That's a fair point. I'm going to make an assumption here but those systems aren't moderated or controlled centrally? So I see two issues with these if they become popular. 1. This only increases misinformation since there's no censorship at all 2. What prevents people from using the service for illegal purposes (I think this becomes a problem once services become popular) 3. Finally won't it just be banned eventually? If some court in any country issues a ruling to control it and it can't be controlled that will just escalate. Especially if it's something like pedophiles.

What makes you say that? I think it's a good argument, doesn't mean it's right but it has substance. You also have some quotes that I never said. Nowhere did I imply it's a net positive. It is like a tool however but it has much more input.

But people moving from Facebook to another social media or messaging platform is just changing the company. That new company could do whatever things you don't like that Facebook is doing. Your example seems to mean that we move to another healthcare system as in method of implementation not just moving from one company to another.

How is that a good comparison? Not everyone uses Facebook out of habit, some businesses need it, and it can be used for good things as well as bad because it's just a medium in which people post content

Yes how that content is presented, ranked, etc is controlled by Facebook but that contribution is less than the content itself.

It would be better to say it's the spoon in which someone could eat a sugary cereal or something healthy.
