What is Facebook these days? My grandma spends all day on it, she hardly speaks...just swiping...when I sneak a peek, it's just chain-mail-like bullshit one after the other with a few disguised ads for things she can't afford in between...ugh :vomit:

I remember describing to my mom what Facebook was becoming back in like 2013/14 and she goes "Huh, sounds like what happened with email."

The service went from useful communication to social media style chain forwarding nonsense pretty quickly, and they went the same way with FB.
