Use platforms and platform features that let you control your experience - Instagram’s ‘Following’ feed, YouTube’s Subscriptions page, Bluesky, Mastodon and RSS feeds

The idea behind mentioning specific YouTube and Instagram content is that you only view content you selected, not fed.
That is kind of a bitch since you need to find content for starters.
I love (/s) how YouTube went from “If you want to see new content from this guy subscribe” to “If you want to see new content from this guy subscribe and click the bell icon” to “If you want to see new content from this guy subscribe and click the other, bell icon that will notify you about ALL new content (until we find a reason to filter that as well)”
