Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

What Mark is really saying you will be back. if anyone is still on Facebook after all these years he is probably right. He also knows if anything that does take it out. He will just buy it up and once again those people will be back under meta's control. He has too much money. The only answer is to stop using identity based social media.

My queer friends have flooded away from FB after the change in moderation standards. There seems to be a critical mass now. I'm just a tad disappointed they went to Bluesky instead of following me to Mastodon.

Yeah that's my point if it gets critical mass that starts to impact Facebook he will just buy it. It's not the first time Jack Dorsey has sold out to a fascist asshat.

My mom moved away from meta because of this asshat. It seems now everything is possible. She went from WhatsApp to signal and Facebook to Bluesky.

Good for her I'm glad one person got away

[–] RQG@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

Me too. But I'm mostly surprised.

That's the beauty of the fediverse. It cannot be bought anymore than someone can buy "the internet".
