I did a count in my posts archive. Facebook is mentioned 19.8 million times, Twitter 30.9 million times (this probably includes double counting the links, but even without that it's still staggering number considering the forum only has 60 million posts in total and I haven't included posts that were deleted in the first 10 years.
(counting the Facebook and Twitter posts took a lot longer than I expected, hence my late reply)

Wow. I didn't expect such numbers and I didn't also expect you count them (although I know that you have the data at hand).

It seems like fighting bots doing mindless tasks.

And it's even allowed, so although useless, reporting is futile.

I see it different, sorry.
I see it like cleaning the dust in the house, although knowing that more will come in.
I see it like cleaning the leaves, although knowing that, especially in the autumn, there will be the same mess again.
Making your surroundings more pleasant or at least bearable (not necessarily/not only for yourself) is not not really futile.
Should I start a career in poetry or such?

So yes, ignoring can help your mental health, but it can be done only per-user (maybe you can even make yourself a script based on certain "rules"). Reporting keep the forum bearable. And we already have this. Overall, as I said, most probably nothing will change.
