Like a swiss knife? :) Oh I see your point, and I also dislike certain tools that, despite their possible wide set of functionalities, still don't convince me.

Like a swiss knife? :) Oh I see your point, and I also dislike certain tools that, despite their possible wide set of functionalities, still don't convince me. Facebook is definitely one of them. However, my question was more generic because social media themselves are not bad. HN is also a social media, after all. Of course, when you give all your data to someone, well, you take some risks. I just don't like the idea that one tool is "just" bad. Facebook, more specifically, offers many features, and some of these are really interesting to me, less to somebody else, yet there are other "things" which don't convince me too much.
