For staying up to date on my local shops and events, Facebook is just the easiest and more reliable option.

Not sure we should be shaming people about what social media they use lol

we absolutely should. facebook is fucking evil, and getting everything to move off it, damaging the network effect, is important for creating a more free and open information ecosystem.

Name social media platform that isn't "evil"

[–] primrosepathspeedrun@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

lemmy isn't too evil. on purpose. mostly.

certainly less vile than facebook. "no political system is perfect so im'a just exterminate the jews and revere the fuhrer" is not a good look

and if that sounds like hyperbole, remember how many of your young-male and elderly relatives were radicalized by that social media platform, which has been critical or complicit in multiple genocides, finished and ongoing.
