Mad at meta?

Open your Instagram or Facebook app

Yeah, keep on using facebook and twitter, I'm sure they'll be pissed.

What a joke of an article.

Keep using fuck book, just change some settings and maybe block some things in your browser. They even advise "turn off location access for meta apps" and "disable your phone's advertising ID", like those make any difference (apps can still infer location from IP address and nearby wifi and Bluetooth devices). Never mind how the back ends can associate all sorts of other data to determine your location.

I've never had a Facebook account, I've never even been on the website, yet Zucktard has a profile on me. And I've blocked scripts in my browsers since 2005.

The suggestions in this article won't do anything, and give a false sense of making a difference.

Everyone keeps posting this kind of stuff, but offers no viable alternative for a local social media platform. I'm a musician and rely on these platforms to promote events and music. There are no viable alternatives at this point.

I like the idea of decentralized sites, but no one is on them right now.
