Public Service Announcement: The Facebook Logout
The Facebook Logout - We're really over Facebook. Here's their sample post text:
I’m logging out of Instagram/Facebook from November 10-13 as part of a user strike to hold Facebook accountable for the harms it is causing our society and around the world. From Covid-19 disinformation to inciting violence against marginalized communities to ignoring the mental health impact of Instagram on teens, enough is enough. We make or break Facebook and its platforms because they make money from our engagement and our data. Let’s use our power. Join me. thefblogout.com #TheLogout #theFBlogout
Seems like a good idea. Easy for me because I post on FB very rarely, though there are a few communities I sort of keep up with. ("Sort of" because between FB's algorithms and just plain bandwidth -- I'd say "firehose" but it's more like a sewer -- there's no way I could read everything even if I wanted to.)
My main social medium is right here.
