Also old people. So many old people sending links to lies and bullshit.
Dude, my 95 year old grandmother is constantly scrolling and believing every shitty ai slop video!
I haven’t been on Facebook myself since like 2009. It is great if you can find yourself to delete apps like those.
Me, too. And I love that I have literally never seen anything on instagram. I love that about me.
I love that about you too xx
And now they’ll use it as an excuse to require an ID check to access social media
They’re literally the ones lobbying for IDs on the OS level. https://byteiota.com/metas-2b-lobbying-age-verification-laws-exposed/
I got my $8 from the FB Privacy Lawsuit yesterday.
Gonna spend it on booze.
In the days of Friendster and Myspace, I created a page on one of the other sites, whose name I can no longer remember. Then Facebook dominated and I just didn’t want to go through the effort again to create a new one.
Then Facebook started getting creepy. I remember for a while it had the social games (I only remember Cow Clicker by Ian Bogost, which was a parody of other social mutual-clicking games.
At other times there were tie-ins to other franchises. Coupons you could only get through your Facebook account. Since I wasn’t allowed to see anyone’s pages without an account of my own, I was never enticed to track my friends that way.
Eventually, Facebook went more and more full evil, and I just watched from afar.
