Weirdly I opened Facebook first this morning (as opposed to often never) becoz of a dream I had about someone I went to primary school with.
CaptainHightower
I only know it was down because of all the memes.
gheorghiumihai77
Does anyone has FB stonks?
CanadaDryGingerMale
“Did you hear? Facebook! Instagram! WhatsApp! They’re all DOWN!”
thisisausernamelikeanyothersbutthisonesmellsweird
i watched porn instead..
IJustReallyLikeFrogs
Noticed because I use the messenger app to communicate with my dad.
dancingbarefootonlego
Damn I never would have known if I hadn’t logged into Imgur just now…
MailbornJenkins
I use Facebook to keep in touch and coordinate with my D2 playing friends...one of which is buildng me a PC.
RonSwanSong

YourFellowMan
Facebook isn’t working?
license2kilt
Nyayoco
I was asleep so yes
LiarLiarPantsUntier
I really don’t have anything better to do than browsing Imgur, Facebook, etc. besides raising my kids. Really don’t.
noonehasthisoneyet
Saw more Facebook related news than political ones for the first time yesterday. I guess that’s a bit better?
Gaelig
exactly.
MarkySpaceMagnet
Yep, I remember being irritated that FB was slow loading, but never thought past that.
Lastcentura
I didn't notice because it happened around 3am here in Australia
NotTinyPancakes
Yep wasn't important time for me as a kiwi either I go bed in the morning only found out about it from discord posts, didn't effect me none
tred1975
Facebook was down?
DigiT00l
For like 7 hours
tred1975
I don’t use it maybe that’s why I missed it
3smagic
I left FB after my mom died. Didn't make sense anymore. I am more careful about what I allow in my life now.
3smagic
2- We gripe about stuff on Imgur, sure, but I've never been outright attacked or made to feel "less".
MrHailstone
I noticed WhatsApp didnt work. Havent used Facebook in many many years. But people are stupid everywhere not only on Facebook
weaselodoom
Deleting facebook off my phone was the best thing i did 8 years ago
StankPitSara
I left FB when my kid graduated HS. I was only on to keep up to date with their school. Pissed a lot of family off, it's been nice n quiet
leigh3030
I never had Facebook it's been lovely. My dad had one to keep touch with my brother when he was overseas, soon as he came home he deleted it
thepronouncer
wopoetry
I got FB when I was at university, locked it when a person started stalking my friend group and I contacted police.
TheSongofRiver
I'm on facebook cause I manage a paper light box group. And I'm on a dollhouse group to see the crafts and get inspiration. I'm not there
TheSongofRiver
for family or to place life updates. I also use it as a picture storage
StankPitSara
Nothing wrong with that, and that sounds awesome. My family are toxic, and made FB horrible.
TheSongofRiver
My family is a mix between: 'keeping up appearances, certified insane, racists and no health. The only nice ones are the 'no health' ones.
TheSongofRiver
So I get the feeling. I have a big family, mom and dad both come from a family with 8 kids and most of them got kids and grandkids now.
NotTinyPancakes
I stopped using it years ago too many people I cared about died or move don without me, it's a graveyard of memorials and old wounds
blumpk1npie
I only keep it so I can contact people in other countries if I lose their number
BabyFarkMcGeeZax
Anyone have the source of this gif? Steve Nash I'm assuming.
CogPrimus
Steve Nash during the Olympics in Vancouver. A pillar was supposed to raise, but failed to do so. So he's just standing there awkwardly.
BabyFarkMcGeeZax
Thank you so much!
bog015
Does no one fucking use WhatsApp?
ImKindaDone
Not really.
davebeastly
I do for work.
Naramumu
I only knew Facebook is down from the news website I frequent... Am I old?
NotTinyPancakes
I only knew it was down from a friend complaining about it on Discord, didn't effect me none
Koga90
Facebook is mostly used by older people now, each new generation will always try to find their own space that's why IG and now TikTok exist.
TripleBeardedThunderChicken
Same here, and I’m 29. Kicked social media last year and literally didn’t know about the outage until late yesterday evening.
leigh3030
Same. Sometimes I comment here or YouTube that's about it.
leigh3030
Same. I'm 35. ? If that makes me old so be it.
Naramumu
I'm 39 ?
Whatdoyousaytoanicecupoftea
Nah...makes you young. Think the average age of FB is something like 45...
hoopsnek
Better shit to do... like posting on imgur.
CarlottaVonSprockett
Like literally anything lol
EyeseateaMan
30Jonseredi
Yeah. Better shit to do.
sillyDad
thisismysociallife
Facebook and Imgur really aren’t the same thing
DoctorGonzo37
I was napping
TwoFlower68
And Reddit
NotTinyPancakes
Exactly :D
eetsumkaus
yeah, says more about Facebook really
Noob3rts
Absolutely, I like the people here..for the most part.
911wasDigiornosnotDelivery
Go choke on a stale tot you animal.
drunkbs
We like you too, you piece of shit.
ItSeemsYouHaveSufferedaTerribleFate
These my peoples
MeanMisterClean
I envy you. I loathe at least 90% of y'all.
Noob3rts
That's not healthy, we're idiots and there ain't no reason to dwell on our idiocy.
zafner
Well, yes
Nathanyel
For example, yes.
ArtfullySane
To be fair that is a step up
in9119iwas
upvoting brings more satisfaction than posting
fowlersleftfoot
All these “guys I’m so so so so smart I don’t even have Facebook, aren’t I so cool” posts and comments…being posted on just another SM site
CarlottaVonSprockett
But really, guys I AM so so so smart I don’t even have Facebook, aren’t I so cool?
fowlersleftfoot
Cool would have been not making the same joke as somebody above an hour later.
CarlottaVonSprockett
But I just want you to know so much how cool I am!
roboticliquids
It's "not like other girls" of internet ?
davebeastly
They're the same people who say "I [insert popular thing/activity here] before it was cool."
MeanMisterClean
thankyou.gif So sick of that circle-jerk every time FB is mentioned
JustDontCare
1. Conversely, Facebook and Imgur are not the same KIND of social media, thus there is actually a difference to be noted.
JustDontCare
2. It's like saying "Hah, these fools saying they don't talk to snobs while they are here, talking to PEOPLE" Both groups are people.
JustDontCare
3. Facebook and Imgur both target your data and push ads, but the interconnection is far weaker and less personally affecting.
Grenateh
Luddite signaling got old like 20 years ago. Fuck these people. They don't have something better to do.
Grenateh
Those pretending they do come from a place of EXTREME privilege. I'm talking "I got divorced from my husband after 2 yrs and sold our house"
Grenateh
then moved in with my mom who's married to a rich guy, got a free job, then got remarried to a rich kid and our parents bought us a new one
Grenateh
. I have a wedding to deal with and I just graduated school." level of privilege.
Grenateh
Someone GAVE these people something else to do. It wasn't their accomplishment.
Gaelig
it just means not everyone is addicted to social networks. Which is a good thing, right?
fowlersleftfoot
Why is Facebook a sinful addiction but being here isn’t?
CarlottaVonSprockett
Lol “sinful”
Gaelig
it is not but spending alot of time on it can be interpreted as having no life.
fowlersleftfoot
Don’t disagree, it’s the Hypocrisy of the no lifers on here trying to mock the Facebook no lifers that I’m highlighting.
ArtisZ
Nice summary
Grenateh
These are the same douchebags who post shit on snapchat constantly, for example.
Illinifan88
I get your point, but imgur doesn't incite insurrections or make little girls want to kill themselves.
fowlersleftfoot
So the next Imgur post from some MAGA nut job or misogynistic trope you’ll be deleting this app, yeah?
sjester42
No, we downvote to make our dislike clear.
CarlottaVonSprockett
Why so angry? Are you secretly Mark Zuckerberg?
Illinifan88
Imgur doesn't force feed that to people already susceptible to it. Facebooks algorithms are why it is so dangerous.
ImKindaDone
Imgur is slightly less evil than Facebook and its evil demon spawn Instagram.
leigh3030
Yeah but this place is fun, FB sucks.
fistermatic5000
This place was fun 10 years ago.
leigh3030
I don't do much social media so it's still fun to me.
fowlersleftfoot
Each to their own. Just don’t act like being here instead of there makes you anything better.
Illinifan88
No one is saying that. People are pointing out the sins of Facebook itself, not its users.
leigh3030
Yeah people take these things too personal. I always hear about family drama on Facebook, never have to deal with that here!
scoutMoonDiver
It’s not an act.
Razor266
Lol, really dedicated to the bit.
fowlersleftfoot
I mean, your bio on here is the most Facebook shit I’ve ever read so maybe you should just be quiet
LazyLoes
I think that has to do with secret santa. Made me realize my bio is still the same for secret santa haha
fowlersleftfoot
the exact same fools who comment “who” on any post about a kardashian. You know who they are, we know you know, you’re impressing nobody
technicalfool
Big difference between knowing a name that's plastered everywhere, and being able to pick them out of a line-up. So uh... who?
fowlersleftfoot
Again, you’re impressing nobody.
NotTinyPancakes
I know who they are but if I saw one I couldn't tell you which one it was
MaximumMarks
Not even Kim?
NotTinyPancakes
I'd mistake her for one of her sisters but i'd recognize she was a Kardashian
DustyMcKnuckles
Its a bit easoer to see the best and worst in people on here tho. Everybody's got anonymity, so its like intrinsic carma. Still absolutely
DustyMcKnuckles
Social Media though, and subject to addiction, doom scrolling, lifeifestyle envy depression stuff.
MaximumMarks
Don't forget echo chambers and circle jerks.
DaveTBull
Yeah... go see 4chan and tell me the beat and worst outweigh each other lol
DustyMcKnuckles
4chan is an extreme. Like "weapons grade" social anxiety. Here, I was talking more like the pizza angels vs harassment trolls.
Feralkyn
Bro, I was one of those people, still have no idea who the fuck they are, never seen one, wouldn't care. You gotta remember there's a HUGE
Feralkyn
variety of people on here, and like... they ain't all American.
SarcasticComment
American checking in. I would have learned about them or Justin Bieber about 3 years later if it weren't for the imgur bitching
SarcasticComment
The people who vocally complain about them only increase their brand.
CockKnocker2000
How about not giving a shit one way or the other
awkwardbeautiful
I can recognize two. But honestly, no I could not identify or pick all of them from anyone else in a line up.
GodofGodzilla
Edgy
fowlersleftfoot
Ok.
scoutMoonDiver
Who?

I didn't know there was an outage till this morning. My evening was grill supper, walk with my dog, do some laundry, play with dog, play ..
bound4doom
guitar for about 2 hours, sat down watched a little netflix and went to bed at a reasonable time.
fowlersleftfoot
Ok
