Am I the only one that keeps some separation between different platforms?
For example, there are people I follow on Snapchat, but I have absolutely no interest doing the same on Facebook Messenger. My Facebook is still mostly people I have met in real life and care about, that and groups I am a part of because social life.
I don't want to adulterate that with chat bots, and ordering pizza and any other integrations. In reality I spend very little time in Facebook messenger and have zero interest in increasing the amount of time I spend on Facebook.

And I welcome all these changes, as they are really maturing the platform and making it a delight to use. I have a group chat on messenger of all my friends, and when they added the simple options to change the group colours, add nicknames, and even change the default emoji to something other than a thumbs up, messenger became a whole lot more fun to use. I can't wait to see how it develops with these changes.
- equalsnil 11y agoHonestly curious: Why is this your first and only comment on HN?
- 0xdeafcafe 11y agoHonestly, because I needed karma so I could confirm this account on keybase. So I jumped on the homepage and commented on something I thought relevant to me.
- rm_-rf_slash 11y agoI agree completely. My Snapchat friends are nothing like my Facebook friends (since by definition we keep up in very different ways) and my Twitter feed contains very little from either. And then there is the microscopic overlap between any of those social networks and my Xbox Live account.
