RE: Venting About Facebook

in #life6 years ago

I have been finished with facebook for a long time now. Something changed around 2015 where my feed was just relentlessly bombarded with videos and ads about content I had no interest in. Actually finding what I wanted just become a frustrating exercise. I also feel the platform just ended up encouraging group think with people trying to score 'social points'.

For me now, I much prefer Steemit.

Sort:  

Yeah, I'm getting to that point myself. Having family and friends spread out so much around the world keeps me anchored there, simply because for me the "too much effort" would be keeping up with all those people one by one. But ultimately the ratio of work of weeding through crap, or putting out quality content only to have no one even see it because the algorithm doesn't like it... well that may eventually become the deciding factor. But I do prefer Steemit and read much more on here, plus only put anything really substantial here. I mostly do livestreaming on there though, because I don't do that on steem at all yet.
