Killed Facebook because the people who were into it and enjoyed using it… stopped using it 10 years ago.
If I were to log into my Facebook account right now, I would see my mum posting Sovereign Citizen stuff. My aunty sharing photo after photo of my nephews and nieces. My other aunty talking about her later life crisis holidays to South Africa. And advertisement after advertisement for random junk.
If I’m lucky, one of my friends will have posted something like “Photo from Butterfly Effect reunion last night. These guys still kick ass”
“Facebook” is alive and well but it’s a different product than we knew and, whether intended or not, target audience is boomers and terminally online jerkoffs.
But Facebook still exists.
Yep, it still exists. Like a marionetted corpse waltzing around selling garage sale items and finding lost dogs.
I think you’re confusing it with Zuckerberg. Or maybe they’re one and the same?
Yeah, but have you seen the state of it recently? It’s a shell of its former self
Maybe but it’s almost a $2trillion dollar company. Might be a shell, but it’s popular.
“Addictive, coercive and profitable” ≠ Popular.
that’s Meta, not Facebook. I’d say now FB is one of their least valuable assets.
Maybe Zuck should add some legs to fb too
No, and I don’t intend to. Fuck that place.
I have not, thankfully.
I don’t understand the “killed Facebook” thing either. I haven’t used Facebook in almost 10 years but as far as I know it’s still printing money.

And by most estimates it has more active users than ever.
It’s no longer “hip” but being hip and being popular are opposing goals.
