“The future is for everyone,” Zuckerberg says, describing future that is primarily good for Meta.

    I’ve never cared what this guy thinks. Sure he has manipulated millions but I saw him for a grifter from the start. Facebook is a useless tool that can be replaced by talking to your family and friends.

      Useless? How clueless can a person be?

      You don’t have to like it, but to disavow that it’s useful… Omg pure delusion

        I personally do not use it, am happy not using it, and gain negative utility when I used to use it

        I would classify a product that meets those criteria as “useless”

          Wow but there’s a whole world of people outside of your specific needs, and the millions and millions, if not billions of users prove it’s not useless

          You people need to declare how useless it is so it makes you feel special but get a grip

        I deleted my Facebook a decade ago and haven’t once felt like I was missing out on something. Anything you find “useful” about Meta, I promise you can find on another platform or medium.

          You feeling like you’re not missing out on anything does not support your claim that it’s useless

          I just can’t take a person like you seriously for even one second

            You sound like an addict defending their drug of choice because it stops their shaking.

            Saying Facebook is useful for networking is like saying meth is useful for staying awake. Maybe technically true, but it ignores the costs of getting there. The reality is there are countless healthier ways of achieving your same objectives of using Facebook that doesn’t facilitate the enormous social costs associated with using their platform. Usefulness cannot be measured on one aspect alone. Or rather, something having one useful function does not make it useful when balanced against its cost. So yes, I still argue that Facebook is utterly useless, whether you take me seriously or not.

              Frankly you seem like a myopic imbecile and I wouldn’t trust your opinion on tying a shoelace
