For some strange reason I don't get the new things they added, yet all my friends are bitching about it. I saw it on my girlfriend's account and to be honest, I don't see why people get so upset to the point where they type long all-caps posts on Facebook. :\
I guess it might be annoying that they keep changing things, but then again... it's Facebook. Who cares what happens on Facebook?
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
This time I think all the changes were for the better.
Besides, it's a free service that I don't have to use if I don't want to. being angry is silly.
The only thing that kind of annoyed me was I couldn't just see my recent stories, but it seems they fixed that, or it was always like that and I'm just kinda dumb.
The Stalkerbox is a little weird, but other than that I dig it.
They removed the ability to sort incoming posts by chronological order, which I thought was pretty much the most useful button they had.
Now everything is auto-sorted, as well as auto-prioritized by Facebook, and I can't say that I like it much.
Not that I bother going on frequently enough to really get worked up about it. But I do wonder what prompted them to ditch a system everyone seemed to like for one that ninety five percent of their users seem to hate.
My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.
He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
Hey guys remember Google+ that was great for five minutes wasn't it
there was a picture here
As soon as Facebook changed, the complaints started pouring in. It's smurfing ridiculous. I'm generally semi-lenient about what people post (no I'm not) but this is smurfing annoying.
And I still like g+ and find it to be quite active. All of the people making jokes about how g+ is dead clearly have no friends.
Alternatively, all their friends never migrated to G+ (or they did and then gave up and moved back). *shrug* But it would be silly to assume a social networking site is dead because of your own personal social networking experience on said site.
I must concede that I rather enjoyed the "Hey guys, we heard you like Facebook so we put Facebook in the upper right of your Facebook so you can Facebook while you Facebook" thing someone put up. Not the image, but the general statement. Beyond that, I agree that the change is annoying but the plethora of people stating it's annoying is also annoying. Still, this is the only realistic way to file a complaint to Facebook these days. Rant about it on Facebook. Weird but probably true. Will the complaints cause change? I have no idea. Probably not. Oh well. I just wish I could have it in chronological order again. =|
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
The only thing more annoying than the change (which I am okay with since it's now displaying things in chronological order again) is people bitching about people bitching about the change. By doing so they are adding to their problem
I don't think I have the change yet, at least I didn't last time I checked. I posted about it the other day-- "AM I BLIND?"-- and I got some comments saying it was a rollout so I guess I'll get it eventually.
So I have no idea what it looks like xD
And I still use G+ :o I use it more than Facebook, actually. Really the only reason I use Facebook anymore is to keep up with my mom and sisters now that I've moved away and am in a different state.
Yeah, facebook does all of their updates like that. Usually I'm among the last to get them, but I got it early!
I don't like it. I don't like the mini Facebook on the upper right. I miss my old news feed.
I dislike G+ - was around since beta and didn't care for it. For the reason that it's basically facebook (now), but uglier
fb needs to do one more thing - those stupid updates with the pictures and with the 'see most recent updates' don't really affect me (protip - toggle language)
What I want to do is to hide a friend's post from other friends. If Julian comes in and blurts out 'HEY GAISE PG GOT LAID' I don't need my work friends reading that crap.
(I would hide his post from everybody except himself and myself)
But that option isn't available. So my only option is to delete that crap. Eff that.
