There are several hobby groups as well as industry groups I beong to and use it for.
Could you be more dramatic?
Edit: if you don’t like plug-ins, why don’t you remove all your ad-blockers and anything else you use to make the internet more usable? Seeing as you’re against people using “hacks” to make things usable.
I mean, when I don’t have ad blockers I just don’t use the internet. And there’s a lot of websites that I wouldn’t ever visit again even with an adblocker. Because erasing one tiny part of something terrible doesn’t make all the other parts less terrible. Facebook isnt something that can be fixed, it’s fundamentally broken by design. It’s whole purpose(for the last 10+ years at least) is to be a data-sucking, privacy violating, brain-washing manipulation machine. It was literally rebuilt from the ground up to be as addictive, influential, and invasive as possible. It has no redeeming factors, everything that it once did kinda well can be done much better and much easier in other places that don’t have all that baggage.
Stop straddling the fence. You’re talking out both sides of your face and probably your ass, too. You can’t even obey your own rules. Either the internet is just as broken as facebook and requires tools to fix it and avoid ads, tracking, and tailored feeds, or maybe you should just go ahead and stay off the internet. Whatever, man. Go double-standard someplace else.
What ‘internet’ do you think I’m even using? I use almost entirely federated services. Like I have gotten off the internet. This isn’t the 90s anymore where it’s fun to just open up the browser and ‘browse’. Plus the internet isnt just one thing and it’s definitely not the same as Facebook. There’s lots of websites that don’t have all that tracking and tailored feeds, and I don’t use the ones that do, how is that hard to understand?
