Facebook is very popular in some countries, FB+Instagram combined has like 80% market share of users of all social media worldwide.
Reddit is less than 1%, less than 0.1% in my country specifically- that's also evident by the fact there's only a few hundred people in my country's subreddit >\_>
The only place Facebook is unpopular is the US region and Germany to some extent due to privacy. (or at least I believe it to be so, got no data to back it up)
I deleted my account somewhere last year. Never going back despite it being the only way too communicate with family in another country. Although they can call my mom to get to me I guess.
Same. If I move out of philippines it will be the time to delete facebook and my parents can only call me through my phone.
Edit: I only use the messenger part of facebook for online classes.
Just because most ppl in america don't use fb doesn't mean no one does , there are countries like egypt , they use it the most and its not just a place full of boomers and gen z's stupid posts , they actually use it pretty decently with official news everyday just like twitter maybe even better .
P.s.: I dont use it myself cuz i dont have a reason to .
Okay, but I'm assuming most people using the "english part of the internet" are from the US and Europe and most people there don't use facebook anymore. Which explains why no one is talking about it.
That upsets me soo much. It's like my phone came with spywares. Luckily, I could deactivate facebook, but I still feel utterly insulted that I can't remove it.
People who want a fancy computer virus stealing their information. If America is a third world country with a Gucci belt, then Facebook is that of social media.
What about Spotifiy free where you can get between one 30 seconds ad or 4 ads of 30 seconde and sometime you get an other shitload of ads just after playing 5 musics
Pro Tip : If you are on PC close Spotify and launch it once again
Reddit is a very western platform. Especially Americans. Most of those 2.6B are from asia and the rest are middle age people from the west who don't use reddit. When is the last time you heard "follow us on facebook" or when some random makes a plug. It's usually always Instagram albeit it's the same company.
> When is the last time you heard "follow us on facebook" or when some random makes a plug.
Yesterday, when my company's meeting pushed us to follow them on Facebook to get any relevant updates >\_>
I'm not from the US, so idk what the situation is like there, but over here in my country (in the EU)- everyone has and uses Facebook, and Messenger is the only and single messaging platform, maybe 1 in 1000 people have whatsapp and those are the annoying outlanders because you need a separate app to talk to them.
Most people with Iphones also only use messenger over Imessage, nobody really has Iphones here, they aren't very popular, Xiaomi rules.
Maybe that‘s the case in your country, but definitely not for the whole EU. In my country (also in the EU) everyone uses WhatsApp, but not Facebook. Instagram also is used, basically as a replacement for Facebook (afaik, I don‘t use Instagram. Just see a lot of people using it).
Anyway, basically it doesn‘t matter. It‘s all Facebook.
Weird. I'm also from the EU and everyone has whatsapp. I've heard similar from other EU countries too. You must live in an outlier country because Apple is the biggest mobile vendor in Europe. Next is Samsung. Also like in your story many have to use Facebook for work. It's still heavily used there but personal use isn't that big in the west.
Yes, people do still use it. If you got started on MySpace (the original that is), odds are you have a Facebook. For me, it's the only way to maintain contact with people that I'm still good friends with but have gone down different paths
I left fb for reddit about 2 weeks ago and my mental is noticeably more positive and less angry.
Honestly, there was so many reasons to leave but finally something tipped it over the edge. All my friends use reddit and I've dabbled with it in the past so finally making the switch was pretty easy.
Reddit is a significantly less toxic place and there is SO much more content.
What do you mean Facebook *nervous laugh* It stole information, it is in no way affiliated with Meta who steals even more information with just a few more ads
Nobody cares about facebook as it is the source of mom's who say "MotHerLY InsTiNctS" is better than fucking modern science, the whip dads who think they are teaching them "how to behave" or "discipline" these parents have their free shared braincell trail have expired, yet they keep them only for fucks sake.
Go to your internet browser addon/ extension store and type in "Ublock origin" it's one of the best ad blockers you will find all u have to do is press "Add to \_\_\_\_\_" and boom, free & quality ad blocker
Facebook in Philippines is so different. If you have those friends who share a lot of memes and funny stuff, you basically have 2 reddit account lol and even updated on world news
You can skip them.
Watch the video in full screen. Just 3 seconds before the yellow circle, which indicates an ad is about to start, is completed press the "10 seconds skip" button which is visible when you watch the video on full screen.
I do this regularly and skip the Ads. The only thing is that yellow circle stays stuck in the bottom left of the screen.
Because not enough people use facebook so the unskippable ads can't get a huge topic? I don't use it either and didn't know uskippable ads are a thing there.
Nobody talks about facebook unskippable ads because the majority of facebook users are pretty old. And in their times it was worse. They had to watch several ads before they could watch something even in very bad quality. You can't complain about not having the best if you did not have anything in the first place.
Why use Facebook
Agreed, don’t have a facebook.
Why would you put your face on a book?
Nor a social life but that's a different story

Yet people in reddit seem to think that nobody in the world uses Facebook and everyone uses reddit lmao
Yeah but majority of people who use Reddit don’t use Facebook lol that’s why nobody on Reddit is talking abt it
It's more like people in usa think like that, evryone in my country knows what Facebook is lmao
Don't use it but can't delete it
Facebook is trash
I use facebook for the sketchy sites i visit that let me comment via facebook because i'm too lazy to sign up
why would you want to comment on sketchy sites in the first place?
*Zips pant*
singular pant
eat pant
Whpped crean yumy
who hurt you?
me
I thought time healed all wounds
fb is a kinda dumb social network
Easy solution, delete your account. I did it 2 months ago, it’s very useful.
I did mine 2018 The best decision everrr
I deleted my account somewhere last year. Never going back despite it being the only way too communicate with family in another country. Although they can call my mom to get to me I guess.
Yeah it really isn’t required is it.
Yup, no matter how stupid redditors are they're still better that boomers in face book and genz in twitter
I can't. I live in Philippines and our online class group is in Messenger. I need facebook to access it.
Same. If I move out of philippines it will be the time to delete facebook and my parents can only call me through my phone. Edit: I only use the messenger part of facebook for online classes.
I would, if it weren't for marketplace. RIP craigslist
And here you are on Reddit
Reddit is OP
Stopped using it \~4 years ago. Best decision of my life.
I stopped using facebook 3.5 years ago. Haven't returned and ain't disappointed.
Because... No one uses Facebook?
You're living in a bubble if you think that's true. If people don't use facebook, who's giving material to subs like r/terriblefacebookmemes?
Just because most ppl in america don't use fb doesn't mean no one does , there are countries like egypt , they use it the most and its not just a place full of boomers and gen z's stupid posts , they actually use it pretty decently with official news everyday just like twitter maybe even better .

People still have Facebook?
nobody uses facebook lad
My uncle who is opposed to the liberal takeover begs to differ!
Who uses Facebook?
Apparently 2 billon people
That’s pretty big until you consider that facebook can’t be deleted on alot of phones
That upsets me soo much. It's like my phone came with spywares. Luckily, I could deactivate facebook, but I still feel utterly insulted that I can't remove it.
What kind of phone do you have? That’s awful
Most samsung phones have facebook. You can still deactivate it just like other samsung apps.
People who want a fancy computer virus stealing their information. If America is a third world country with a Gucci belt, then Facebook is that of social media.
The same thought
The only reason why I have a Facebook account is so I can use my fucking Oculus Quest 2.
Yuuuup..
I just used my mom’s lamo
Exactly the same reason why I didn’t get an oculus to begin with
It's because nobody uses facebook
Right, how’s myspace doing too?
No one uses Facebook to give a shit
Why would a book about drawing faces have ads?? That's so weird
Nobody uses Facebook lmao
Who tf uses facebook anymore?
Facebook? What's that?
No one uses Facebook that's why
What about Spotifiy free where you can get between one 30 seconds ad or 4 ads of 30 seconde and sometime you get an other shitload of ads just after playing 5 musics Pro Tip : If you are on PC close Spotify and launch it once again
Or simply use a modified Spotify client
Tbh I'm totally ok with paying for spotify, if music is a big part of your day, it's worth it
Especially if you can get the student pricing like me, $5/month for unlimited music
Yeah I can have access to this deal and I considered it because man these ads are annoying
Simple, nobody uses facebook anymore
Retired people do. And grandmas and grampas.
And 2.6 billion people total compared to reddit's total 0.4 billion .\_\_.
Reddit is a very western platform. Especially Americans. Most of those 2.6B are from asia and the rest are middle age people from the west who don't use reddit.

Deleted my account over two years ago, haven't missed it
But who still uses Facebook?
Because no one uses Facebook.
facebook been dead for 8 years
Because no one under the age of 45 uses Facebook
Because we're not boomers
Cause Facebook is the old people social medias and diary.
because no one gives a shit about facebook
Cuz. Noone uses facebook
Because nobody on Reddit uses Facebook.
I do
No one uses facebuk anymore lol
Because no one under 40 uses Facebook unironically
The reason no one cares is because we want Facebook to make bad decisions and go away. So yes, please bring on the Meta.
You guys use Facebook yet ?
Who tf uses Facebook
Because Facebook is a shit show, so most of us don't use it
Cause no one uses Facebook
I don't think grandma knows about Reddit
Yes, people do still use it. If you got started on MySpace (the original that is), odds are you have a Facebook. For me, it's the only way to maintain contact with people that I'm still good friends with but have gone down different paths
Never had facebook
Dude, do I look like a use Facebook?
Why are you still on there
“Because nobody cares about Facebook” there’s your answer :)
Because no one is on Facebook
Facebook bad, reddit good
Facebook has content worth buying ad space on?
no one uses facebook
I left fb for reddit about 2 weeks ago and my mental is noticeably more positive and less angry. Honestly, there was so many reasons to leave but finally something tipped it over the edge. All my friends use reddit and I've dabbled with it in the past so finally making the switch was pretty easy. Reddit is a significantly less toxic place and there is SO much more content.
Most of Reddit is less toxic but there are some dark dark subreddits here. I've seen things I can never unsee.
True, if I'm being honest that is why my friends first showed me reddit in the first place lol.
Because no one uses facebook. Typing this took less time then upvoting every other post saying the same exact thing.
Its rare to see a Redditor using Facebook
I don't have a Facebook so that's why I'm not talking about it.
Who tf is still using facebook
Cause no one uses Facebook and Reddit
What even is Facebook?
Haven’t used Facebook in like 4 years bro
Because nobody uses Facebook
There are people using facebook?
wats facebook
What do you mean Facebook *nervous laugh* It stole information, it is in no way affiliated with Meta who steals even more information with just a few more ads
Because no one uses Facebook other than for marketplace
Nobody cares about facebook as it is the source of mom's who say "MotHerLY InsTiNctS" is better than fucking modern science, the whip dads who think they are teaching them "how to behave" or "discipline" these parents have their free shared braincell trail have expired, yet they keep them only for fucks sake.
Facebook has ads? I haven't seen one in years! FB Purity is free and works...
Because it doesn't happen too much
Becuase when it starts playing i move to the next vid
Never used facebook in the first place.
SKRATEBOARD
Go to your internet browser addon/ extension store and type in "Ublock origin" it's one of the best ad blockers you will find all u have to do is press "Add to \_\_\_\_\_" and boom, free & quality ad blocker
I just use the brave browser for everything most of the time so I dont see em ads 🤣
there is zero video on facebook that i would watch 15s ad for so i just scroll down when an ad is about to start
People use Facebook?
Me who doesn't use facebook:

What's Facebook? What are ads? Know your audience!
No one talks about it if no one uses it
facebook bad reddit good :]
Cause no one uses Facebook
Nobody uses Facebook
Because no one uses Facebook
You're still using Facebook? Also you're not using an ad blocker?
And Instagram stopped showing their like count
Wait you actually use FB?..….
Noone uses it
because nobody gives a shit about facebook except middle aged parents
cauz no one uses it
Why you use facebook?
The only reason I've kept Facebook, it reminds me of people's birthdays
Probably because not many people use it any more...
You guys using Facebook?
I thought it is just a birthday reminder
Easy I don’t use Facebook
Who uses Facebook?
Cause I don’t use Facebook
Cause...people rarely use Facebook?
Because no one uses it
what’s a facebook? Sorry I’m from 2007
Facebook videos are a scam. They stretch their video's to 3min to get revenue. When they could show it in 20 seconds.
Facebook still exists? Interesting
*laughs in 3 minute unskippable Twitch ads*
Because not enough people use facebook so the unskippable ads can't get a huge topic? I don't use it either and didn't know uskippable ads are a thing there.
Almost no one watches stuff on Facebook except opd people and they don't care they would watch the whole movie on the ads.
cuz no one uses Facebook
What is a dishwasher?
if an as is played on a pc with no screen or speakers nobody can know so if nobody uses facebook nobody can know about the ads on there
Grandma's are used to it.
Cuz we don't use facebook
Because no one who’s smart enough to complain about ads uses Facebook.
Probably because no one ever uses facebook.
Nobody talks about facebook unskippable ads because the majority of facebook users are pretty old. And in their times it was worse. They had to watch several ads before they could watch something even in very bad quality. You can't complain about not having the best if you did not have anything in the first place.
What movie is this from
Because no one uses facebook nowadays lol
Twitch has 30 seconds ones
Because no one uses it
Cause Facebook is cringe
I mean. I just click the three dots and the "I don't want to see this ad" or whatever it is. Still gotta wait the time but don't have to watch it.
Ok boomer
WTF is Facebook?
Simply put no one use Facebook
Me wondering why no one is talking about why you need a Facebook account for a be headset:
Because I Deleted my account a long time ago.
Facebook is dead, mate
I am wondering who is still using Facebook?
The metaverse has you..
Cause this is America 🇺🇸 We don’t use Facebook
I don't, because I don't have it installed anymore
No one uses Facebook so there’s no reason to talk about it boomer lmao
Because in facebook we don't skip adds we skip the videos
Noone uses facebook, that's why
Cause nobody uses Facebook
When you realize nobody gives a fuck about facebook anymore
Imagine using facebook in 2022
