Facebook. I never willingly go on it, but my friends all use it for events and shit. It’s funny hanging out with them and having someone mention things from a group chat I’ve never even touched. I absolutely refuse to install that fucking malware they call Messenger.
Other than that, anything Google. Have to use it all for work.
So many small businesses have a Facebook page and no website which is quite frustrating too. I just want to see your hours, why did I need to sign up to another website to do that?
Google Maps is normally good for hours if they actually have a physical location.
I’ve recently been trying to de-Google my life. I used to be all in on them, but they’ve changed and so have I.
And yea Facebook sucks, but it’s how I can keep some semblance of social interaction by lurking what other people are doing. 😭
I finally converted my friends over to discord a few years ago, and even then I'm looking to move off of discord. But it was like pulling teeth getting them to leave messenger
I told myself I would never install it until it became the only option for keeping in touch with a girl I like. But hey as long a that's all I use it for, they can't glean that much info from me, right? Right?
