What are we even doing anymore with moderation? I reset my ad preferences on instagram and immediately got a flood of EXTREMELY graphic pornographic ads. Some were even violent. I reported 8 of them and this was the response from Meta for EVERY ONE. Literally one was a completely naked woman crying and being belted in the face.
Mind you, this is from resetting my ad preferences so I'd see completely irrelevant content to my app activity. Is this the stuff new insta users see?? Instagram

You should also flush your followers and following. If you follow any weirdos, you’ll see all of their preferences, too. You cannot disable this, the only way to stop it is to remove those followers and following.

I think this kind of algorithmic content packed into endless scrolling should be illegal, or at least switched off by default. It causes mental distress and is highly addictive.

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

I am an experienced hire. My case might just take you by surprise. I joined EY GDS 10 months back at 40% hike (leaving PwC) and now Deloitte (DIJV) is offering me 2 level up designation at Manager level with another 40% hike. This has effectively doubled my salary in the last one year bt still I am confused to switch or not considering the amazing bonuses GDS payed off today. Please suggest.
