Web 2 Algorithms don't care why you're engaging, just that you are. Rage, joy, disgust, it's rewarded all the same thanks to the ad-based model. People realize negativity travels faster than nuance and they exploit it for viral fame.

That's why the internet is rotting. 

On DeSo/Focus, real people, not algorithms, decide what gets seen and rewarded. People tend to reward value, not outrage. That means less doomscrolling, more meaningful content, and a healthier internet for all.
