    I wouldn’t say nothing happened. Young people migrated off of it and it’s now the lead gasoline of the social media world

      Yeah but young people didn’t migrate off it because it was harmful

      They migrated in part to instagram which Facebook bought and made even more harmful than Facebook itself

            facebook has a very different target audience

            facebook is mostly about 60+ year olds holding their beer and saying sth like “beer, car, church is all we need” while instagram is predatory on 16-y.o girls telling them that they’re not pretty and worthy of love if they’re not significantly (scarily, in fact) underweight and wear lots of makeup to cover their true emotions/face.
