I don’t really use facebook anymore so couldn’t care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.

    Other than YouTube, I’m basically off all of these centralized social media platforms and it feels great.

    I do need to occasionally use Facebook for market place and messenger for contacting business.

    Basically every business operates over messenger where I live.

      Yes same for me, whatsapp is pretty much the only “genuine” communication channel. I only keep a presence on facebook since I have to move countries frequently for work, and the “expats in $city” groups are quite helpful to find people, and then move the discussions off-platform :-)

      I’m trying to encourage people to move to peertube. Not much content there, but i’ll reward what intersting content I find. You should too

        Not really, I am in a third would country and if you call the landline, you still have to pay by the minute. Most businesses do not even have a landline to contact. Typically they give a viber number or messenger number.

        Even when I needed to get a rabies shot, my wife found a place on facebook. They did not even have a website of their own. Sadly that is how the internet works where I live.
