and the facebook app itself will just straight-up lie in the notifications. "you have 1 new message and 9 notifications", then the number of notifications increases by one every 12 hours or so

when you open the app, there are no notifications and no messages. except maybe "do you know <some person you've never heard of>"

Lol if you've ever installed an app made by Facebook even once. They purposefully broke the mobile website recently to try to force people onto their apps.

It's not essential because there's an app called Friendly that's much better in every possible way. But also no one close to my age uses Facebook for communication anymore anyway, especially in the last year.

yes facebook is used for promoting events, thats not exactly a controversial stance and a weird one for tori to oppose.

maybe not chic clubs or whatever but pretty much every beer and wine tasting festival and other things that facebook-era people do is on there.

welp anyway where i live it's the defacto way to talk to someone or group chat, probably coz virtually everyone has a facebook and so boom ready to communicate. don't need to share phone number or join another platform

wasn't talking about making facebook events although that's still totally a thing
