During testimony at Meta’s antitrust trial, the Facebook founder’s argument was, in so many words, that platforms like his are not what they used to be.
You actually can nearly do that. Facebook inexplicably showed me how a few weeks ago. If a friend reshares something, you’ll see it, but it removes all groups, etc. It was stunning how little content actually comes from friends.
On the Facebook site (I’m sure it can be done via app, too, but I didn’t look), click on the menu near the top right, then click Feeds (under Social). Then click on Friends on the left.
It’s such an easy fix too. Create a separate wall that only contains your friends’ OC (not reshared garbage).
It’s about 3 posts per day for someone with 200 friends, but I’d take it.
So… original, unshittified Facebook?
Too late for that. We have TikTok now. Everyone needs a new dopamine hit every 3 seconds and god forbid you run out of new things in your feed.
The era of social media IS over. Even if you make a good one.

Wow, is does. Thanks for that
