@chad Yes, it's harmless at first. But it won't stop there. I foresee further shitification of the Fediverse. And I would find that very unfortunate.
Thank you for the objective discussion.

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@chad You have a good point. However, saying "stay out of it, it's none of your business" on a federated platform where the aim is to hear and form opinions is in a class of its own. 😉

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@ditol @anatolegc In my opinion, this is the beginning of a slow dumbing down of the Fediverse. The Fediverse should be better than an unreflective continuation of dependency-creating platforms.

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@ditol That's definitely not what I said. That's what you're making of it, because you obviously didn't read and understand my text properly.@dansup @kdekooter

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@dansup Well, it's an opinion that I'm expressing here. No more, no less. I may have a different aesthetic sensibility, and I also think that trying to copy addictive platforms is not the right way to go. That's how one thing will lead to another in the future... that's my concern.

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!Thanks s lot @kdekooter
Your explanation hits the nail on the head. -
Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@dansup Why should we engage in the same nonsense as on the platforms we wish to leave behind?
@anatolegc @kdekooter -
Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@anatolegc Yes, in my opinion it does. It copies "trends" from addictive platforms. The Fediverse should strictly refuse to do this. What comes next? An algorithm?

Augmented Reality filters are coming to the fediverse, first with Loops and soon Pixelfed!@dansup Uninformed people all over the world may like to vote for fascists. Should we do it anyway?
Yes, it's a bad comparison. But in my opinion, it illustrates well why you shouldn't do everything that people like.
