#Farcebook has suddenly stopped letting me log in on the Linux desktop, from either laptop and any browser, which means I can't check my messages. (I don't, and never will have, the "app" on a 'phone - one of them it isn't even possible.)
On the desktop I log in, I get redirected to a series of CAPTCHAs, passing on the third, then get thrown back to the log in page. The "AI support assistant" tells me to clear cookies, or try another browser...
It was fine last night before I went to bed.

I've found a downside to leaving #Facebook (or #Farcebook as a friend calls it):
If your only connection to someone was on that site, you've lost them.
So, Traci - if you're out there - happy birthday.

Do things seem grim? Overwhelming? Hopeless? Does it seem like the entire world is going straight down the gurgler because of human venality, rapacity and idiocy? Congratulations! Your cognitive abilities are functioning at 100%! You win nothing! #Farcebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/24038043572449155

Yeah, keep on telling me how #meta isn't that bad and it won't (eventually) effect you:

"The sad irony here is that Facebook runs much of its infrastructure on Linux and often posts job ads looking for Linux developers."

Endnu en grund til at se at komme væk fra #Facebook. No mener de helt seriøst, at sider om #Linux er en #cyberthread - altså farlige.

It's a bit ranty towards the end, but there's some fascinating insights here into shifting sands of the ZuckerBorg's metrics, FarceBook enshittification, and so on:

like #Ozymandias, Mark #Zuckerberg may one day learn the hard way that all of his planning to elevate himself above the risks of the mortal world has been for naught. If the #apocalypse does come, hurling us all into nature… The security guards that you hired to protect you are going to think more about protecting themselves. The construction workers who built your compound will know where all the food is hidden.

@50sFarmGirl I don't have a #Farcebook account, is there a link elsewhere?

"The Meta AI Chatbot Is Mark Zuckerberg"
Oh... so that's how they do it! They just have Mark feed the answers.

The corporate social media platforms:
"We will stand up for your right to free speech... as long as it is speech that we like... and as long as it does not hurt our bottom line... and..."
I'm attaching a story about Facebook, but any social media platform with substantial business in India is likely to engage in this bullshit.
I'm not surprised. If a multinational has interests in multiple countries, it is going to look at its bottom line and privilege the ideology of the most regressive country.
This is yet another reason why the fediverse is superior. If India wants to police the servers within its borders, they can have at it. They cannot touch the servers abroad.

We are all equipped with #choice. I came here for the #conversation, spent 2 minutes in the #confrontation, learned about #block and #mute and here we are.
I think #guidance on happy use of the Fediverse makes sense. Ppl coming here after years on #Farcebook and #xitter (pronounced Shitter in deference to #president #Xi), have gotten used to being torn apart over an asterisk or a comma.
Here it takes a moment to realise those people aren't here. They are still on #shitter.
Many folks, me included, didn't even know there was a word for #ablism for example. I do now and try to keep it in mind, simply because #someone pointed out of to me.
These #discussions can become the core of what the #Fediverse is so about.

Among other things, #Gaddafi worked to unite countries in #Africa.
His last words before he was murdered by #HillaryClinton's henchmen were interestingly about #Farcebook.
> "They are making you all drunk (on Fb)."
We understand many people in so-called "#developingNations" are not allowed to afford a #webExperience outside of #fakebook. It adds a whole new layer of meaning to the phrase 'under the influence'.

Every now and then I want to @mention someone I know, who I remember interacting with here at some point, but I can't remember their fediverse address. Every time I try, I remember the existing #fediverse apps aren't good at helping me distinguishing my friends from the random strangers I've casually chatted with here.
This is why we're nowhere near ready to replace FarceBook. Although I'm hopeful that newer projects like Bonfire might get us closer...

Getting back into the habit of turning my overly long fediverse posts and blog comments into posts on my own blog.
Just how does one switch from FarceBook to fediverse?

No joke, this was the title of a real article published on Psychology Today in 2012. How far we've come...

@stevesilberman You’ll have to tell us. Not on #Farcebook and do not want to be.

@davekh Hey Dave, I'm finding Mastodon really interesting, especially with the #linux native apps like TheDesk and Whatebird!!
Hope all is well with you? Michelle has had her #Farcebook account hacked and whoever it is, they want £100 off her for her to have it back..... This is just bonkers and finding a way other than #Twitter to get in touch with them to sort it out is ludicrous..... -
I wonder if #Friendica has similar controls, as it's supposed to be a #Farcebook recplacement.

Yeah. This community always blows me away. Generally super wholesome.
As much better than #birdSite as that is better than #FarceBook

@tulpa @daniel
I can see that, but I'd also like to offer that experience to the (dear God) FEW people I know who are open to something other than the exploitative black holes of #farcebook and #birdsite. -
"With Oculus and the Facebook account linked, one headset, and one user, ever greater pools of marketized data will be generated. Work, fitness, entertainment, social choices will all become a deeper quarry to be mined and monetised by salivating wonks in a corporate enterprise."

I thought I recognized the name Mia Garlick when I heard her speaking for FarceBook in the NZ news media:

Don't you hate it when you lock your keys inside your car?

@thegibson @lilithsaintcrow today's lesson is sometimes it is *not* appropriate to "eat your own dogfood" actually

@Decentralize_today
“Its own research is showing that content that is hateful, that is divisive, that is polarizing, it’s easier to inspire people to anger than it is to other emotions ... Facebook has realized that if they change the algorithm to be safer, people will spend less time on the site, they’ll click on less ads, they’ll make less money.”- #FrancesHaugen, 2021

Australian High Court judges recently ruled that the creator of a FarceBook page is legally responsible for any defamatory comments made on their page by third parties. This sets a legal precedent that seems likely to be applied to other social media spaces:
