Really?
I've never heard "I'd leave, but all my photos are on Facebook". Instead what I hear a lot of is "I'd leave, but all my friends are on Facebook".
Data portability solves an easy problem that relatively few people are bothered by; at the end of the day the big problem is that you can take your social graph with you. You can't make your friends all jump to service Y with you.
- Groxx 16y agoI hear the friends side (much) more, certainly, but I know quite a few people who upload their photos to Facebook and then delete them locally. Which is pretty idiotic, but about par for the course with most people and computers. I'd guesstimate I've encountered almost a dozen people doing that, which implies a pretty large amount when multiplied.
- msbarnett 16y agoInteresting. Certainly not a behavior I'd have expected, but I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.
