people want content that is focused, accurate, curated, reliable, relevant, high quality, etc.

That is trivially disproven by observing that massive numbers of people use Twitter, Facebook, etc.

You can follow accounts which is a form of curation. I dropped all social media except this one because it was a time-sink but I did used to find following resulted in a useful feed on Instagram.

It's a fact so it can't be disproven. Your response is a fallacy of denial of the antecedent.

Adding "it's a fact" to claims does not make them impossible to disprove. You made a wild generalization (with the assumed meaning that ALL people want X) and the GP shared examples of people consuming "not X".

You can also see, on this same thread, people explicitly building experiments of uncurated content, which means they want it so much that they are willing to spend much effort building it themselves.

What would it take for you to consider that listing what you want does not necessarily imply a "fact" that all people want the same?
