Comment on Hidden by default
chr@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoYeah, I don’t know what they were thinking when Twitter decided to make likes public by default and even go so far as to show your likes on your followers’ feeds. Seemed creepy and parasocial and is one of the factors that drove me away from Twitter, so this is a good change.

I like the ideology of having private likes, the problem is you need to trust the platform in order to have a system like that, back when Lakes were private there was trust in the platform nowadays there’s zero trust in the platform, it wouldn’t surprise me if they’re going to use this to fake engagement numbers for their userbase
