Today I posted a picture of a stamp with an animal in it and they said the picture contained nudity and made me take it down, but I reported a photo of a guy with a fully visible swastika tattoo and they said that’s fine.
I’d like to start a Lemmy community with photos of stuff that they refuse to remove called FacebookSaysItsFine.
Ugh. I would love to stop using it but I need it for school. My college regularly posts information on Facebook groups instead of its own websites and I need Messenger for communication/group work in college.
That would compel me to switch schools
That’s impossible to avoid actually. That’s how all colleges in my country work and generally that’s how life works. Facebook is massive here and Messenger is the most popular instant messaging app among the youth.
Well now I’m very curious: what country are you in?
I’m in South East Asia (won’t reveal more for privacy reasons). Facebook is really popular here.
That’s concerning. Do people seem bothered by this?
No, no one cares. I’m the weird/paranoid one for being weary of data collection by tech companies.
WhatsApp is massive in Asia, except China. They have Wechat over there.
Not the person you’re talking to but I’m in the UK and went back to uni as an adult in 2018. Literally had to install Messenger because it was the only thing the kids used, for the entire duration of our degree. Completely blew my mind!
