Btw I have wondered for a long time why search on Facebook is such an atrocious mess. But then it struck me: it must be intentional, so you would spend more time scrolling feeds to find that one post you've missed.

For this alone they deserve to be dethroned and forgotten.

Remember the ”dumb fscks” quote? Facebook was founded to be hostile towards its users.

It was a while ago that this happened, so there's a possibility that some people on here are too young to remember this. It was a leaked exchange between Mark Zuckerberg and a friend during the very early days of Facebook - when it was only available to Harvard students:

Mark Zuckerberg : Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard

MZ: Just ask.

MZ: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS

[Redacted Friend's Name]: What? How'd you manage that one?

MZ: People just submitted it.

MZ: I don't know why.

MZ: They "trust me"

MZ: Dumb fucks.

I actually still remember when my university was added to Facebook - I was studying/procrastinating for my final exams.
