Comment on Meta is now a defense contractor
AnAmericanPotato@programming.dev 10 months agoI honestly don’t know how I could use Facebook that way. Seriously. I log in once in a blue moon, and half the stuff I see scrolling through the main feed has nothing to do with any of my friends as far as I can tell. And that’s with an ad blocker.
I don’t understand how anybody can stand it. Maybe it’s a “boiling frog” situation, or maybe they’ve developed better counter-strategies than I am familiar with? I quit Facebook about 10 years ago and when I poke my head in now, it’s completely different. It is terrible in ways I wouldn’t have believed 10 years ago.

Do you mean it’s ads or something else? I have a few ads too but mostly it’s stuff I’ve followed.

Lots of recommendations for groups, recommendations of random people to follow, and things like that. If these are paid ads, they are not clearly presented as such.
Though I just logged in (first time in a while) and I didn’t see that, so…maybe it changed, or maybe my ad blocker is doing better than it used to? Not sure.
