America

I have a theory that meta / instagram algorithm is now creating VERY hard bubbles of whichever side you’re on in the US political divide. 

I don’t normally post political things there, but when I post ONE story (about Rumeysa Ozturk) among other normal cute photos, not one of my friends from the other side saw any of my stories. And I’d say they’re pretty close friends who usually see my stories. 

So does that mean the algorithm is strongly suggesting friends stories and content that only AGREE with their views? 

Digital bubbles and confirmation bias is REAL. 

How can algorithms be made to combat this problem while also displaying interesting relevant content to users?

Playing “The SIMS Pets” except this feels real.

I talk about confirmation bias often... Hopefully that's not an intentional segregation of the algo... Who knows...

I like it here because I've never had that issue (at least I don't think)

Not happening too heavily here. At least not yet…. But we hope it won’t in the future either
