#defacebook — Public Fediverse posts

Kilka dni temu minął mi miesiąc na Mastodonie, a nadal zaglądam na fejsbuka. Smuteczek, ale ciągle jest tam kilka osób, które lubię czytać, a które nie publikują nigdzie indziej.

Jednakowoż ostatnio najczęściej tam zaglądam po to, by kasować swoje stare wpisy.

Najpierw zacząłem usuwać wszystko co fb podsuwał we "Wspomnieniach". Założenie było proste: za rok nie będzie już żadnych wspomnień, tablica będzie pusta. Miło. No ale w międzyczasie trochę się zniecierpliwiłem, więc wyczaiłem jak usunąć wszystko naraz, albo choćby partiami, ale tak by nie zamykać konta. Udało się częściowo, posty starsze niż jakieś 8 lat nijak nie dają się usunąć hurtem (dzięki, Zuck!). No więc znów mi się zwolniło. I tak sobie klikam - co otworzę fb, to kasuję kilka postów.

I muszę przyznać, że jest to dość smętne doświadczenie: poprzetykana śmiesznymi memami kronika bulwersu, irytacji, bezsilności, strasznej polityki i strasznych na nią reakcji. Czarne Protesty, wycinanie lasów przez Szyszkę, covidowa depopulacja, zamarzający uchodźcy, protesty o TK, brednie o szczepionkach powodujących autyzm i tak dalej.

Dziwne uczucie gdy się to przegląda tak w masie, dziwnie tak sobie uświadomić, czym się żyło ostatnie kilka/naście lat, i że faktycznie były to głównie rzeczy albo nastrajające depresyjnie, albo podnoszące ciśnienie. I że chcąc nie chcąc, zostało się wessanym przez tą spiralę kontrowersji i zaprogramowanego algorytmem zaangażowania.

Lepsze to niż wizyta u psychoterapeuty, widać wszystko jak na dłoni, oczy otwierają się same i to w szybkim tempie. Nie trzeba miesięcy rozkmin, wystarczy kilka minut skrolowania w przeszłość.

Jestem już na roku 2012 :)

Let's the healing begin!

#VamonosJuntas Estamos financiado las guerras de EEUU usando #google #whatsapp #meta #amazon. Hay alternativas. Propuesta: mantener temporalmente Whatsapp, respondiendo cada vez más tarde y añadiendo que hacemos más caso a Signal, al email o llamadas, por los motivos anteriores, privacidad, etc. ¿Es #Signal una aceptable alternativa teniendo en cuenta que aunque es de una fundación, está en EEUU? ¿Alternativas a Android para móviles no modernos?

Is there a service that can analyze people's RSS reading feeds and visualize the connections between them?

Earlier this summer I received a warning from Meta Quest that my 19 year old account was being used by a child.* They wanted me to confirm my age by sending them a photo of a government ID or credit card, which I was reluctant to do. Hence they suspended my Facebook, Instagram and Messenger account, I let the reactivation period lapse.

I'm actually glad it happened, this was the push I needed to de-Facebook my life. Luckily I had already downloaded and deleted most of my data from the services.

* I still don't know what caused this, it could be that my kids' use of a Quest headset on my account was analyzed in some way.

Finally got through the process of downloading my old Facebook and couple of Instagram accounts data today. Pretty extensive! Had wait several days on Facebook alone.

Just clicked to confirm deletion of ALL my Meta accounts and couldn't be happier!

I have also mostly finished moving all +200 online accounts using my various gmail and outlook emails over to Proton Mail aliases! Coming for you next Google and Microsoft, so watch out!

It's hard work, but take back your data, privacy, and peace of mind from these big tech companies that profit from your doomscrolling and selling your data!

Thanks to all the folks on here, Reddit, and YouTube that have given insight, especially @techlore. Thank you!

#manufacturingConsent

*edited to add: there are often open-source alternatives, many of which need help with everything from translation to documentation to writing code. That is to say, I acknowledge that for many interactions, my posting the hashtag on it's own is reductionist, but perhaps where Manufacturing Consent seems relevant, we can trace our steps back and figure out the point we started consensually engaging with the entity that is or seems to be manufacturing consent.

There's probably a spectrum of degrees of choice represented at those points we started consensually engaging with the other entity, depending on (em)urgency of the customer's need and degree of monopoly supplier holds. Eg.: emergency medical care > insulin pump > railway ticket.

The user has to consent to all of those things, but obviously at one end of the spectrum is "or death", and moving away from that things get more relaxed.

Crikey. Sorry. Don't stand there. I think there's a soapbox on the floor. Dangerous stuff this social media!

For users who just want instant messaging & group-chat, is it worth mentioning Delta Chat?

It leverages email, so all it needs is for the user to make an email address for it, which is an achievable goal for most people.

https://github.com/deltachat

Obviously I accept Signal is the easiest to "sell", because it has voice/video calling, and we can just say it's the one US cabinet members use, so it's sort of a "household name".

After using Facebook for over - what, 20 years? - my profile has finally been deleted. It was fun until it wasn't. Results: more new social connections, with less stress and anxiety. Not having to be a donor of data to Meta is also a huge relief.

#deMeta #deFacebook

I wanted to leave Facebook for years, but the fear of losing memories and connections was holding me back for too long. So yesterday I triple-checked my offloaded data for contacts, photos and conversations, and then moved through numerous confirmations from the #silo — are you sure? do you really want to do this? etc (as if my own doubts were not stressful enough :blobmelt:). Finally, I hit the button and got my account set up for deletion. Feeling relived and proud of myself.

That's why I'm happy not to use Chrome!

A great festival.
Not as criticism, but solidaric and respectful suggestion: it would be great if it could be promoted without using meta/facebooks destructive platform.
