It started when they introduced the non chronological timeline. Everything from then on was about driving users to use the app more as opposed to being a tool to connect friends. Thanks to facebook I have met many friends throughout the wor

I disagree that it is anti competitive, it is not "killing" competition. Killing competition is setting prices that makes the competition go bankrupt, it's assassinating people, it's pushing for changes that prevent the

I'm using both gemini pro and chatgpt plus/pro all the time, while gemini is FAST, its answers are systematically worse. So much so that I don't use it for anything serious anymore. It's a shame because the 1-2M context
