Honestly, I believe that facebook is already on the myspace path of slow and long decay. And their nail coffins will be all the shenanigans with content. There are unbearable ads on instagram - whenever I have a chance to glimpse what happens there, there's more content that doesn't belong to my friends. Same goes for facebook: earlier this year, there was a constant flood of AI generated content; messenger had same thing - my contacts list shows me people I don't know or I don't want to get in touch with, or some old-fashion celebrities and influencers. fb feed in general tend to show stuff out of order for years and even if you manage to get into the old chronological sorting, it will keep you from scrolling further into the past giving you impression that in order to be up-to-date with what happens there you should be there. I really believe that entering ActivityPub is anything else but a grab on freely available data they can use to train their algorithms. Neither I won't be surprised when they decide to leave fediverse - because that will eventually happen. They just need to figure out how to turn time spent there pretending to be "open", profitable. --- And as a fun thing: I was scrolling yesterday mastodon and bumped on a few posts from an user who seems to be dealing with threads moderation system suggesting removal or edit of some of his posts [1], and a weird "scratchie" approach to unlock additional icons for the app. This feels as both overly sanitized and quite childish approach.
