A month or 2 ago this was reported that it was going to happen. The internal circulation shows that those with less than optimal performance are being fired. So much for the Woke ideology they evangelized people with!!

                      While we trust Tech companies with our personal data, to be faithful and honest, look at how they are treating thier own hardworking employes. This shows these companies cannot be trusted, they only care about money and money and money, high time we boycott or replace them for good.

                          Anonymous, 10 Nov 2022As much as I despise Suckerberg.... Facebook and Instagr... moreThe Instagram ads are good and pretty well targeted actually for me as a consumer, not sure for the businesses. On the other hand the FB one is horrible and now throwing stuff that i don't even wanna see on my feed that i hardly go there anymore. They really should keep our feed clean and only for contacts while they place ads on the side, at least for the desktop.

                                Facebook for years has been in decline, and rightly so, it is a swamp, its horrid and its a mess, and suckerburg, its your own fault, you cant blame apple for you turning a useful platform into data mining, ad infested cesspit of hatred, greed begets greed, its also a platform for the older generation that isnt used as much by teens and under 30s, i dumped my facebook account proper about 6 months ago and it was the best decision, although i did re-open a temporary one to use marketplace

                                  i couldn't care less. because i dont have facebook🤣🤣

                                    Zuckerberg or detter Zucker-abyss is such a megalomaniac despotic idiot. His meta-shit is a big failure and since he has no respect for the privacy rights of his users they run away to even more idiotic providers like TikTok, which send all data directly to Chinese state servers.
                                    Brave new world...!!!

                                        I bet, he wud still want those 11,000 employees to use his meta applications even after terminating their employment.
