He means the network effects of it. Facebook has locked people in via Facebook groups, Instagram messenger and such.
So many people are in it’s if you don’t have it, it’s hard to be part of certain communities.
I deleted my Facebook like ten years ago, I missed out on a a LOT of party invites.
- dingnuts 2y agopeople just text me to invite me to things. I don't want to be invited to parties where someone just invites everyone they know on Facebook. if they want me there, they can ask me directly. My social life has not significantly changed since I quit Facebook. if you have good friends, they will find you. if you don't.. why do you care about losing them?
- bamboozled 2y agoPopular kids don’t care about that.
- merrywhether 2y agoThat’s a pretty glib stance. Plenty of people have difficulty finding a friend group and not everyone can be an island until they do (see the loneliness epidemic). Perhaps consider that there are other people with different life situations than yours for whom demanding individualized treatment does not work, and they may have much less choice about what technologies they have to use as a result.
