I actually have a fake profile I made a long time ago. It has 0 friends and I set everything to "Only me" in the privacy settings 5 years ago.
I login from time to time when I have to look someone up, but I'll never use it to interact with anyone.
>>55216177
Because it is hostile to privacy, has encouraged bad privacy practices and its business model revolts around profiling its user for advertising or selling their info to the best bid.
>>55216306
>its business model revolts
best typo evah!
>>55216194
This.
I have a Facebook that I keep just so that people don't steal my identity (I've had it happen before, so it's a fair precaution)
I'm aware that there's a lot the Facebook botnet can gleam from my friends list, but I try to use it as little as possible in any case
>>55216306
>revolves*
Lel thanks, I'm in the phone
>>55216397
>I have a Facebook
Do you *have* a google too? What about amazon? Do you *have* one of those? Stop using their terminology, smash the control images, smash the control machines.
>>55216475
If only I could
Really though, it's just semantics; by having saying I have a Facebook account, I'm already promoting their botnet services anyway, so saying I have a Facebook isn't much different
Will watch out for it anyway though
>>55216177
no friends senpai.
>>55216177
I do, though.
>>55216523
Good goy.

It's literally useless - nobody needs them stinking photos. Now VK though, it used to host astronomic amount of pirated shit and porn. They trimmed it down, but there's still a fair share of stuff.
I don't really have friends.
>>55216567
whats 'VK'?

VK is the Russian/Yuropoor FB. It's likely better and less but I wouldn't know since I don't go near that shit.
>>55216838
thanks
>>55216763
It's like a kazzaa and facebook hybrid
It wants to know who I am, confirming my name to government ID. I think an online social service has no business having my real identity.
>>55216914
Google does the same shit and asks for a picture of your actual drivers license on a birth date change or pay .30 cents.
>>55216177
Facebook is getting gayer by the day dude. All people do on that site anymore is Share stupid shit from buzzfeed and post pseudo-intellectual rants about "society." It's way more boring than it used to be and I'm noticing all of the cool kids i know are posting less on facebook and much more on other forms of social media. Normalfags are now seeing facebook as "the loser's social media." All the "cool people" have moved to Insta, twitter, and snapchat.
This is a natural progression because twitter, snap, and Insta require even less thought than facebook and offer instant gratification and don't require any talent or an interesting personality to use "correctly." You just post pictures of yourself with stupid filters or post a 1-to-2-sentence MAXIMUM piece of text. Modern society trends towards dumbed-down and streamlined shit so it's no wonder that myspace was phased out in favor of facebook, and facebook is being phased out by Insta.
>>55216969
The question was why don't I have a Facebook, not why don't I have a Facebook instead of g+
(I don't have either for the same reason)
>>55216431
how did you get inside there?
>>55216177
because i have myspace and tom is the only friend i need
>>55216983
Mostly just pointing out that all popular social is cancer.
>>55216978
Doesn't zuck own instagram?
>>55216194
This
I do but I only use it to occasionally chat to 5 people who I could barely call friends
>>55217000
If you're in a social circle or something like a club, Facebook is useful for keeping track of and organizing events with interactive feedback from those involved. Something an email list is inefficient at.
While I have reasons not to use it, the base functionality of social media sites is a good thing. Just because people for the most part misuse it, doesn't discount that.
>>55216985
Magic.
>>55217021
Yes because he's a skilled jew and he knows to be true the exact thing I have described. When he first bought instagram, all the "tech experts" and commentators called him a fucking retard. Years later, we see how profitable the decision was. Zuck the Cuck knows that anything dumbed-down and streamlined beats anything of similar quality without those traits. He saw Instagram and instantly recognized that it would 1 day kill facebook, because of how streamlined and retarded it is. He made the right choice and we're now seeing that logical progression happen. People will abandon facebook within the next 5 years.
I do.
Absolute waste of time. I don't even read other people's shit.
I only use it for chatting and birthday reminders
>>55217078
>most people go down with their empire (napster, myspace, etc.)
>zuck keeps on going
He's the alpha jew.
I use it to creep on girls pretty much. Anyone know where I can get a reliable Windows 7 pro key ? Thought I had a pre activated version but .... I don't

>they trust me, dumbfucks
The only things stopping me from getting rid of my account are
1. You occasionally see some interesting videos, pictures, articles being posted in groups & pages.
2. I feel like I'd be permanently disconnecting myself with old school or college friends whom I >occasionally talk to.
i do
Don't worry, goyim. Facebook is perfectly safe. We're not going to try and disprove the claims that we're harvesting your data so you'll just have to trust us, your friendly neighborhood jews, on it.
>>55217286
have they ever claimed that they don't harvest data?
that's their business.
is anyone on /g/ so naive that they think this is the BIG secret about facebook?
are you honestly this fucking stupid?
>>55216978
>I'm noticing all of the cool kids i know are posting less on facebook and much more on other forms of social media.
This shit always happens. It starts off as cool kids teen club where Stacey can check up on her bffs. Then everyone at school is on it, then parents know about it, then some relatives are on it. Once old people are on it its not cool and people use something else. See also fads like Gangham style or whatever.
Facebook is probably way overdue to die, all my family is on the thing.
>>55217364
I still have no idea what niche Facebook fills.
Want to post pictures? Instagram.
Want to post stupid little shit? Twitter.
The fuck is Facebook actually good for?
i was getting tons of messages when i was active
stopped updating profil pic, 4 years ago
no more messages
delet it
haven't used it since then
>>55217364
The other day I was talking to a 16yo, telling her to check something on Twitter (which I don't even use, but companies do), and she went "people STILL use Twitter?" I could have sworn it was still "hip", or something. I guess everything is through Snapchat now?
>>55217413
>"people STILL use Twitter?"
what a retarded kid
>>55217413
Everyone is still on good ol sms
>>55217398
If you watch that Social Network movie it was about getting the college pussy. A lot of other apps follow a similar trend. Iirc Snapchat is popular because people were sending lewd selfies.The cool kids in school(especially the hot girls) are all on some website or something, so everyone else gets on there. Then everyone else is on there, so something else becomes popular.
Zuckerberg is a clever jew. He knows Facebook is too big to fail like MySpace. So he just bought the competition.
>>55217606
>getting the college pussy
I didn't need Facebook for this.
