You could make the exact same arguments about FB being irrelevant, the difference is that your social group doesn't revolve around iMessage group chats and twitter, they revolve around facebook and Facebook Messenger. Using an android over an iPhone basically locks you out of most group chats because Apple refuses to be normal human beings and develop an open API - So please tell me again how I can ignore Apple when it's actually Facebook you can safely ignore? Note that I am a long-term android user.
- corrral 4y agoFB is where basically all local social interaction takes place. Restaurants, schools(!), neighborhoods/HOAs, local governments, kids' sports stuff, et c., all treat it as their main platform for communication. These may (may) provide info through other outlets, but they're usually neglected, outdated, and incomplete—you are expected to use Facebook. I don't even have an account with them, but I have to visit the site all the time. If my wife didn't have an account, I'd have to get one, for the times when it's needed. FB is the Internet, as far as local real-world stuff goes.
