I don’t know which I hate the most, but since I don’t use any Meta products (finally dropped Whatsapp too last March), or Twitter (which I dropped after they made BetterTweetDeck unusable even before Felon took over), or Reddit (got banned from r/worldnews, r/asmongold among others), or Snapchat (which went along with insta and Threads earlier), so basically the only social media I actively use is… Youtube? And I hate all the social media aspects in there that I cannot evade. So I guess Youtube’s social media AI slop is the one I tolerate the most.

I have a trauma-based personality disorder, which sometimes manifests itself in episodes of often uncontrollable bouts of verbal violence. I prefer to direct this to people on the internet (as opposed to actual people), as I don’t wish to be violent towards people I actually care about.

Yeah, that (the video hosting) is why I’m still using it. I started using Youtube in high school at the latest, so around 20 years ago (Youtube was launched in -05 so it couldn’t be earlier) and it’s the only one from those days I still use. But because everything tries to be a social media, and because of Alphabet’s rampant capitalism and the continued enshittification of everything it lies its grubby, fat, little fingers (kinda like DJT’s in a way), it has those disgusting aspects of social media forced on its users.
btw have you encountered the forced AI voice translation of videos yet? if there is one part of modern internet that I hate and absolutely despise the most, that causes more rashes than ads and more epileptic fits than all of the AI slop you can force down my throat, is when the internet is in my own language when it shouldn’t be and I have never asked it to be. if I’d want to watch shit in my own language I’d fucking search for shit in my own language, and there is a reason I never do (because it’s shit and cringe as fuck). if you’re gonna offer this service to the unwashed masses, at least let them op out. But no, it’s always on by default, and the video creator has to turn it off.
