Why?

Everything successful fb has done in more than a decade is copying or acquiring competitors.

Zuck has spent a few years setting $36,000,000,000 on fire building secondlife2, that nobody wants. The stock is down 25% in the last 2 years.

facebook is like google, both are advertising companies at their core. They both leveraged one idea to serve adds really well and have failed to produce anything new in house since.

For the same price as an entire TV subscription where you can watch hundreds of shows and movies, all month if you’d like, would you like to have a few pixels change next to your name and have your experience be almost entirely the exact same as it is for free?

These people are out of touch

Does anyone remember being around people, when you were a kid, that awarded you behavioral stickers that are holographic and had various shapes like stars or animals?

This is exactly what this stupid verification thing is about. OoOOOoO, I’m so special that I got a fucking checkmark next to my name and I actually spend money that could’ve gone to something else worthwhile just to keep it! /s

I feel like we’re in a world where all of these companies are fronted by childish adults that treat all of their userbases like these kinds of kids. But they pretend that they’re adults because they do business things.

People on Threads are still delusioned that it’s different from Twitter lol

Elon managing to collect monthly fee for basically a jpeg, is definitely not worst of his business moves.
