Oof glad I left it a while ago. And I'm definitely not missing it. Masto is way nicer. 😊 I still use Insta though... But never see that much bad stuff on there.
Sorry they're not handling the bad stuff correctly. 😔

@PixysFitJourney My account was hacked on insta, and they didn't do anything to help ne reclaim it. It's been deleted now. Maybe I'd still be there if I wasn't just talking to a bot.

The only reason I'm still on Facebook is to keep in touch with certain people.

@Monsterlady
Ow that sucks! 😔 Yeah these days it's all bots and Ai and it doesn't make things loads better...
I had some friends on FB but they never really replied to my posts since my divorce. Guess my ex claimed them. So I just left... It became too toxic for me.
Glad to be here and on WP still. 😊
I hope FB will do something good with your complaints.

@PixysFitJourney I highly doubt they will. I've reported several of them in the past week.

@Monsterlady
That's bad! But yeah, it's all about the money and I guess those bad things bring them money... 😔 Still, I do miss the old social media bits where hate and all that was dealt with correctly.

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney Me too and when people shared their food and pets more than the current state of the world.

Outrageous that they could make money from hatred and spam.

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Yeah, look at my cute dog! Look at my delicious meal. Ow I got new shoes... So much better than what they share these days...

It's really terrible they get funded by leaving hatred and spam on their servers... 😔

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney Indeed it is, I sometimes mute people who share too much political crap. If I want to see that I'll go look at the news!

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Yeah, we get enough politics from the news. I also look for fun shares, pets, nature, fitness, gaming, music... Things that are entertaining in a positive way. 😊 So I totally get it.

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney I use social media to laugh and swoon not get angry over some dumpster of politics! It's a waste of time.

This ought to describe us, although for me it's cats.

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
👍🏻 Exactly. Cat pictures can be nice too. But I'm a dog gall 😉 what ever makes us happy, right? 😊

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney Exactly. I don't mind dogs, some breeds I like as long as they behave themselves. I don't like it when they jump on me 🐶😆

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Owww Arwen sometimes jumps... But only if she enjoys your cuddles and she's begging you for more. 😊 She knows she shouldn't but even at ten, she's still very enthusiastic when it comes to cuddles. 🐾

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney Dogs can be quite affectionate to those that give it to them. 🐶

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Definitely! 😁 Though Arwen is special 😂 she never really wants to cuddle me 😔 but all other people, yeah! I've been sad about that but I've come to accept it. She loves me in her own way and she's always there for me. So I'm just madly loving her, quirky things and all... 😊

@PixysFitJourney Ah a brown lab, my friend used to have one

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Yeah. While I love all labs, a brown boy made me fall in love with the breed (he was from a co-worker and the sweetest boy, named Ollie). Since meeting him, I've been madly in love with brown labs. Arwen is my second one. First one was Chance, who stayed with my first long time ex. My other ex and I had two labs, but I got to keep Arwen as she was most connected with me. 😊

@PixysFitJourney Arwen, great name. As a LOTR fan I approve.

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Haha yeah!! Arwen was a beautiful brown haired elf and I thought it was a beautiful name for my loyal friend when I first got her. Well, when we got her as I was engaged back then...
But Arwen has been longer with me than she'd been with my ex now. And she always favored me (which rubbed my ex wrong as well 😔). So I got to keep her when I was kicked out of the house.... Been so very grateful for Arwen as she saved me 💜

Monsterlady, 8 months ago

@PixysFitJourney You know what they say: pets have the power to heal that other humans can't replicate, and they won't break your heart either. Glad it worked out with Arwen despite the circumstances. 😃

PixysFitJourney, 8 months ago

@Monsterlady
Totally true! 😁 She accepted me the way I was. She stayed with me when I was at my worst... And now I'm doing better, I'm giving her all I can. 😊
Thank you. 🐾 I'm very glad as well... Though five years ago I could not have imagined ever feeling like this again. 😊

@Monsterlady IG is their another joke. I reported a comment that featured the N-word and other crap.

Their reaction was the "We found that this post doesn't go against our Community Guidelines on harassment or bullying".

Makes me wonder who wrote the said community guidelines, the KKK?

Monsterlady, 8 months ago (edited 8 months ago)

@apzpins Oh yeah I had a similar problem on there before I left the app where I reported a comment with the R-word and got the same response FFs.

It's clear robots do not recognize bullying. Some of my friends got banned for simply posting an opinion that wasn't hateful in any way at all.
