If your problem is with ethics, FB isn’t a beacon of good behavior.
If your problem is getting rate-limited or losing your blue checkmark, I guess go wild, but you probably already loved Twitter too much to leave.
Which is a direct result of Musk deciding to prioritise blue check comments over others. If you're having to pay to have people listen to you then that means you typically don't have something worth saying.
And we see this manifest in many ways e.g. pages of laughing emojis in response to a tweet.
This basically invalidates all of advertising in one stroke.
And then there is the “Play this one stupid game that has everyone hooked!!!” With an unrelated picture. Or “This guy became a millionaire in ONE day!1!” type of advertising.
Of course advertising is not worth it for the target. It's harmful more often than not.
The problem is that there’s so much noise that it fails at that. So I end up not using it when I don’t already know something is going on.
I guess the biggest difference is that Facebook has had almost 10 years to adjust the algorithm towards paid content, and have users becoming accustomed to the system.
That's a lie.
Instead, "Facebook realized that users were growing wary of misleading teaser headlines, and the company recalibrated its algorithm in 2014 and 2015 to downgrade clickbait and focus on new metrics, such as the amount of time a user spent reading a story or watching a video, and incorporating surveys on what content users found most valuable"
For companies that were depending on the organic reach of their clickbaity or low quality posts for their advertising, this had the effect of forcing them to pay to get that same reach. But it wasn't in any way that facebook was prioritizing paid over organic content.
Feel free to provide a source that show a decrease in advertisements on Facebook.
A well-run internet service tries not to keep causing self-inflicted PR disasters. A well-run service is stable, consistently available, doesn't have a large amount of feature churn, and generally has stable leadership making sane decisions about maximising value. None of those things describe Twitter under Musk, but Facebook is a generally well-run company with sound policies and competent leadership.
Just because people here disagree with many of Facebook's decisions doesn't make them any less good. I may think that the focus on VR is a strategic mistake, or that Facebook has a PR problem, but generally they're good stewards of the platform they've created and run it fairly well.
I think that statement is being incorrectly reduced/interpreted to 'mind your own business' which would be ironic.
In my defense, I said "we" and not "you" for a reason. Also the point I was attempting to make was less "stop doing that" and more "that way madness lies"
FB always had this tendency of rate limiting (showing an annoying sign up modal and then eventually silently failing due to HTTP 429 ajax requests- seemingly IP rate limiting). It also seems to not allow viewing of otherwise public info based on user agent (mobile vs desktop)
A lot of the prominent accounts seem to be moving. It may be because they want a general public square rather than Elons personal website. It may be because they are worried that the rate limiting etc is going to affect what they do to monitor their reach, understand their audience etc.
Either way I don't think their problems fall into any of the categories you've given exactly, but if the people someone likes to follow on twitter move to threads, the likelihood is that person will move to threads, especially if they are somewhat dissatisfied because the app is becoming weird and stuffed with ads.
