If so, why? The app is pure cancer, and I can’t seem to find one actual use for it other platforms don’t do better. Even RCS/iMessage are better than Messenger.

    Everyone I like still uses messenger. And a local support group I’m part of is on Facebook. I also use it to check for local updates especially during bad storms. Besides that I don’t touch it because my feed is 10% my relatives posting the dumbest shit anyone’s ever come up with and 90% sponsored/suggested shit that’s just thirst traps and rage bait.

      I forgot the emergency updates. My gf will send me links of that stuff well before it ever hits the news, if it even makes the actual news.

      Like I mentioned in my comment, I think that it still has a huge user base and it’s free makes it still be the default tool for casting a quick message to the most people for free.
