I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.

However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.

I would sooner put my nuts in an iron vice while running 10.000 volts through it and lighting it on fire than provide Facebook with anything at all.

[–] darkmarx@lemmy.world 40 points 4 days ago

Me too, but it has nothing to do with Facebook. Don't kink shame me.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How about putting googly eyes on your nuts and making a video selfie of them to send Facebook?

I think I will steal your wording for future use.

Have you ever had a Facebook account?

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Nope. Managed to stay off of it for my entire life so far. Reason for it was that back in '05 or a bit later one of the very first things I learned about the nascent Facebook, was Zuck's famous "Dumb fucks" remark about his early users. I rightfully concluded that someone with such a mindset would be an absolutely plague on mankind and I would never willingly help them in any way, no matter how insignificant.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

What socials have you had then?

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Reddit until two years ago, and now Lemmy. That's honestly it.

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Same for me. I never understood what motivated that content and, by extension, why I should care about consuming it.

Ooo you had a cheeseburger tonight! IDGAF.

Some witty political insights! Fuck off.

Your child was born! Wonderful, send an email or an announcement card in the mail.

Large scale emergency! I’m going to a reputable news source; I don’t need user-curated echo chambers.

Old friends and acquaintances catching up? I’ve had the same cell phone number for 25 years. If they wanted to reach out, they can refer to the phone number I wrote in the yearbook.

It’s just dumb.

[–] Ste41th@lemmy.ml 4 points 4 days ago

Fair enough, I honestly applaud you for that, because you’ve managed to avoid the data sucking machine of meta and its services

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

I had one many years ago because my wife talked me i to it and 'deleted' it due to not using it after a couple years because it was showing me other things than just my contacts even back then. It was mostly a way to see my hogh school acquaintences and childhood friends who moved far away were still alive.

The superficial connections were fine, but not engaging like nearby friends. I have one friend who does post there and sometimes forgets to put it elsewhere, but my wife lets me know when he does.

Note: I put 'deleted' because there is zero chance they deleted anything other than the ability to log in.

Even if you don't have a facebook account, you've got a facebook account.
