I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.
However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.
Where is the #Fediverse #craigslist alternative? Lets get going, people!
I gave up on Facebook when they banned my account for the second time after providing evidence that I exist in both cases.
Technically, my account is still "under review", for the past 8 years.
I used this name, Mystik Incarnate, because, believe it or not, there are more people who know me by this name, compared to how many know me by my legal name.
I remember that Facebook challenged my name back in the day, like 10+ years ago. I took a form of ID and made it say "Mystik Incarnate" as my name, sent that in, and they unblocked my account for a while. A few years later and they did it again. By then, I was already on the fence whether or not I wanted to maintain a Facebook account... But I submitted basically the same thing and..... Well... It's still "being reviewed".
I do have an account under my legal name, mainly as a collector of messages for people that know me professionally or something that are trying to reach out. I check it every few months at most; but that account has no friends, no connections, nothing. I only keep it so people can message me. I don't use their apps or anything, I only log in on the website and usually incognito so that they can't track me across the web.
Every time I see someone's logged in Facebook account, I'm disgusted by how cancerous it has become. Anyone who reaches out to me on that platform I usually try to have them connect with me by email, or some other chat program that's more trustworthy.
Fuck Meta.
Weird nowadays many people I know are using alias on FB without incident. It's a safety issue for women.
The infuriating part is people willing to use Facebook at all.
And Facebook marketplace and buy nothing are helpful. We need to get people off that crappy platform.
Craigslist still exists, I use it fairly often.
What’s next? Fingerprints? Criminal record? DNA? Retina scans? It’s like people are joining CIA and not a social media site
This is the reason i haven't delete my facebook, my pre-massively-enshittified account doesn't need to go through any of this shit.
Is there a good 2nd hand market beside FB now? We are buying our first house and will be needing some stuff once we move in. My account is long gone and my wife's is deactivated, close to closing it out. We have some good antique and thrifts around us, but my SIL gets killer deals on FB market.
some areas have active nextdoor.com marketplaces, but you have to prove your residence by receiving a code in the mail.
Looks like we found a good use case for facial generative ai
I was banned from Facebook. Because I commented on a pro civil war post by a bot. Saying I’d gladly meet any of these confederates on the field of battle. Guess FB is protecting these bots because it gets so much traction with the terrorists sympathizers on the right. Go figure. 20 year old acct nuked. Lost so many photos.
I've reported so many fake accounts and accounts promoting right wing violence or blatant racism and every single time they send a report back saying the account/comment doesn't violate any rules.
use AI
lol wot
I needed to make an account recently, if you make it via a proper computer you get this and it sends it as an "appeal".. Which means they werent clever enough to separate new account creation from actual appeals. So of course what happens is it goes to some call center in some poor part of the world where they're not smart enough to know the difference or dont care, they hit deny and you get perma banned.
This is not the same if you sign up via an app, which is amazingly stupid but whatever.
Ironically i learned about this by watching youtube videos for scammers on how to make fake facebook accounts.
Of course i immediately uninstalled the app, because i dont want that cancer on my phone.
ofc not to train ai
I used a burner sim and a fake video. You could generate it with AI or even a good 3d model.
eventually they will want a dna sample
Sir please drink a verification can.

I was going to sign up a couple of years ago for the same reason - marketplace - but they wanted a picture selfie then and that was enough to stop me.
The same thing happened to me recently. I used my friend's phone to play this video in front of the camera, and it worked.
