Do you have one and do you think Facebook groups are a viable Reddit alternative? I hear they’re pretty popular.
Yes, but I don’t post anything. I use FB to “heart” family members’ holiday snaps mainly. I’m also in two neighbourhood groups - one for my home town and one for the town I now live in. Both are fascinating, people yelling insults at their neighbours, people they actually know! That’s interesting because I’d always thought a certain nastiness was a risk of anonymity. Seems not!
Deleted mine shortly after the Cambridge Analytica snafu. Now I block Facebook and it’s subsidiaries on my local network.
I really only use it for gigging. Businesses promote our shows and it’s really the only way that is even remotely helpful for letting people know about gigs. While there certainly are other ways, FB and the musician groups i’m a part of have the best impact.
Dammit you’re making a good case for reactivating Facebook.
Or maybe I should just make a new one at this point?
I have one mostly for msgr, which i pretty much exclusively use to find illicit substances so… 🤷♂️ do with that what you will lol
You dont need Facebook for Messenger. I deactivated mine so that I dont lose the contacts
True…
But then I wouldn’t be able to randomly fb stalk someone I used to work with like 10 years ago who randomly popped in my head and then get kinda bitter cuz it looks like shit’s going significantly better for them than me…
Not that I’d do that or anything…
