Yep, that was the turn-off for me too. I only use Twitter and Facebook in a browser, even on mobile—I noticed serious battery life improvements upon uninstalling the Facebook app in particular.

A nice website goes a long way for something text-based. You want to capture the lurking top of the funnel that reads without being logged in.

My thoughts too. I don’t need more apps

Especially another facebook app. Those in the category of "app only heavy social media consumers" have been addicted to tiktok for too long already. Any offering less than that by the place they left is not good enough.

And those like myself who are no longer interested in the current iteration of social apps do not need another offering from this iteration of social apps.

that was the reaction from more than a few friends and family I mentioned it to.
