People really do fall for this. I believe this mainly affects the elderly. Not anyone using Lemmy, but it really does exist.

I do, luckily. But I’d rather not use any Meta apps.

I guess I’m at least lucky that marketplace isn’t used here primarily.

Meta

Right. I’m still used to the parent company being named Facebook.

I want to quit Facebook so badly, but I NEED to use WhatsApp. Family, friends, work even. All informal and semi-formal chats go through WhatsApp where I live.

Makes sense. Now they can focus more on their core business. Google recently sold it’s domain registry, I think it might be the same thing.
