Surely longer ago than that? Facebook hasn't been cool for probably over 15 years
Has FB been cool since they got rid of signups limited by .edu email addresses?
That was basically the end. When it was only friends and the feed sorted by "new,", it was super fun. When my aunts started joining it became much less fun.
Yeah, and it went from "let's just add some stuff" to outright "we will force feed you this slop and you will like it" from there. It felt like you were a goose being prepped for Christmas' foie gras.
That's when it was cool to teens who didn't have .edu emails addresses (but not long after).
You had a good year or two after that and then it went to shit.
No, because that's when the olds took it over.
It went downhill when poking and sheep throwing went away.
