Reply to: Facebook is going down the toilet

I do not want to read their posts about their child/dinner/dog/whatever

You can do that on TPD anyway.

FB has been going down the pan since it was proved that about 50% of the accounts are fake, made up by people to farm likes and get paid.

And also the fact that Zombieberg is clearly just harvesting all your dataz.

But I think the main nail in the facebook coffin for me was mainly cos I ain't got that many people I want to be friends with - those that i do I try and meet and do my update in person.

The rest - well if I do not want to make the time to meet them in person then chances are I do not want to read their posts about their child/dinner/dog/whatever.

TL;DR

I got no mates!

I may set up Amazooglebook as some kind of "social media site" seeing as I own one variant of the domain name. I won't offer anything useful, just harvest your data and sell it to the highest bidder. Discounted sign up fees to first 1m users to register. Sockies welcome with valid credit card details. Winner!

Good time to register on NamesFacesPlaces...

Don't bother with that social media c*p, just have a page for my little business which I never bother to update. Oddly, had a warning today that someone had requested a change of password.

I use it quite a lot now, mostly for Amazon selling groups though where everyone is like minded.

Dont do that social tulip side of it though.

Oh.. Very good!










Bastard..

Thank you.

Look in a single thread I've sorted both this year's (NLUK) and next year's (WTFH) Xmas Party organisers.

That's not a bad day's work..

LM you are safe now until 2022..

[eek]

If it's Christmas, I hope it's inside!

One way of ensuring it's inside is organising it.

Just saying...

But we'll mark you down for 2021 at the moment. NLUK is sorting it this year..

[northernladuk]

So you're organising this years do?

Oh.. Very good!

I am on a couple of really useful FB groups so can't quit. Have unfollowed all the annoying people I.e. absolutely EVERYONE....and only see updates from the groups. Sorted.

[WTFH]

Inside or outside?

If it's Christmas, I hope it's inside!

We need someone to organise next year's Xmas do....

I gave up about 2 years or so ago. Vastly reduced my use of WhatsApp and Instagram too.

I can't say I miss FB at all.

Actually lost some friends because of it as they felt I was being selfish...
