I'm with you, but I'd probably switch entertaining for 'depressing'.

It's about 90% of the reason I've (largely) stopped using Facebook. Every time I looked at my feed I was being shown some kind of 'drama'. Or if not drama, then a post that poked my own personal beehive so much I'd have the overwhelming urge to step in and say "hang on, what?!" But of course stepping in only perpetuates the drama cycle I hate and I'd end up embroiled in something I didn't want to be a part of, and unhappier for it.

For my own sanity, not scrolling the feed, and only checking in to Facebook for the notifications once every few days seems to have helped immeasurably. And as sad as it is to admit, the FOMO dissipated pretty quickly.

I love the Internet, but the some of the 'social' aspects of it have seemed really ugly for the last few years.

It's not drama that people love, it's a group identity based on perceived injustice, gives one like a thrill of self righteousness. If it was drama, it wouldn't be all about the identity politics we'd be reading some gossip mag to find out who is sleeping with whose ex.

That, and money. If those women got their business hurt, it was because the "knitting community" was buying their stuff somewhere else.
