A lot of commentary here (not all) seems to miss one critical point: what is the inherent value of Facebook to its users, and has THAT been recently degraded? Controversy aside, this will be the big factor behind an exodus from Facebook, and I would argue that for months if not a year or more, Facebook has ceased to provide value to an enormous portion of its user base.
- gnode 9y agoIf by users you mean the people with Facebook profiles, then the value to them doesn't matter, only engagement matters, being addictive and depressing is a winning strategy here, at least short-term. What matters is the value of Facebook to its customers. If users lose touch with the platform, consume less ads, and yield less data, then that will matter to Facebook.
