Isn't that the usual cycle of adoption of a new trend according the merchant of cool ?
Though I remember differently, 10 years ago some of us were warning against facebook as the major privacy concern it was and due to their spam techniques to capture new victims.
10 years ago having a FB account was cool. Once everyone was on FB then saying you'd deleted your account and gone off the grid was cool and all the people still using it were sheep. Now it's cool to say you're still using it and that everyone who deleted their account is a jerk for mentioning it.
We're just going around in circles.
It's a useful tool, a time pit for others but being critical of someone because they do/don't use it is pretty weak.
