Wow, Facebook is just about DOA [View all]

Didn’t take long to become the troll farm it was when I last gave up on it. Now every news article has a comment section filled with RW rants and the push bots are throwing Joe Rogan, Kirk, Musk etc . . .

I think Zuck made his choice, and I'm going to make mine. I think the app is dead to me again. Shame as it was much improved over the last 4 years.
