The text fringing can be an issue, but the benefits of OLED more than make up for it. Going from IPS to OLED was a step-function improvement, like upgrading from a HDD to SSD.

it's okay to complain about facebook and ask it to be better, but look at the situation we're in. people are claiming zuckerberg is responsible for the capitol insurrection and the genocide in Myanmar. we've reached full-on hysteria at this point, facebook derangement syndrome is real.
Re:Statement from Mark Zuckerberg on Tuesday October 05, 2021 @09:20PM (#28767994)
the reality is that people would stop using facebook if they really hated it that much, and yet it still has 2.5 billion MAUs. there's a very loud minority of people who keep screaming "facebook bad!" because the NYT told them to (because facebook is eating their lunch). facebook doesn't inject your brain with foreign chemicals, it doesn't hold a gun to your head and force you to scroll through your timeline. don't like using facebook? close your fucking web browser.

it's usually because the bodega thief is waving a gun around and threatening to kill someone, while the library thief isn't.
