It's funny how much projection people do when speaking of FB, as if their personal experience offers some deep insight into a platform of 3.5 billion users whose usage varies by user, demography and geography.
- ok123456 4y agoIt's funny how people try to deny the simple truth that the site hasn't been fun to use in 15 years.
- krferriter 4y agoWhether or not it's fun doesn't isn't the primary driving factor in its continued popularity. People use it because other people use it. It got big and now has a network effect of inertia holding it in place until something else takes off and replaces it.
- ok123456 4y agoThen, why does my original post have +30? It must have struck a nerve with more than just myself.
- elcomet 4y agoBecause there's a certain group of people who feel the same way as you do. And maybe people who read HN are more likely to belong in this group. But HN is not representative of the world.
- drusepth 4y agoI'm not sure an opinion (how fun a site is to use) that surely varies wildly across FB's billions of users can even be a universal "simple truth".
