearted and talented people. You can also find some of the most toxic people on the internet.
TikTok isn't toxic, the platform is toxic to its creators/users, we are in the Golden Age of Social Media, platforms & their policies are hostile/against their creators/users, truth speakers & conspiracy theorists are blacklisted on platforms since the platforms implemented bots that are against the first amendment
-

Good place to share your creative mind with the online world. Sadly, some of that talent is wasted on making fanart for serial killers.
