April fools day was yesterday. But for some reason, today, April 2nd, every single article in my news feed is some nonsense bullshit that the writer thinks is just so damn hilarious. I used to love April fools, it was funny when my favorite website would suddenly become a ABBA fan site for a day, only on the Home Screen, though, and everything else was normal.
I’m tired of the endless “GOTCHA!” articles, especially AFTER April fools. Can they not pull those articles the next day? Stick them in an archive? WHY IN MY NEES FEED?!

A lot of the fun internet has been overrun by trolls, withered away as users migrated to centralised platforms like Reddit and discord, or were gutted by VC so the April fools offerings are not what they were.

It stopped being funny now that disinformation bots became a thing.

An ever increasing amount of real stories sounding like they're made up for April Fool's doesn't help.

April Fools day can still be fun when it's done in a mindful and fun way and done responsibly. Sadly, people have forgot that and now it's am excuse to just post awful things that do more long term damage than be fun and entertaining.
The massive spread of misinformation has not done this any favors either.

So there's no Howard the Duck movie with Seth Green?
