It’s too bad the core website didn’t go down with it. I believe the majority of users, at least those in the USA where FB is based, would be better off without it.
A week-long FB outage would surely result in a very interesting study of society’s response and adaptation to said event.

- flatline 5y agoEspecially during the pandemic it would be nice to have something that facilitated online communications with people I know IRL. I've never understood how to use it, whenever I go on I see someone's post and like it maybe go to comment only to realize it was from five days ago. People talk about getting into huge discussions and spending tons of time on there, I mostly see a handful of semi-stale posts, a handful of fresh ones, a handful of comments on a few of them. Maybe it is my friend group that is the problem? Maybe it is my infrequent usage? Maybe you have to use it a lot to get anything out of it? The other problem is that I would not have the same conversations with my conservative relatives as my liberal friends, and it feels awkward that everything is visible to everyone.
