          And if you’ve never heard music before you’d probably think Baby Shark was an amazing song; your lack of awareness doesn’t make something quality or appropriate

            And your awareness of something doesn’t make it poor quality or inappropriate, if you often think with such a self centered mindset, you’re liable to drive yourself crazy on a place that cares as little as the internet long before you convince it to change

        It will, because people will become tired of scrolling through meters of stuff they have already seen. It will start by people downvoting things they have seen multiple times, then they will try to block users doing it and if it doesn’t help the complaining will start.
