This might actually end up being a good thing. If users can fact-check stuff instead of relying kn Meta to do it for us. It seems bad, but there are a lot of people willing to correct their misinformation.
On the flipside, why are people still using facebook? It's like 90% AI slop these days.

The idea of this being useful assumes meta won't be removing community notes they don't like.

I run a free board game group on there called West Allis Board Games. Believe me, I would like to leave Meta and I offer everyone https://gamenight.host/@wa_bgn as a nonprofit alternative, but no one is on the latter and everyone is on the former. If you have any ideas on what I can do, I'm all ~~ears~~ eyes.
I asked the attendees about how they'd feel if we moved to a different platform and they immediately said they don't want to handle dozens of accounts scattered across different platforms. I also advertise the group on related subreddits and, most recently, the locally relevant /c/ equivalents here.

Mark Zuckerberg raped my roomba.
Think you have a typo there. Should say "by" roomba right? That's what I heard.
You dare sully my roomba's name?
I think the impending bankruptcy is going to take care of that when all their vacuums stop working without their app.
Meta-free since January!
