👓 Fuck Facebook | Daring Fireball

Read Fuck Facebook by John Gruber (Daring Fireball)
Treat Facebook as the private walled garden that it is. If you want something to be publicly accessible, post it to a real blog on any platform that embraces the real web, the open one.

Content that isn’t indexable by search engines is not part of the open web.

  1. Its a nice pithy slogan but the issue is more complex. Grubber links to pay-walled content, regurgitates things from private conversations, ect. I don’t think everything on the open web needs to be public and/or free.
