Is it ironic that complaining about Facebook on Facebook is not ironic?
Edit: Actually, I misread your last sentence. It still isn't ironic, unless you were trying to teach someone what irony was and that was your example of irony.
- It would be ironic to complain about a less famously terrible social network on said social network
- It wouldn't be ironic with Facebook because it's popular opinion that Facebook is terrible and that its users are prone to complaining on Facebook
- It would be ironic that it's not ironic to complain on Facebook about Facebook on Facebook because complaining about X social network on X social network would be ironic
Only if you had just come into this knowledge for the first time, and only up until now having believed that complaining about Facebook on Facebook is the epitome of irony.
