I think the raw text inside Facebook groups is at least as valuable as Reddit data. Even if demographics data is restricted under European law, the raw text of people interacting is quite valuable.


Indeed, my deranged auntie posting on FB is approximately as valuable as my ADHD/PTSD quaranteeny nephew redditing.


That ignores all the user groups that are on Facebook. From apartment communities aka Nextdoor to grief support counseling to the mindfulness therapy groups, there’s a wealth of user comments a tad bit higher than Uncle John’s racist rants.


Ahhh you had posted some other negative META criticism that was not even factual. Your made-up narratives really do not paint the correct picture.


facebooks downfall will be their lock in. every other social media platform lets you view a public profile, discussion groups etc. it's all locked inside facebook.
