lnxw48a1: @gnu2 That's a good question. I do not know. I haven't had a #Facebook account since around 2010 or so, and I have never had an #Instagram account. There was political and other news discussed, but it wasn't the focus of the people I saw, and I don't remember organizations having much.

lnxw48a1: In theory, I agree, but in practice, I have used #Ring, the earlier version of #Jami. The experience was so poor that I can no longer get my in-person contacts to try anything that is not #Facebook / #Instagram / #Zoom. And that's without ever trying the #videochat functionality ... we only used text chats and it was still a really poor experience. I've heard it got better, but of course, none of my in-person contacts will try it again. This also affects apps like #Briar and #Session.

lnxw48a1: It would be nice to have a big chunk of the people who are using #corpocentric #socnets like #Twitter and #Facebook and #Instagram move some or all of their presence over to the #OStatus and #ActivityPub branches of the #Fediverse, but I'd much rather they come because they want to try something different instead of coming because they are fleeing some change or impending change over there. Why? Because these networks will never give them everything that those did. I personally believe that these networks can give some benefits that those cannot, but thus far, we've mostly tried to replicate their functionality ... without the benefit of nearly unlimited VC cash and a centralized model which puts $CentralizedNetwork at the center of its users' communications, where benefits built upon centralized knowledge of users' actions / choices / contacts. Therefore, in 2-3 weeks, I expect 9 out of 10 new users to have have returned to Twitter ... or to some centralized network that springs up to duplicate Twitter without the Musk factor. This has happened before. Maybe not on this scale, but it has happened. Multiple times. And always, most of them leave.

lnxw48a1: I closed my #Facebook account years ago. I have never regreted it. I lost contact with a nephew that didn't use any other channel, but that fixed itself later. I considered opening an #Instagram account back when #A1's baby pictures were being posted there, but I decided not to join. As Facebook focused more on walls than garden, trying to motivate me to rejoin so I can see some content, I have never been tempted.

lnxw48a1: I had heard people talking about a #Facebook outage. Now I see #Cloudflare’s post about it: https://blog.cloudflare.com/october-2021-facebook-outage/ #DNS changes preceded (and later ended) the outage. Now #real_talk: No matter how much you like Facebook, #Instagram, #Whatsapp, Facebook #Messenger … you need to make sure that you and your contacts have another active channel of communication that can be used in place of each of those. Because your communications and relationships with people you care about are too important to entrust them solely to one corporation.

lnxw48a1: Apparently, the FTC (and 48 state attorneys general) are suing #Facebook over its monopolistic practices, including buying up emerging competitors. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/25/facebook-ftc-lawsuit-440645 [www politico com] CAUTION: #JavaScrippled https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/09/tech/facebook-antitrust-lawsuit-ftc-attorney-generals/index.html [www cnn com] https://news.yahoo.com/states-ftc-suing-facebook-alleged-193833264.html [news yahoo com] The biggest question on everyone's minds should be where is #USDOJ? They should have sued back when Facebook bought #WhatsApp and #Instagram ... or at the least, been actively involved in prosecuting this lawsuit. It really does seem like DOJ's beef with #Google is that the bribes ^W political contributions weren't large enough or didn't reach the right person.

lnxw48a1: It’s important to realize that your contacts that keep asking you to join #Facebook and #Instagram and #Twitter, but refuse to follow your out-migration from #corpocentric platforms to decentralized platforms like the Fediverse, are not likely to change just because you did. If you feel it necessary to use those platforms alongside these, feel free. Just remember to #POSSE (Post on your Own Space, Syndicate Elsewhere), so their non-owner ownership of your content does not affect how you can use your own posts.

lnxw48a1: @dragnucs What I mean is they use the same APIs and AP protocol, and attract pretty much the same people (those who will even consider using the #Fediverse instead of [or in addition to] #Corpocentric #Lockiverse platforms like #Facebook, #Instagram, #Twitter).

lnxw48a1: I almost joined #Instagram at one point, because #Mama_A was posting a daily pic of #Little_Boy_A (at the time, known as #Baby_A) and had stopped sending them directly. But I decided not to do so. Seeing @stigatle's post about their recent change, I am very glad I made the choice I did.
