I agree completely and I don't think you can.

Even people recording short form video are doing it. They're reading out their chat-gpt-psychosis induced fever dreams using scripts written by chatGPT.

The 7-part tweets that build to a slop crescendo are doing my head in.

The solution might be some combination of:

1. leave the social media sites where the slop is irredeemable. 2. unfollow everyone, reset your algorithm. 3. be aggressive about who you add back in. Make sure they're humans having high quality discussions. 4. be aggressive about who you block. Lower the bar on blocking - one and done. No chances, no wait-and-see. 5. move to smaller communities of real humans.

None of this has worked for me yet. I'm still swimming in a vast sea of slopity slop slop. Dead internet theory appears to be playing out in front of us.

edit: On threads I've been trying to use their `dear algo` feature pretty aggressively but it doesn't work very well. I've asked it to remove some types of comments and it seems to just add more of them.
