but what other honest and trustworthy corporation do I give all this valuable personally-identifiable information to?
I find it hard because of my Livejournal friends, it's the way we're still in touch.
Exchange your email with your fb friends and toss your fb account in the trash.
I remember I made a Kurt Cobain reference as a joke, and Facebook said I was breaking the rules against suicide or whatever.
Yeah, the same Facebook that was totally fine with an actual violent video I reported
A few years ago, someone my daughter knew from school was posting pictures of her cuts from self harm on Instagram. I reported it to instagram but they didn't do anything about it.
Do it, make the community. I'd subscribe. This post got lots of traction. There's an audience.
Why so much anger? Just stop using it. Apathy is better than anger.
I can't even remember when I logged into fb last.
Deleted my account about 10 years ago. At times it was hard, but every time I hear about some new crazy shit they're doing I can't help but think I did great.
I’d like to start a Lemmy community with photos of stuff that they refuse to remove called FacebookSaysItsFine.
I get why you feel this way, but this feels a little superfluous. Like, making that community will never, ever change how Facebook does business, we're not going to shame them into being better by cataloging the terrible shit they allow. In other words, all we're doing is choosing to make a forum filled with the horrible, hate-filled posts that Facebook says are okay. I'm honestly more comfortable just leaving them on Facebook and not posting the same vile garbage here to make fun of it, because I don't think it will change anything other than a history of hateful posts on Lemmy.
We can make fun of how much they suck without bringing their awfulness and putting it on display over here, especially when doing that isn't gonna change a damn thing. Facebook has the "fuck you" money to ignore it.
Also, by definition such a community would contain a bunch of things we don’t want to see on Lemmy either. So probably better not to.
Exactly!! Why showcase shit we hate? Why spend energy on shit we hate?
Zuckerberg is going to end up trying to become the king of Hawaii.
I think I’m ootl.. why Hawai‘i?
