Oh no, and it's really worth understanding what Facebook offers that other platforms kind of don't.

You know the idea of technical problems with technical solutions vs social problems with social solutions?

By emphasizing connections through friends of friends and other strongly personal indicators, Facebook offers social solutions to social problems of gauging trust for people, punishing misbehavior, etc.

You don't have to rely so much on bots or moderator whims if you can see that Bob is a friend of my best friend Mary, so Bob is likely a good guy.

It's the functionality other platforms, including Mastodon, would do well to consider if they aren't focused on growth growth growth.
