To quote SNS’s comment “ I use social media as a survey…”
Similar to my approach to buying something from Amazon… look at the comments, see the overall rating and see what the pattern is and learn about the product.
If a opinion about a product is presented well with no huge bias or too singular a point I respect that but so often opinions are very narrow focused which I don’t find as helpful.
I get astonished at the negative mud slinging… it’s a hobby and as long as you enjoy your stuff that’s all that is really important.
