I used Facebook just for one community that would not move elsewhere. So I had to check it once a month. But then Facebook started recommending me other interesting groups and communities I joined. In my experience Facebook 6 months ago just recommended random old memes and ads. And I was hoping enshitification would finally eat Facebook for good. (I mean tiktok like reels however still shows enshitification is their top priority)

But now I am member of groups with active and helpful people. Niche groups you will not be able to find on lemmy or even reddit.

For me to really start liking it again after 10 years into enshitification they would probably have to become really open. Like joining a fediverse and offer messenger interoperability with other apps. Probably even becomming opensource.

Is it true that facebook feed is becomming more interesting or is this just my feeling because I joined those groups that existed there probably for a long time? Is Facebook making a comeback?

    Facebook Dating is unironically miles beyond any other free dating service. That and Buy Nothing keeps me using the site.

      My one huge issue with Facebook Dating is that awful character limit. It should be 1,000 characters or 750 at least. 500 isn’t enough and people resort to just emotes, abbreviations and snippets of info that isn’t enough to grasp on.
