C. None of the above
I do have LinkedIn which I keep as a professional point of contact. But that is heavily filtered in what I post and what I bother reading.
I also have a Mastadon account for following the infosec.exchange community. Though I basically just lurk and don't post.
Meta is really the poster child for enshitification.
I don’t feel like they’re the poster child for enshittification; I still use Facebook the same as I did in 2006. It got worse, true, but it’s not enshittification worse. It’s worse because every cunt with a phone can get on from their phones. I don’t feel it’s enshittification as there’s no fees and it still serves the same basic function of keeping in touch with friends/family and uploading photos. How do you feel it was enshittified?
If they were charging for photo storage or a certain number of friends, or fees for business pages, I’d agree. I don’t see monitization or the ruthless pursuit of profit as the main force behind why Facebook sucks these days.
It’s free because they’re harvesting and selling all your data to the highest bidder.
