Honestly, as someone who chooses not to use fb, none of these appeal to me. They are all just variations on a shitty theme. If I want social, id be on facebook.

Honestly, as someone who chooses not to use fb, none of these appeal to me. They are all just variations on a shitty theme. If I want social, id be on facebook. None of these have 1. Thriving marketplace 2. My parents 3. Great event planning interface, where everyone already has an account. Those are all fb has to pull me in these days, and none of the alternatives get it. They are stuck in 2005 still trying to build 'social'.
- rblion 7y agoThis is pretty close to my analysis as well. I felt none of these really 'get it', they are trying to build a 'better Facebook' or an 'anti-Facebook', still in reference to Facebook either way. Facebook has what you mention, but also Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp, Occulus, plus Ads. I've read that they are creating another 'private social network' too. It's like trying to dethrone Windows or Google at this point.
