    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 community notes appear many hours after the original has been posted, meaning that majority of interactions will be before any notes will be attached. And even the process of choosing the community notes is not transparent, so you can never be sure that the note does its job even after it’d added.

      Because most of the world are Normies that will use whatever comes pre-installed on their phone, or go onto whatever thing their friends are on already?

      I mean:
