    didn’t a ton of people move to mastodon?

    i’m not in the loop. the obvious solution would be people ditching twitter, but they probably won’t (i imagine the amount that moved to mastodon is small).

    people hate facebook and yet they refuse to leave, when several viable alternatives exist. it sucks.

      More and more people are leaving FB and Twitter for smaller platforms. Zuck and many others in the social/tech industry have known this for, at least, a couple of years.

        but in small numbers, it seems. i’ve been BEGGING my facebook friends to leave facebook and i provide alternatives… just crickets.

        i’m tired of facebook. for some reason my main facebook is entirely glitched so i can only log in in one town. i get locked out for “security reasons” if i’m out of town. accurately answering security questions does not get me back in.

        i was literally in my hometown - which i spent four years on on facebook, at least, and it’s literally listed as my hometown in my profile - and i was locked out of my facebook.

        tired of this. just move to freaking friendca. what’s so special about facebook? ads? that they spy on you? facebook jail no matter your political views? anyone refusing to at least try to leave that site is a fool.
