No, but many (most?) people are. So many of "those who have never stepped foot on the platform yet are still hesitant" may well have gotten much of their hesitancy from people who are on Facebook and got much of it from there.

Actually most people aren't. There's like 8 billion people in the world and 2-3 billion people on FB. That means those on FB are a minority.

True, thanks for the perspective.

Then again, among this crowd here... I think most people I know are. You?

Most people I know are not and left it a few years back during the first exodus. 1/3 of Americans are not on FB.

Wow, cool. I'm guessing the proportion on FB is higher here in Europe, and thought it would be even higher in the US.
