Nothing, cause I’d rather choose what to ignore on the fly rather than creating the same bubble I get stuck in on every other social media platform.

Well, thats one positive anecdote.

Here’s some negatives:

Everyone I know with a Samsung appliance has had a poor experience with it.

Why are they still popular? Why are people still buying them? Every product review gives major faults too (like catching fire!) and people are like “8/10 because I managed to put it out before by house burnt down”.

Meanwhile other brands are crucified for the finish song being too loud, or the door feeling plastic, or some other inane reasoning.

I love how Whirlpool has stuck to it’s guns with regards to staying text only.

It survived a world of phpbb, avatars, and animated GIFS and is now surviving a world of social media and “engagement”. It’s like Usenet with moderation and no binaries.

Helps that it’s fast as blazes too.

So why aren’t other governments doing something similar?

Our government (Australia) basically told the last couple of brands that manufactured locally to piss off. So they did. So now we have literally zero local manufacturers.
