Journalists are an interesting counter-example that I hadn't thought of. Are there any other examples where maintaining an account is effectively a requirement of the job?
As for kids these days and their strange lifestyles, modern humans managed to survive and propagate for thousands of years without Facebook, and if the entire company was burnt to the ground tomorrow, I'm sure we'd adapt. It's only a "problem" because many people seem to think they absolutely must follow the cutting edge of hot social trends, like staring at your smartphone all day instead of talking to actual people face-to-face, or else risk being uncool and out-of-touch. Those of us who were always uncool and out-of-touch just roll our eyes when we're told this is such an essential part of their lives that they can't possibly give it up.
- dudely0253 7y agoI run a brick and motor. I don't have a tool better than Facebook/Insta for communicating with our members/customers/community. We often (probably twice a month) ask if FB is still a requirement. Not because it doesn't preform well, but because we see the problem. We don't have a solution to replace it. EVERYONE says they don't use it. That doesn't seem to be the case.
