Today I posted a picture of a stamp with an animal in it and they said the picture contained nudity and made me take it down, but I reported a photo of a guy with a fully visible swastika tattoo and they said that’s fine.
I’d like to start a Lemmy community with photos of stuff that they refuse to remove called FacebookSaysItsFine.
I swear to God, I have zero idea what version you all use of Facebook. It’s really not that bad unless your friends are assholes.
I deleted my Facebook in 2011. That’s right, 12 years ago. It was bad then, I can’t even imagine what a pile of shit it is now. It’s all about perspective. You probably can’t remember a time before Facebook existed, but I do.
Oh man, calling someone young on the internet to further your argument, you are old lol. I also used Facebook back in 2011, it also wasn’t bad if your friends weren’t assholes. I don’t know what the hell you people are doing on Facebook either.
I’m like early 40s and a systems engineer for a company who builds oss software. I’m not og neckbeard, but I had a 2400 baud modem. I thought I had plenty of perspective 🤷♂️.
You’re just a baby!
The wild stories and backgrounds you people invent when people disagree.
My first modem was 2400 baud on prodigy and I was using irc+ usenet well before torrents were a thing. I recall the pre aol internet, phpbbs, Internet forums, and my steam account ends in an @hotmail.com. I was on og face book when it was college only. I think my perspective and recollection is just fine.
15 years ago I had a Facebook account for about a month. My brother became a father over the weekend and I sent him a congrats message. Come in Monday and my coworker knew about it. “Yeah I am deleting this shit right fucking now”.
I mean, Facebook is how I found out that one guy who I was very friendly with was actually a supporter of the BNP.
I don’t use Facebook, but it introduced a friend of mine to a neo nazi group. Probably from a shared interest in wwii history, but that’s all it takes for the algorithm to do its thing. He rejected it so we’re clear.
yeah, the pandemic kind of brought how much of an asshole everyone around me truly was… and now I don’t use meta.
