@steveriggins What prompted you to finally do it? Since I am logged into so many things with FB over the years I have not done that. I do use all Meta apps very sparingly now. Same for X. I really need a platform that has groups implemented really well. FB groups are actually really good, but so much of the platform is a problem.
@dimsumthinking@steveriggins Yeah, that is going to be incredibly interesting in 30 years. People will be able to ask an AI who their grandparents had beefs with on FB. Kinda weird.
@brennansv@steveriggins I did too. I tried to log in today to delete my FB account and was told my account has been locked since Oct 2022. I may leave it at that.
@dimsumthinking@steveriggins It is really unfortunate there has not yet been an viable alternative. Mastodon is just a weird chat thread on random topics. I really like how FB groups work and wish I could find that on an other platform. And if that platform could be self-hosted like Wordpress or Mastodon that would be great. I want posts, events, photo albums and the ability to assign moderators to the group.
I also want any new social media platform to have an API so I can pay a subscription to a moderation service that I choose which would be able to react to any reports made in the group to rule violations.
