Facebook and twitter perhaps idk.

No.

Depends on how you use them I suppose.

I don't use twitter at all and Facebook not so much.

If the way to use them and not create a bubble is by not using them... They’re bubbles.

You still have to build that bubble though by the groups you join and what you follow?

I don't follow, block or share stuff.

the worst is when they team up with the edgy rogues.

Surely you mean Rouges yes? Lol

OK, but the question wasn't how does Zardnaar do things, it was whether those two social media sites create filter bubbles. And they create them to such a great extent that it got their CEOs hauled in front of Congress this week.

Twitter is absolutely a bubble, and waste of time combined.

I think there's a lot of value in Twitter, but it also relies on being able to ignore/withstand all the bad that comes along with it.

It's a technical pov though yes?

You would more or less have to build your own bubble?

Basically I read stuff I don't agree with and I think I've used block once in about 20 years.

It's something I noticed around 15 years ago. I knew a guy who claimed ABC I said XYZ and his counterargument was "but all my friends".

Nothing wrong with bubbles as such as long as you know you're in one.

Same can be said for much of the internet, and especially social media, but well thats another topic.

I deliberately avoided r/dndnext because it's aimed at 5E players specifically, but r/rpg might be worth a try if r/dnd isn't productive!

r/DnDNext is also where you'll find everyone who began play with 5e. I think it's a mistake to omit it. There's certainly a lot of very poorly considered opinions there, IMX, but it's also the freshest voices.

Mabye for kicks, if you find yourself in a mashochistic mood, put the same survey on sites dedicated to each of the various editions. I don't know which ones you'd want to hit for 3e and 4e but Dragonsfoot would be the place to get the old-school response. (though I'd recommend taking out things like advantage-disadvantage which only apply to one edition)
