"We all hate FB" ?
FB groups is relied on by rescue groups routinely with huge altruistic benefits. An example I personally know:
animal shelter workers routinely find homes for abandoned animals, rather than euthanasia...at least in the United States.

- burnished 5y agoAt a guess 'personal or lived experience', why, what did you imagine?
- eyelidlessness 5y agoWhat I imagined is this is a very significant part of how FB is used and I don’t think the person who uses it this way misrepresented it. Also based on my personal and lived experience but, I don’t think it’s an outlier. Rescues and pet loving communities use FB very effectively. The app/product is terrible but this is one of the places where thats not the case
