Man, FB is horridly optimized (sh.itjust.works)

I am baffled any time I'm on facebook how horrid it is. Loads insanely slowly, won't accept picture uploads at random, randomly doesn't let you share to people in your friends group (it will just hide people for no reason). Such a terrible website. Sadly I have to stay on it for friends and music reasons (there is nothing else anyone I know uses) but man, it's crazy how badly they want you to install their spyware app so you don't use the browser version.

Thats why I suggest phone number exchanfe for texting. Its not the most secure but RCS is at least a security boost.

Events is definitely harder, so I understand that. My wife still uses facebook and tracks that stuff. Ive actually resorted to finding events in local news sources that I put into an RSS feed. If anything Ill make a burner fb account so I can access that kind of stuff, but thus far I have not needed it. Hopefully events become less of a problem as FB becomes more of a problem
