If an adult'd told me to do something I'd do the opposite.

You wouldn't have a chance, because if the folks at twitter and tumblr were doing their jobs, you'd get hit with a banhammer for harassment.

That's a big if.

People have known about this problem of social media since the 1980s, so the failure of those companies to do squat about their harassment problem is a combination of basic design incompetence and greed because drama creates clicks creates revenue.

The question is whether those platforms will face the same bursting bubble as their digital "news" cousins.

It's fundamentally a question of the ethos of Silicon Valley / the tech industry, which is essentially about (1) finding solutions and trying to match them to problems and (2) trying to solve every problem in the quickest, easiest, simplest way possible.

The most successful companies are usually the ones that don't actually try to solve the hard problems in a space, and just overpower them with tech. So, for instance, the successful social media companies are broadly the ones that looked at the hard problem of "How do we structure a social network so that we can encourage interaction while also being safe and non-toxic" and just did not even bother to try to solve it.

I thought you meant parents.

It'd take a lot of manpower -> expensive, though.
