In a digital world where many people use social media and consume a lot of content online, it may have an impact on our attitudes and behaviours. This paper explores attitudes surrounding recommender systems, filter bubbles and the perceived impact of these topics. It explores the users’ personal experience of social media and their thoughts about their situation, as well as the perceived potential positives and negatives of recommender systems and how people are being affected by them today, from a perspective of having used social media for an extended period of time, possibly seeing or experiencing the change which have been brought on with a changing social media environment with implemented recommended systems affecting the online viewed content.
