I noticed when I give someone my number or I save a number in my contacts they usually appear later in "People You May Know' version on Instagram.

Maybe Facebooks is similar.

Yeah Facebook can definitely access your contacts. I used my phone for work and Facebook was always adding work colleagues as people I may like to know

All apps can access your contacts. Plus pretty much anything else on your phone. Ain't this common knowledge?

Add a dummy contact for like mark zuckerberg or someone and see if the real person comes up as a suggestion

You'd need his phone number, it goes by the phone number. I've added customers only for short spells and it's suggested them. I'm not on Facebook anymore.

I got rid of Reddit, too, which to be honest I kept for so long because it’s the best archive of hot women showing off their assets you’ll ever see on the web. Was good for um, hand solo shenanigans.

But it’s too much, you want to keep looking and then it ends up chewing into gym time, chore time, hobby time etc. Not to mention other interesting threads. Also I hate the hive mind, upvote/downvote system of theirs, and at the end of the day it’s social media.

Agree with all the above. It has the disadvantage of being so busy that topics are repeated constantly.

I’m not on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram and I’ve tried them all before. So much better off without.

So BigFooty is my guilty pleasure. A return to the days of pre social media would be great but the genie is out of the bottle now.

Yep thats just up'ing your simp game. Which is sad and pathetic. Good for you.

Facebook is such a haven for Karen and Darren Boomer. The Bulldogs posted a picture of the team with the Indigenous flag before Australia Day . Today there are some pics of the boys at a smoking ceremony welcome to country.

According to the comments on Facebook membership cards are being angrily shredded.

I don't know if my club is particularly reactionary but geez some people are easily triggered, and once one person chimes in there's a good old fashioned pile in.

Is there an issue having a picture with the Aboriginal flag? And it is fantastic they attended a smoking ceremony.

How many does the average Aboriginal attend?

One of those things I feel a bit dumber for not realising sooner: there's a few random Facebook pages which post clips from Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul and other similar TV shows and I can't help but watch them until the end, without giving much thought to the fact that the page's name has absolutely nothing to do with the videos that they're posting.

Apparently, they're from cybercriminals who've hacked innocent groups' pages and use popular clips to draw in dills like me to watch their full clips and get paid for the ad revenue, or even bigger dills who'd click on their dodgy links.

Sounds like the best bet is to keep scrolling, or even to give an angry react if these are coming up on your feed.

The "Are We Dating The Same Person" groups are great for a laugh.

(I was curious about a Coby because a lot of ladies were spilling tea about an apparent arseh*le Coby from the northern suburbs)
