>we expect to be misled for the purpose of entertainment, and rightly decry illusion in what is presented to us as documentation

Believe in unbiased documentation at your peril. When you desire a peek behind the curtain into random people's lives you are going to get taken for a ride everytime. That makes scrolling heavy on entertainment value and all users know it.

Social media algorithm scores are just a way for us to outsource easy reputation management, that puts a lot of hops in between you and authenticity and can't really be called a "shared reality" with a straight face. Perhaps now something better can come along that doesn't favor Image marksmen.
