I see FB as entrenched, typical 1st to market "titan" ... I left on Jan 6th. It is a tool of the fascists. No matter how convenient it was for groups like you mention and I was in a couple that I did find helpful ... my conscience would allow me to continue there. FB is just downright evil. I don't see whatever Trump comes up with as directly competing with FB. There is a need for multiple other mediums. I think FB's dominance is sort of like the networks dominance 20 years ago ... bound to be diminished. FB is just not a growth story any more. I also think that people willing to put their advertising dollars there will be increasingly disillusioned -- the only thing it has going for it is the data mining. At some point there are diminishing returns to mining everyone's data -- there has to be. FB, GOOG, almost any interface you use to the internet is doing it ... I swear sometimes stuff I discuss on SI ... comes back to me in the form of marketing. Heck, I think, unless you use encryption on your text messages -- someone is getting in there. Had too many adds pop up in various places.
