    It would force everyone who still wanted to use Facebook to upload more fresh data and get hooked again in the process. It’s not a relevance play. It’s a “we want all your new data” play.

      It’s a “stupid bastard floats an idea to instantly crash his flagship” play. These people aren’t cunning Machiavels, they’re morons like everyone else.

    Nobody shares things any more. It’s all just reposts from shitty pages that no one actually chose to subscribe to.

    If they did this though, some people may decide to start over on Friendica 🤷‍♂️

      there was no avoiding it becoming this way, they never really let you control your own feed on any app like reddit, modern twitter, facebook, etc.
