Why Facebook Gets a 3 instead of a 5

Facebook is wonderful for reconnecting with old friends, and staying in touch with friends and family! It’s also wonderful for making new friends who have similar interests and beliefs. However, the censorship, the lack of human involvement in determining what is, and is not appropriate as far as Facebook’s community standards is extremely flawed! People have posts removed, because a single word flags computer to mark the content as inappropriate, when, in fact, the full contentis very appropriate, and even supportive of those who may be dealing with particular hardships. You can’t say the word suicide on Facebook, without risking getting banned or putting in Facebook jail for 48 hours, when, in fact, you are posting some thing that is meant to be supportive and helpful to those who are suffering and conflicted. This is wrong! And it should be fixed, because it’s becoming so out of hand, that people don’t try to help other people anymore. They don’t want to deal with the algorithms hassling them, When they’re just trying to help. This is just one example of the problems with Facebook; it’s an ability to properly determine what, and doesn’t go against community standards, which is undermining, free speech, and promoting censorship!

Do not download this app

I am so angry with Facebook!! I have gotten remarried and gone through all the steps to change my name legally and be rid of the last name of my EX. I haven’t changed my name on here in TEN YEARS but when I try to change my name now Y’all say I’ve already changed my name in the last 6 months!! No I have not!! You tell me I have to verify my identity so I send my new drivers license, my new social security card, my new voter registration card AND my marriage license!!!! And y’all have denied my proof 100 times in the last 2 months. While my friend changes her name to a fake name every other week with no issues!!! I have tried every option to speak with someone for help and hit dead ends everywhere. WHO DOES FACEBOOK ANSWER TO??? I have reported you to yourself, I’ve left reviews, I’ve scoured the help center, I’ve called the hotline, all to NO AVAIL!!!! Now here I am running around with my EX HUSBANDS NAME when I’ve done everything I’m supposed to to prove who I am and Facebook still refuses to hear me. HOW DO I FIX THIS FACEBOOK???? This is hands down the worst app I’ve ever owned and no matter all the terrible one star reviews, Facebook still thrives…. No matter the fact that Facebook censors everyone and refuses to acknowledge issues but yet YOU STILL THRIVE. I need help Facebook! How do I speak with someone who can actually help before I shut down my Facebook altogether again because this is ridiculous and a waste of time!

You can’t say your opinion

this is supposed to be a "Open opinion" no judgment for conversations or debates or just a fun app to share memes and stay connected with friends and family however you use it might I say may cause you to be "Blocked" for either several hours the first couple times of being "Warned" by Facebook if they take down one of your posts for whatever reason they pick (For no apparent reason) and you will start off with a few hours to a few days or even MONTHS and I believe some get their account deleted completely because of Facebook disagreements on peoples posts and you may think "Hm I don't post nothing bad" or
"That won't happen to me" trust me there will be one post and you will share it and Facebooks very hypocritical self will take down your posts and even block you account meanwhile for Facebook being so "Wanna keep Facebook a safe place" | see a lot of disturbing and down right horrible things online (people dying, accidents, cartel videos of people getting chopped up, Drugs, fights) and just way more than you can ever think you'd see on a app that apparently wants to keep everyone safe why not worry about the posts that you should be worrying about I have been blocked for quite a while now and soon will be "Unblocked" for weeks finally and am now writing a review before deleting the app to warn people of facebooks ridiculous choices and rules on the app.
