What a missed opportunity! I should have been posting here the moment Facebook was down, and then all my friends and family would certainly download a Gemini client and switch to Station. Instead, I accidentally just enjoyed a day without any social media or being monitored or manipulated. I am such a fool!

diaspora would be a good alternative to the social network part of facebook. · 2 years ago

I remember being really upset when Facebook came back on, I was actually kind of excited to hear it was down, and that it was making the company bleed billions. It’s made me feel more committed than ever to cut Facebook entirely from my life. We caught a small glimpse of a world without it, and it felt so much better. · 2 years ago

which may be an alternative? Maybe Jami?

I don't use Facebook/Instagram but I have to use Whatssap when this blackouts happens for me is the right moment to leverage alternatives... I tried with Signal but after the crypto-shit I stop to push it.

Another option might be Element/Matrix, I really need a back-up in order to move forward and leaving also wassup... 🤔 · 2 years ago
