The core issue with social media isnt the medium its the platforms and how they influence user behaviour.

On the fediverse there does exist some of the same issues as Instagram etc but instead of the platform working to keep the user in this cycle of negative feedback and behaviour the fediverse gives the user the tools and even encourages the user to use in a healthier manner. Examples being settings to toggle inf scroll, content warning, keyword filtering, chronological feed, no ads, no UI Dark Patterns.
