I haven't killed my account over there or anything. I'll probably keep it in a dormant state because there are just too many situations where I might need it.

THAT SAID

I don't even need to get on a high horse about ethics or the new administration to be bailing on Facebook. My feed there is a disaster. Half of it is groups I didn't follow. I don't know when they added that "feature." Before the election, those unfollowed group posts were inflammatory political crap. Now, they're mostly AI-generated fake images.

And speaking of AI-generated fake images, I clicked ONE VIDEO on their video shorts and managed to train the algorithm that I want to see fake videos of AI-enlarged sea life. That's absurdly specific. How is that even a category?

I get the argument that Facebook holds so many relationships that will be hard to keep up otherwise, but it's gotten so hard to find content from any of those relationships that I'm not sure the argument makes sense anymore
