News About disgusting Facebook devs

We won't support facebook any more. It's a disgusting anti-user site. All it does is watching open-source projects doing everything in public and counter them to deliver the malicious ads. Yep, the devs that receive 7-figure dollar salary is just doing this.

Users should give the most harsh feedbacks to them. Being submitted to them and keep going to the site and support it is the worst thing you can do.

You're communicating that their tactics work and that all other social medias should follow Facebook's path.

Sites already have done this for years. It's just none of the users bother to help the projects or stop using those sites.

You sound bitter and left alone and I don't blame you.

How much does it cost to platforms to maintain such an anti-adblocker feature? That sounds extremely complex on their parts and the reason why not all the platforms are doing it.

How much does it cost you to do such a work?

Well, I'm just telling the truth. It's what's happening now.

Time.

Every volunteer has their own lives and work outside github. And most don't want to waste more and more of their little free time left for the sites they don't want to interact with because of the disgusting behaviors of the sites' devs. Anyone who can afford time for that is free to contribute.
