The problem with facebook's platform, is the problem isn't the platform

Read Original

This article critiques Facebook's development platform, arguing that while it initially showed great potential, its core issue is not the platform itself but the primary applications and user experience. It discusses declining engagement, the limitations of browser-based utilities like chat and photo uploads, and advocates for better third-party desktop applications to truly make Facebook a useful utility.
