It is probably a mix of people who got nowhere else to interact with people, and people using Groups. Facebook was where you'd go to talk to all your friends and family, most of my friends have been getting shadowbanned since 2012 ~ so it made me use it less. I got auto striked on my account for making a meme joke about burning a house down due to a giant spider in a video. I appealed, and it got denied. I'm not using a platform that will inadvertently ban me by AI. But the people actually posting to kill others, and actually burn shit down, and bots stay just fine?

Plus I didn't want to risk my employers Facebook App being in limbo if I got banned, so I left Facebook alone, never to return.

Facebook trying to police the world is the only thing keeping me away, if I can use the platform and post meme comments again, maybe I might reconsider, but I doubt it. Reddit is in a similar boat. You can get banned, but all the creepy pedophile comments from decades and recently are still up no problem.

That kind of burning down is classified as "mostly peaceful" by mainstream and AI.
