Yeah, I stopped using FB in like 2018. The only way to get me back there is to get all the older folks I don't want to bump into out og the platform LOL.
No Facebook will never be the same as the early years of writing obscene things on your friends “wall”, posting 100+ stupid pictures in an album and all the crazy stuff we did online when we didn’t realize how permanent the internet was going to be.
Those were the good old days!
That ship has sailed. Facebook is the new MySpace and Instagram is the new Facebook. I’d say this has been the case for at least 5 years now. Meta platforms are not relevant at all anymore for young consumer bases. Both from a professional advertising and personal use standpoint.
Nah it's not just you, Facebook is pretty much a wasteland of engagement bait and AI garbage. I don't think it'll ever get back to what it once was, nor do I think it's going to be able to attract a younger audience. I will say that its groups/communities seem to be increasingly popular. I'm in a number of niche groups and they're very active, even more so than similar reddit communities.
If it does move to a younger crowd, part of me thinks it’ll be a right leaning crowd since that’s where they’re moving.
Facebook lost its groove and has been cooked for years. I haven't posted on it in ages. I would kill my account except that it's the only way I can contact some relatives and friends from way back. I suspect a lot of other people feel the same. These days it's just a dump of disinformation and weird clickbait crap. It should probably be put out of its misery, but I guess it still makes enough money to keep it going forever.
Well if someone’s cool aunt who uses Facebook I feel a little attacked however, I’ve been using Facebook since it came out. That’s how old I am but no, it’ll never be cool again I know they’re trying to go back to their roots, but they’re doing everything wrong. Facebook is for the older generation now and Maddie needs to focus on Instagram for the kids.
