Reports say Facebook users aren’t posting as many personal updates

07 April, 2016
I don’t know about you, but lately my Facebook feed has been nothing but re-shared memes, videos, and click-bait articles. Facebook has been so focused on selling its platform for companies and organizations to advertise on, that users feel overwhelmed with all the irrelevant content that appears on their feeds and don’t even find it worth sharing personal updates anymore.

                Feeling exactly the same, FB is now becoming more like an old album rather than fresh thoughts

                    gsma is only coding the location network gateway but not the subnets for that network... so if your on the same network you will have the same coded location...
                    to know more about network and its subnets try learning more about Cisco...

                      yep, stop using facebook since 2012.

                        Those posts coming from the same person, and the same location...gave me a good smile :D
                        Back on topic. Facebook has been all about the stuff you said in the article, yes...true. As a user of most networks, i can tell you that i and many of my same-aged people are getting bored of FB, and getting more open to Snapchat, because of how open it is to our close friends. We can make a direct post about something we really want to share, but want to disappear after a certain amount of time (and we also know who seen it). Snapchat is the network that will get even bigger, and Facebook has no power to do anything against it...well, they can try to buy it for like $25b. maybe? :D What's the worth of Snapchat atm? :D

                          Yes, it happens to me also. This recent years I mainly share photos, news, articles, or memes from pages I like on FB. My personal posts usually goes on other social medias like Path, Instagram, or Twitter which I linked into FB. Kinda miss the old times when I actively post something on FB.

                            You all have the same embedded location. I don't know who anybody is anymore. :P

                              I use Google+ way more than facebook. Fb is all bs and im getting tired of it.

                                Maybe Facebook should work with Snapchat and other social platforms to bring people back to sharing more personal stuff. Maybe help refine Facebook and tell the world what its about. I mean sure, things like the memes are cool and things reshape over the years, but a little guidance and a little less of the advertising (that becomes overwhelming) will help.

                                    Because Facebook had become an bloated heap of a cesspool, hence people don't even bother using it anymore. Most are now on Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat.

                                      I updated mine last night; the previous time I did a personal update was about 5 months ago.
                                      Like you said, Ricky, FB is now filled with "re-shared memes, videos, and click-bait articles".
