Given that #Facebook seems to think their users enjoy getting more monthly bills piled on them, it seems a great time to promote quitting Facebook for good. I did.

An article (https://jonathanhaidt.substack.com/p/social-media-mental-illness-epidemic) worth reading from Jonathan Haidt, about social media being the major cause of the mental illness in teen girls. Well, the cause is most measurable in teen girls, social media is also bad for other genders and age groups. I am thankful that this article is published.

In 2016 I started working on Quiet (https://5am.is/quiet/), it started out as a way to block social media websites in Safari. Because I saw the need for it, for myself, but also for other people.

Left Facebook in 2016. Was not going to sit there and listen to more Cheeto Fuhrer BS.

Left Twitter in November of 2022, pretty much the day the Cheeto Fuhrer got reinstated.

Apparently, February 9th, 2023 is the day I uninstall Instagram.

@coleens_ Where’s the I don’t give a hoot about the other social media platforms.

@Aakerbeere Böhmermann hat im Podcast drauf hingewiesen und da hatte ich mal wieder Lust hier mitzumachen.

Ich war aber vor ein paar Jahren schonmal hier, da war mir aber noch zu wenig los.

Mit dem Fediverse bin ich das erste Mal durch Diaspora in Berührung gekommen in einer der damaligen #QuitFacebook Wellen, aber die scheinen ja jetzt irgendwie ihr eigenes Ding zu machen.

A long time ago I saw a post about someone who was quitting Facebook and had a bunch of statuses queued up for the weeks/months ahead of quitting. Each post highlighted shady things Facebook had done and reasons to quit.l, as well as decentralised alternatives to the platform.

I want to follow suit now but I can't find that post any more.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? The things the author highlighted were really interesting. Thanks

I was announcing #QuitSocialMedia and made posts saying how to stay in contact with me. Any other studies or reasons to give to my friends that remain on the platform?

Can someone find me the episode number, or original source, I recall #Adam in the last few weeks on the #NoAgenda podcast referencing an increase in hospital emergency admissions relating to mental health (and university councilors) among (current) Generation Z(?) students.

@kubikpixel Such truth! But let's keep in mind that the real fault of this disaster is not only Mark Zuckerberg but the people who still have their profiles on FB. There are so many discussions all around and everybody it's hard to believe that people are not aware of the impact of social networks in general. Let's start from ourselves, #quitfacebook!

Je ne sais pas s'il y a des communicants ou des graphistes qui veulent se saisir de cette affaire, mais il y a une belle occasion de faire savoir qu'il y a d'autres lieux bien plus respectueux de la liberté d'expression que FaceDeBouc et ses petits.
