Can't wait for it to die and wither out. But I know they will retain a big pool of users on hostage like reddit or fb for a while.

Just my two cents here to mention that it's necessary to see this as a journey and a mindset, not a single-step or one-size-fits-all panacea.

If she's annoyed of advertisements creeping up, introduce her to adblockers and slowly make her get used to it. If she has shared concerns after seeing her friends or colleagues receive abusive comments on their social media accounts, comment on the dangers of oversharing one's private life and its potential consequences and tangible threats, like medical insurance companies abusing the info, and so on.

I prefer thick edges tbh. Thin bezel is nice until I tap the border by mistake.

Her being portrayed by the media or the memes as the "whiny girl seeking attention" is also worrying as well. It really distracts from the real issue and diminishes her work as well.

Honestly I miss that little metallic bastard with so many software shoving AI in our throats.
