Meta's decision to block news links in Canada this month has had almost no impact on Canadians' usage of Facebook, data from independent tracking firms indicated on Tuesday, as the company faces scorching criticism from the Canadian government over the move.

I go to Facebook nowadays for 3 reasons:

A) Post memes to give my friends a smile or chuckle.
B) Check on a group or two (50% of the time related to memes also lol.
C) Someone messaged me.

If I want news, I go the same places I’ve already been using for 20+ years and it aint Facebook.
