and if they find or know a way to sell that with the other data colleted from you, they will proudly do it


Fediverse alternative to Facebook’s Marketplace


Discord does this for logging in from different places a lot which is bonkers to me how many people dont care about it, it doesnt even matter if you have TOTP 2FA activated, they still try to gaslight the need for phone number is for “security”


same happened with me then a few other friends which made it easier to convince them to leave Facebook


afaik Friendica is the closest to Facebook usage among Fediverse platforms, im not aware of new features on Facebook since I quit it a few years ago but for ordinary people i only think to be missing games i know some people used (do they still?) to play to get “achievements” which they could share they got it, i’d usually see it more often from farming or guitar hero-like games, other than that they have plenty of stuff that you won’t find in other Fediverse platforms but its also not a platform where you’ll find general instances with as many people as in Lemmy/Mastodon/Pixelfed general instances but since you are willing to host for yourself and your friends it might be worth it, you can even have your own RSS feeds within Friendica and browse posts from other platforms outside the Fediverse, you can check the features list on friendi.ca/about/features
also helps feed their mass surveillance
