Facebook is DEAD

Hi, and welcome arrm, Motif, the end of Facebook, Twitter and all annoying feed type platforms will be slow and gradual, (well, with any luck) since it is leading to a higher incidence of a sure neck, and finger pressing a glass screen all day.

From what l have read a restaurant is already offering free meals to children who put these things into a bucket, and actually have a civilized meal together.

And schools are considering banning them during class also.

With any luck shopping centres will be next, (lost count of how many idiots staring into their phones and typing while walking have almost run into me).

As for the future, unfortunately when holographic smart phones become commonplace, then new platforms utalizing this 3D component will exceed FB and such, and instead of sifting through a feed, it will be a 3D version.

Which will hopefully make them safer for all.

Many would argue that Facebook is already a Black Mirror episode.

The same people perhaps would hope that bots will run it into the ground.

With Mark Zuckerberg forming earth's most powerful brainstorming secret forum with Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Google's Larry Page, Jeff Bezos and the machine connected still functioning brains of Stephen Hawking and Steve Jobs Facebook will transform and transcend just similar to what Google and Microsoft did so the "world's largest country" will not be facing any type of genocide any time soon.

Someone like a Mark Zuckerberg is fully aware of such risks and will simply get Facebook to evolve throughout the ages plus they have enough money to buy out any emerging competition.

When you develop a virtual product for maybe thousands of bucks and it's now valued by the market at hundreds of millions of dollars which will only be on paper and the immense riches to be derived will not be realized until you sell.

This will be the catch for any emerging technology challenging facebook - they will be bought out in the early stages putting back companies such Facebook back in control as the dominant factor in the marketplace.

Facebook will never die in my opinion. Heck, in the future we will be able to Facebook with dead people! It may be a Facebook owned company and that means very little to users and also means Facebook not only is making money off of live users.. they will also be making money off of dead users.


Hope I live long enough to see it. Be assured I will jump at the chance to convert my existing page to a dead user page if the opportunity arises before I pass. Why? Just to piss off all of my favorite people that I like to piss off <smile>. Starting with the pizza delivery person that has an obsession to deliver warm beer with my pizza.


Then there is newspaper delivery person that always unrolls my paper and reads the comics. A hologram appears every time he opens the mailbox that depicts me hitting Bugs Bunny with a baseball bat.


Then there is my Facebook auto poster that automatically posts to this thread things like.. "Send Ice Water - It;s HOT down Here." and "I buried $1M in my favorite person's backyard."

Right now with a large number of people staring at the screen of their smartphones.. and facebook owning the major apps on those devices .. Facebook,Instagram, Whats app .. and if snap chats founders where willing to sell zuck would have owned that to.


Zuckerberg knows the business he is ine and where the attention of users are.. so don't count on Facebook dieing any time soon ..even if it goes full social justice warrior.. and bans any user expressing any conservative or right leaning views (or shadow bans..so most people can't see what you post) .. it will still be around for a long while ..

how are the bots negativly effecting what you do..to risk killing facebook

What do you mean by Facebook is Dead.


Is it paid advertising? Organic reach? What?

No! . . . . . . . .

Yes, definitely there is a change, but those changes are for better thing. Last month millions of users data is stolen from the facebook and there are many fake accounts in the facebook which are using it for malicious activities. so you can see a decline in impression and decrease in engagement. Because facebook is now rolling its updates.

Eventually They will Join Myspace
But till that... some years left!

Simply Facebook changes and tries to follow today`s trends and people`s needs, we`ll have to get accustomed to that, that`s all

Bots engaging with other bots. Bots liking the content another bot posted. Bots reporting other bots for spamming.

And don't forget to join groups and spam your links. It's the "secret" free traffic method being "taught" right now.

Beep, bop, borp, beep...end auto-post.

Brent or bot?

I think that yes, Instagram has won all! ((

i got some traffic from there though, what way forward?

I'm not an internet marketer. Or rather I don't try to be I guess is what I mean. Social Media Marketing is more my knowledge base, but Freelancing unrelated things is my daily goal. I only ended up here from Freelancer, and didn't even know it was a forum for marketing people until after I joined - I just liked what I saw!

Anyways, what I'm trying to say is I am a horrible sales person and I don't try to market my brand in ways even a beginner should. I have all the creative ideas but lack the skills needed to apply them usually (producing digital art or coding software are the skills I'm lacking, yet get flooded with all kinds of ideas for artists or developers.. I'm great at telling you how to improve your project on github but please don't ask me to make it a PR because I'll just blush and laugh at you coyly while slowly running away..)

I also love writing so much that I never shut up..

What I'm trying to say is.. even as an 'outsider' I had the same feelings about FB.. whereas it wasn't that long ago that FB was sort of the 'place to be seen' at, but now it feels like Twitter or Tumbler might be making a comeback.. G+ is closing shop next year so maybe we are just waiting on a new innovative social site to bloom... This is just the calm before the storm.

FB isn't dead some people may have lie low but they are still active
