The enemy of my enemy is my friend, if you will.
Now I just wish their next article will "reveal" that Instagram and WhatsApp are both owned by FB too. I feel like a lot of people are unaware of that fact - even those that are openly anti-FB but are happily running WA & IG.

Just curious, when did you join Facebook/social media? For myself and many other young people, social media began as online chatting through programs like AIM, MSN, YAHOO, or even in games like RuneScape, where we could meet new people or more commonly, talk and show off to our friends from school. Myspace felt like an absolute leap in online expression for us, and the idea of "Top Friends" had a real impact on our d…
Before that I never actually used the internet for socializing, it was more a tool for fetching compilers and programming tutorials and occasionally doing research for school projects. For me at least the web was something you visited with a goal in mind, retrieved the information you wanted after a short search, and left. Perhaps that's typical of preteens.

At this point they just realize writing anything that roughly matches "Facebook is bad" is free clicks. It's a rare time when the NYT might have an enemy in common with so many people.

Agreed that when you are in your teens/early twenties, this is more of an issue which is why Snap etc. are more popular. But once users move to mid twenties/thirties, they go back to Facebook given the type of sharing it enables.
