Things like this are just rationalisations to keep doing something unhealthy with a better conscience. Sure, it probably helps a tiny bit, but if you're aware enough of how bad facebook is for the world, just stop using their services.
People were able to live without facebook before it existed, and you can again. Just arrange to interact with the people you care about face to face or via a call.
The people you "keep in touch with" by sometimes pressing like are not real relationships
- stevage 2y agoThis is a simplistic and not helpful form of advice. Often we need to use a thing that is not altogether good, but we can take steps to reduce the harm.
- mattigames 2y agoPeople were able to live before houses and apartments existed. And a lot of grandmas and grandpas only get their birthday remembered thanks to Facebook, sad as that may be it's the truth, those and many other relationships are keep alive because their counterparts check FB and only FB, by talking there not only clicking "like" or any other reductionisms alike.

- mattigames 2y agoI'm not talking about me, but about the millions that use the platform. BTW I do still use Facebook but for different reasons, mostly because it's the only platform many local musicians use to publish events among other info, yeah I know people lived without such privilege before, I couldn't care less.
