But Meta forces you to have an account to view content, which is already privacy-invading enough.
And shame on the businesses and organizations who only use these platforms to update their customers/members.
We need a nitter for everything.
We have a lot of them tbf https://libredirect.github.io/
I use lots of these but I don’t think we have one for Instagram though, no?
I use Picuki for it.
There used to be one called Bibliogram, but they stopped development a while ago https://bibliogram.art/
There’s proxigram
It’s like every business in my city, I hate it. Want to check out a restaurants menu before trying it out? Look on Facebook. Need to call a business or check holiday hours? Contact info is on Facebook. Makes not having Facebook a huge barrier. Heck even my union basically only communicates over Facebook aside from the occasional email. 😑
I can’t join our local BIKE CLUB because they only post events, and group happenings on FB, and I refuse to get back on that platform.
Any company or org that claims to be accessible needs to stop posting exclusively on locked-in social media platforms. That’s the opposite of accessible.
Ugh right? I’d love to join a local plant club but they’re all only on Facebook.
My thoughts and frustrations exactly.
I’m sure this is entirely out of Meta’s concern for user privacy and not the looming EU regulations on tracking required to be opt in rather than opt out.
The benovolence.

You need to start opening ur piehole re:the Pihole question
So, what if they purposely turn your feeds to shit, and have an obnoxious ad at the top of every screen saying:
Don’t like your feed? Change your privacy settings to make it more personalised!YouTube does exactly that if you disable your watch history. Or rather, they just disable video recommendations on your home page altogether.
The company known for stealing and selling your data is giving the option to not do it? Yeah right! Placebo switch. Meta: “Turn it on and hope we don’t sell your data anyway because there is no law saying we cant and we will just get a small easy to pay fine for it anyway if there is.”
