I hated Nosedive, by the way, but that's because I'm freaked out by the future it depicts...which I fear may be coming true. I'll grudgingly admit it's well done.
I enjoyed S3E1, but keep in mind that I’ve been trying to solve social media for work for years. I had a good grasp of Facebook for a spell, managed to get the KFTC site past 1/2 M likes on grist alone. We never did a paid promo. But we took a big hit when fb shifted some stuff up (prolly excised our Russian bots) and are feeling shifts following net neutrality, sliding us under .5M now, where we struggle to get back up. I’ve yet to solve Twitter & use Instagram only for my personal amusement, seldom #ing there. Not trying to grow my instagram, despite my fatass web ego (my Man at Arms cast mates quickly put me in my place there - they’re all much more skilled at getting likes than me) although I notice anything martial that i post there does well and I’m inclined to post more of that. Same for my personal fb. I can’t break the typecast at this point - heck, I’ve worked hard to attain that on soc media. I purged my LinkedIn cutting out well over 1k of peeps who i didn’t know for real. My personal fb has become too closely tied to my job to be completely candid; I keep my professional mask on there for the most part, whatever the heck that is.
WOAH - WAS THAT AN EARTHQUAKE?!?
But I digress. Nosedive = clever observation and unsettling too, dystopic sci fi to my liking. So far, the only Ep I didn’t enjoy was #1. The rest I’ve all liked. Good show. I need an Ep with swords tho - don’t spoil it for me.
