Facebook had their first year-over-year decline of revenue in their history. good, they have monetized the emotional manipulation of their users with no regard to the damage that is doing to society and our institutions. they are morally bankrupt and anyone who chooses to work there is complicit.

despite all this, astonishingly FB received over 20% of all online advertising spend. that is… mind booglingly large and sadly means they aren’t going anywhere soon 💀

The way you take away a bullys power is ignore them

The biggest impact we can make on "services" like these is to put our money where our mouth is by not using them and telling other people about alternatives. I am speaking to myself here too - After a year, I am still trying to get rid of Gmail. · 2 years ago

All these services are crap I am still astonishing how people are so addicted to them...

But I use Federation/Fediverse platform on a daily basis I'm not sure I am that better... 🤔 · 2 years ago
