It's unpopular amongst "hackers" to devalidate the use of FB products in this way.

For better or worse, that's apparent from this.



I think the unpopular opinion here is "I don't find value, thus there is no value." When, in reality, many people do find a value. Somewhere.

Heck, I post maybe once a year on Facebook. It's how my in-laws communicate, so that's where I have to go if I want to interact with that part of my social graph. It has a value (however small), even if I wished it didn't.


I see what you're saying, but given how addictive FB is, and how much advertisement they use, you're kind of giving them the upper hand by playing neutral.

For instance, I never go to Walmart (but sometimes do). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=repxFQXVsHc
