Facebook promises even more misinformation and hate speech.
My Facebook feed was already full of it, so it is impressive that they believe they can make it worse.

I am not very active there, but it is the only place to keep abreast on certain things in my local community and the like.
I also want to understand the world and how hate and misinformation spreads and Facebook is great for that.

@jon, I never used Fakebook and I never would. Ten years ago I had an Twitter account, at this time stil usable, but now it is not longer an option for me, Both are only readable with VPN, facemasks, rubber gloves and disinfectant spray.

@jon I'll take user generated misinformation over whatever Facebook thought was true.

@jon Be merciless with "friends" on FakeBook. Begin by extracting the algorithm by viewing posts chronologically. (Do a web search if needed. But I think https://facebook.com/?sk=h_chr should be it.) Unfollow/Unfriend them when you see any "friends" consistently spreading disinformation.

I know there are hacks like this, but I am also interested in seeing what I see when I do not do that. I want to see what a normal users sees and what I see then is not nice.

@jon I dropped Facebook when the Linux groups , very specific, two groups for free educational software where taken over by porn. They do just the same on Instagram. Porn will always pay for content, "Onlyfans" is not enough. I was supposed to moderate and promite, banning, blocking was ignored, they had paid for the adverts. Well, not much, because the dominant racket came from India. Some groups were Norwegian and people here that I met socially made their comments, they knew that I managed the groups, ad at a concert it is not funny to be reminded.
