Deletion of an account is made deliberately awkward and uncomfortable by Facebook. Note that there are two separate types of account deletion, viz. Deactivation and Deletion.
+
La suppression d'un compte est délibérément gênée et rendue inconfortable par Facebook. Notez qu'il existe deux types distincts de suppression de compte, à savoir. La désactivation et la suppression.

'''Deactivation''' of an Account can be achieved using the normal Facebook menus.

La ‘’’Désactivation''' d’un Compte peut être réalisée en utilisant les menus normaux de Facebook.
  
−
The system in January 2018 was as follows:
+
Le système en date de janvier 2018 était ce qui suit :  
  
−
*Click the account menu at the top right of any Facebook page
+
*Cliquez sur le menu compte en haut à droite de toute page Facebook
−
*Select Settings
+
*Sélectionnez Paramètres
−
*Choose Manage your account and then scroll down to click '''Deactivate your account'''.
+
*Choisissez Gérer le compte et scrolled vers le bas pour cliquer '''Désactivter votre compte'''.
−
*You are asked to choose the reason for deactivation, such as 'It's not fun' or 'I don't feel safe' - Facebook will provide 'solutions' to the issue you choose such as 'make more friends'
+
*Il vous sera demandé de choisir la raison de désactivation (NDT à compléter en français), telle que 'It's not fun' ou 'I don't feel safe' - Facebook fournira des solutions au problème que vous avez choisi comme 'make more friends'
−
*You are also presented with a selection of your friends with prompts that 'xxxx will miss you' in an attempt to emotionally manipulate you into staying.
+
*Il vous sera aussi présenté une sélection de vos amis qui seront avertis que 'xxxx vous manquera’ afin d’essayer de vos manipuler émotionnellement pour vous inviter à rester.
  
−
Surprisingly, deactivation is not hidden away under layers of menus; it is in plain sight being in the description of the Manage your account section of settings.
+
Étonnamment, la désactivation n'est pas cachée sous des couches de menus ; la fonction est visible dans la description de la section Gérer votre compte des paramètres.
  
−
Note that Deactivating your account just means that your profile becomes 'hidden' to other Facebook users. Your posts, photos, tags, comments are all still present on Facebook, as is all data Facebook hold about you, whether that was provided by you in profile settings or otherwise. Messages you have sent to other users will still be visible to them. If you change your mind, simply logging back into Facebook restores all data to a user-accessible state.
+
Notez que la désactivation de votre compte signifie simplement que votre profil devient "caché" aux autres utilisateurs de Facebook. Vos posts, photos, tags, commentaires seont toujours présents sur Facebook, comme toutes les données que Facebook a sur vous, que ce soit celles que vous avez fournies dans les paramètres de profil ou autrement. Les messages que vous avez envoyés à d'autres utilisateurs resteront visibles pour eux. Si vous changez d'avis, la simple connexion à Facebook restaure toutes les données vers un état accessible à l'utilisateur.

Cette page a démarré sur iwc:Facebook

Cet article est une ébauche. Vous pouvez m'aider à l'améliorer et le compléter. Merci.

Cette page a démarré sur Facebook

Facebook est un silo d'hébergement de contenus très populaire et un agrégateur d’activités connu le plus souvent pour être le plus grand réseau social centralisé sur le web.

Comment faire

Exporter vos données

Vous pouvez exporter vos données sur Facebook en :

Pour exporter toutes les photos dans un album possédé par d’autres (comme toutes les photos dans lesquelles vou êtes tagué(e)) :

Pour exporter les messages Facebook messages :

Précédemment, Freedom.io pouvait s’utiliser pour copier les posts Facebook, il n’est plus maintenu ou recommandé, mais reste disponible sous forme de projet open source.

Textile fournit un service pour masser ses photos exportées sur FB et les ramener dans des galeries.

Comment POSSEr vers

Article principal : POSSE to Facebook

Il existe plein de façons de POSSEr ‘’quelques’’ choses à partir de votre site indieweb vers votre profil Facebook. Spécifiquement,, vous pouvez POSSEr les posts et les RSVPs d’événements mais en date de l'API Facebook 2.x, pas les commentaires ou j'aime. Les commentaires et les « j’aime » ne peuvent même pas être PESOSsés.

Techniques existantes :

à partir de Twitter

  • Tantek POSSE les notes, articles par nom + permalien, réponses (y compris les RSVPs) provenant de tantek.com vers Twitter, et utilise ensuite l’intégration de la fonctionnalité existante Twitter/FB pour publier en cascade (exception faite des réponses en plein texte) ce POSSE provenant de Twitter vers Facebook. Raisons :
    • utilité marginale insuffisante à écrire un syndicateur POSSE personnalisé vers FB.
    • FB reçoit simplement des résumés abrégés (plaçant de ce fait plus de valeur sur les posts originaux de tantek.com).
    • Exception : En 2014 Tantek a commencé occasionnellement à utiliser manuellement Bridgy Publish pour POSSEr des posts un peu plus longs et significatifs (notes et articles) à partir de tantek.com to Facebook.
  • tommorris fait de même, car il est paresseux.

IFTTT

Bridgy

Vous pouvez utiliser Bridgy pour POSSEr des posts et RSVPs d’événements Facebook. Détails ici.

Bridgy ‘’prenait en charge’’ le support de commentaires et likes POSSEs, mais l'API de Facebook' 2 a désactivé ça.


Facebook API

Article principal : POSSE to Facebook

Poster sur le mur de quelqu’un est pris en charge par l’’API Graph’ de Facebook. Voir POSSE to Facebook pour les détails et exemples.


Pour un aperçu plus général de l’API Facebook, regardez l’analyse du Social Web WG :

Comment PESOSser

Vous pouvez utiliser l’API Facebook pour PESOSser vos posts, mais en date de l’API 2.x, pas vos commentaires ou j'aime.

Comment se sevrer soi-même

Si vous cherchez à réduire votre usage de Facebook, vous pourriez trouver qu'y aller de façon progressive peut être plus aisé que le sevrage brutal des quitteurs de silos) .


Voici quelques étapes à suivre

  1. Effacez l'app native de Facebook. Utilisez plutôt https://m.facebook.com/, ou https://mbasic.facebook.com/ pour une expérience sans-JavaScript, incluant l'accès aux discussions dans Facebook Messenger.
  1. Utilisez https://facebook.com/events au lieu de facebook.com
    • Objectif : arrêter de regarder le Fil de News de Facebook (pour toutes les raisons données dans #Criticism).
    • Permet cependant :
      • d'aller aux événements organisés sur FB (voir les invitations, répondre etc.)
      • voir les anniversaires en cours (aujourd'hui, hier, demain)
      • vérifier l'activité des Amis (icône de personnes dans la barre d'outils)
      • de vérifier l'activité Message (icône bulle barre d'outil)
      • de vérifier les Notifications (icône globe dans la barre d'outil)
  2. Utilisez https://m.facebook.com/events le weekend seulement, uniquement sur mobile
    • But : vérifier rapidement quels sont les événements à venir juste pour les weekends (la version web mobile est plus rapide à charger / visualiser que fb.com/events)
    • But : être moins distrait par tous les autres éléments de l'UI.
    • Éviter spécifiquement :
      • la vérification des Notifications (icône alarme dans la barre d'outil)
    • Les membres IndieWeb qui font ça : portrait Tantek Çelik
  3. Utilisez votre URL de profil à la place https://facebook.com/me
    • But : être même encore moins obligé d'être distrait que de simplement vérifier les événements
      • Membres IndieWeb faisant/essayant ça : portrait Tantek Çelik (depuis le 2018-01-22 durant ~3 jours)
    • Permet encore :
      • vérifier vos copies POSSEes sur FB
      • vérifier l'activité de Message (icône bulle dans la barre d'outil)
    • Éviter spécifiquement :
      • de vérifier les Notifications (icône globe dans la barre d'outils)
    • Facultatif
      • minimiser l'activité d'Amitié (icône personnes dans la barre d'outils), peut-être vérifier/ajouter seulement une fois par jour/semaine ?
  4. Prendre une semaine+ de vacances "off the grid" durant lesquelles vous ne pourrez pas vérifier les notifications Facebook
    • But : arrêter de regarder les notifications Facebook (icône globe dans la barre d'outils)
      • Les membres IndieWeb qui ont fait ça : portrait Tantek Çelik (2016-08-07 durant ~1 semaine, 2017-08-01 durant ~1.5 semaine, 2018-01-14 durant ~10 semaine en étant complètement sorti du site web de Facebook, et en utilisant encore l'app FB pour la communication, et puis une procrastination depuis concernant la vérification des notifications)


Brainstorming Sevrage

Plus d'idées sur la façon de réduire l'usage de Facebook

  • documentez tous vos cas d'usages Facebook comme des démangeaisons pour implémentation sur votre propre site
  • prenez le cas d'usage le plus facile pour l'implémenter vous-même, le construire et essayez d'arrêter d'utiliser FB pour ça.

Comment effacer votre compte

La suppression d'un compte est délibérément gênée et rendue inconfortable par Facebook. Notez qu'il existe deux types distincts de suppression de compte, à savoir. La désactivation et la suppression.

Désactivation d’un Compte

La ‘’’Désactivation d’un Compte peut être réalisée en utilisant les menus normaux de Facebook.

Le système en date de janvier 2018 était ce qui suit :

  • Cliquez sur le menu compte en haut à droite de toute page Facebook
  • Sélectionnez Paramètres
  • Choisissez Gérer le compte et scrolled vers le bas pour cliquer Désactivter votre compte.
  • Il vous sera demandé de choisir la raison de désactivation (NDT à compléter en français), telle que 'It's not fun' ou 'I don't feel safe' - Facebook fournira des solutions au problème que vous avez choisi comme 'make more friends'
  • Il vous sera aussi présenté une sélection de vos amis qui seront avertis que 'xxxx vous manquera’ afin d’essayer de vos manipuler émotionnellement pour vous inviter à rester.

Étonnamment, la désactivation n'est pas cachée sous des couches de menus ; la fonction est visible dans la description de la section Gérer votre compte des paramètres.

Notez que la désactivation de votre compte signifie simplement que votre profil devient "caché" aux autres utilisateurs de Facebook. Vos posts, photos, tags, commentaires seont toujours présents sur Facebook, comme toutes les données que Facebook a sur vous, que ce soit celles que vous avez fournies dans les paramètres de profil ou autrement. Les messages que vous avez envoyés à d'autres utilisateurs resteront visibles pour eux. Si vous changez d'avis, la simple connexion à Facebook restaure toutes les données vers un état accessible à l'utilisateur.

Effacement d’un Compte

L’’’’Effacement’’’ d’un Compte ‘’ne peut pas’’’ être réalisé en utilisant les menus Facebook.

Your account has been deactivated from the site and will be permanently deleted within 14 days. If you log into your account within the next 14 days, you will have the option to cancel your request.

Deleting your account removes all photos, tags, comments and all user-provided data from Facebook. It does not delete non-user-provided data, such as your identity in 'tags' from other users photographs, your telephone number and email address if provided by another user (e.g. by accessing Contacts on a smartphone)

Features

(this section is a stub, when it has been more well filled-in, move to top of page after dfn, similar to Twitter page)

User features on Facebook's site:

Facebook has a number of interesting post types, each with different appearances and interfaces. Some better than others.

User features Facebook handles on other sites:

Status Update

Status updates are notes similar to Twitter tweets, that, including status updates with links (see below) are perhaps the most common type of top-level post on FB.

2011 limitation and Note distinction:

  • 419 character limit as of 2011-02-16. When you try to post 420 or more characters, you get an alert:

http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5218/5450622726_a12b9d13f4_o.png

Status updates must be less than 420 characters. You have entered 1,035
characters here. Notes can be much longer. Would you like to edit and post
your update as a Note instead?

via http://tantek.com/2011/047/b1/facebook-installed-application-activities-not-deletes

Link

Links posts are essentially status updates, but they have a different presentation due to the link-preview that is shown for the first link mentioned in the update.

Photo

Photo posts are perhaps the second most popular type of top-level post on FB.

Event

Article principal : event#Facebook

Facebook's event posts were quite clean and nicely designed, until they started rolling out a new design on 2014-02-27. Here is the design just before that point:

Fichier:20140227-facebook-event-example.png

Sometime in 2015(?specific date), Facebook launched a new event UI which includes:

  • a related events box in the right column, just underneath the "Invite Friends" box below the attendees box showing interested, going, invited numbers, as well as a few friends who have RSVPd at least interested/maybe or yes.

Comment

Comments are perhaps the overall most popular type of post, as people comment A LOT on other top-level posts, and Facebook has a two level notion of comment threading. That is, you can both comment on top-level posts, and comment on comments on top-level posts. The above event post screenshot demonstrates this two level commenting interface.

Aggregator

Facebook performs the function of a feed aggregator of all your friends' activities.

Some examples screenshots can be found here:

Analysis of some of the algorithms Facebook uses to choose what to display to users:

Comments Embed

Facebook has a feature called Comments Box which "is a social plugin that enables user commenting on your site." Indieweb sites can use it to embed a comments box on blog posts.

Though this does encourage your readers to sharecrop (on Facebook) their comments on your posts, it also provides them a single place to view their comments they've made across any/all sites that use Facebook for comments.

No indieweb community members are currently using this on their own sites.

IndieWeb community members that have tried this and their experience:

  • Aaron Parecki:
    • "Facebook tends to get more comments [than Disqus] for me probably because everyone has an account and is always logged in"[2]
    • "eventually I decided the quality of comments I was getting wasn't high enough and I didn't actually care about peoples' random crap they were leaving on my site"[3]

Groups

Facebook groups have a variety of privacy settings.

Removing someone from a group prompts to delete their posts or comments from the last 7 days.

If you are the last member of the group and you leave the group, a confirmation is displayed saying that the group will be deleted.

Anti-patterns

Some things that Facebook implements are actually anti-patterns and to be avoided:

Activities Examples

  • Alice shared Bob's status update.
  • Alice shared Bob's photo.
  • Alice likes Some Page.
  • Alice likes a photo.
  • Alice and 8 other friends wrote on Bob's timeline for his birthday.
  • Alice added 3 new photos to the album Some Album.
  • Alice updated her cover photo.
  • Alice changed her profile picture.
  • Alice commented on a link.
  • Alice shared a link.
  • Alice was tagged in Bob's photo.
  • Alice played 10 sounds on SoundCloud.
  • Alice added a job at Some Company to her timeline.
  • Alice likes a photo on Instagram.
  • Alice shared a story via Some Page.
  • Alice made your photo her profile picture

  • Alice just posted for the first time in a while.
    Erreur lors de la création de la miniature : Impossible d’enregistrer la vignette sur la destination

rel-me

Facebook does not currently support rel-me on their user profiles.

However, they do have a "website" field in the UI which you can set.

And then applications that wish to use that field for a one-off rel-me equivalence test can access that through their API:

Careful parsing it, people often put multiple whitespace- or newline-separated urls.

Additional Resources

Profile Image URLs

Perhaps unofficially, you can get your Facebook profile image as a resized JPEG using a graph.facebook.com URL, your Facebook user ID, and dimensions, which will redirect to an actual URL. e.g.:

Summary on nearly all of the issues of Facebook: Get your loved ones off Facebook. Isolation: cartoon of a prisoner using a large Facebook 'f' logo shaped periscope to look outside through a barred window, despite the perisope being attached to an unlocked door they could use to escape outside Comic about Facebook being a donut mobster, not allowing a donut maker to give their donuts to everyone that choose to get them

Algorithmic Filtering

Facebook uses a proprietary algorithm to show you a fraction (what they think you want to see) of the posts from your friends, and people & pages you follow. Up to 85% less than "all".[4]

This has been criticized many times.

API Degradation

Version 2.0[5] of the Facebook API mostly makes sensible changes to help tamp down spammy or privacy-violating apps (e.g. prevents you from seeing a user's friends unless the friends have also granted privileges to the app). But this change has broken some features that IndieWeb sites and Bridgy Publish depend on. Full discussion on IRC

  • Apps are given app-scoped user IDs now (i.e. they are unique to the application, as opposed to the global user IDs v1.0 used)
  • However, given a user's username, you can apparently no longer find their user ID.
  • Which means that you cannot get the post ID for a post from its URL.
    • For some posts you can look them up by /v2.2/{post-id} but most posts expect /v2.2/{user-id}_{post-id}, and there doesn't seem to be any predictable way to tell if a post wants the former id or the latter.

API Inconsistency

The ID for a number of comments has changed over time, resulting in Bridgy sending apparently duplicate mentions to the same post. The symptom is that the same comment will be received with an ID of the form USERID_POSTID, and later the same comment will have an ID with a different form, containing colons and apparently magic numbers.[6]

On 2015-04-07, Facebook support let us know that this "IDs like these can appear sometimes", and that it will not be fixed.

Hand-approval required to post via API

Unless the application developer is the only user, Facebook now requires applications to be hand-approved by the Facebook team if they are to post to a user's stream. This requires an application logo, complete screenshot walkthrough, and full privacy policy.

Big data collection allows intrusive inference

Facebook's big data collection allows intrusive inference about you

  • 2016-01-28 Gerd Leonhard: The evilfication of Facebook: boiling frogs, faustian bargains, and the pleasure trap: 10 arguments for quitting Facebook
  • A 2013 study found that accurate predictions can be made about the personality, political preferences and even sexual orientations of Facebook users based only on which Facebook pages a user "likes", even if a user hasn't explicitly revealed that information on their profile. (Huffington Post writeup)
  • A 2009 study at MIT found that social network analysis of Facebook friend relationships could also reveal a user's sexuality. (Mashable)
  • The inference is often so accurate that many people are convinced that Facebook is listening to their phone's microphone. Reply-All's podcast episode 109, published 2-11-2017, Is Facebook Spying on You?, demonstrates the futility of trying to persuade people that it is not spying, just data-gathering and manipulation that makes Facebook so creepy. Also supports the old journalistic epigram about the correct response to a headline that is a question. Of course, Facebook could also be spying.

Real Name demands

While not as bad as Google+, Facebook have been attempting to enforce the "real name" policy. In 2014-09, it was revealed Facebook had disabled the accounts of a number of drag queens requiring them to use their legal names. [7]

2014-09-17: Accounts which don't seem like they have "normal" names have also been challenged by Facebook's policy. [8]

2015-06-26: Facebook disabled a user's account because of their name, the same name they used to work for and get paid by Facebook as an employee:

Image used in link preview

On 2014-09-29, when I pasted a link to a blog post in a Facebook status, the link preview used one of the comment's avatars instead of the og:image meta element I have had in my HTML for years. I had to manually click through the images until the correct logo appeared. I am not sure if this is a glitch or if Facebook has changed their algorithm.

After using Facebook's Open Graph Object Debugger, I found it reported:

og:image was not defined, could not be downloaded or was not big enough. Please define a chosen image using the og:image metatag, and use an image that's at least 200x200px and is accessible from Facebook.

The image I'm using currently is only ~120px square. I guess that explains it, but it seems silly for Facebook to ignore the explicit og:image element I have set up. — portrait gRegor Morrill

Duplicate Events Created without Confirmation

On 2014-10-20 I (Modèle:Kylewm) tried to create a new HWC event using the "Copy Event" UI. I filled in the appropriate fields and clicked "Create". The button greyed out momentarily, and then re-enabled without any confirmation that the event had been copied. I checked my activity feed to see if it was there, and it was not, so I proceeded to click Create two more times before it seemed to go through. Some time later, 3 identical FB events all appeared (maybe an eventual consistency issue?).

Doesn't delete deleted data

Facebook does not really delete data when a user clicks on 'delete', but it flags the post as 'deleted', keeping all the data in it's database.

Encourages Bad Online Publishing Behaviors

http://www.qwantz.com/comics/comic2-2912.png Perhaps cliché and thus source for humor but with elements of truth. Unclear if these bad behaviors are due to Facebook's UI/UX (especially Newsfeed / like / share feedback loop), or just that Facebook is surfacing existing behaviors across a very broad spectrum of people. The humor in the cartoon works because these behaviors are fairly known / expected by users of Facebook. Still, specific citations would help with further analysis to see if the indieweb can do better (or is vulnerable to doing worse).

  • Posting about minor annoyances [citation needed]
  • Sponsored posts [citation needed]
  • Sharing of "clickbait" headlines [citation needed]
  • "Here's a friend crossposting from Twitter, so all these @ tags don't work." - perhaps a good reason to NOT secondhand POSSE from Twitter to FB. [citation needed]
  • Posting racist screeds that rely upon made-up quotes and statistics [citation needed]

Social experiment performed on users

  • A study published June 2, 2014 revealed that one week in 2012, Facebook tweaked the feeds of about 700,000 users to see if it could manipulate their mood and posting behavior [9]

Live user frustration test

Facebook deliberately artificially crashed their Android app as a live (unbeknownst to the users) user-test to test frustration / abandonment! https://twitter.com/internetofshit/status/684124629963685888 and https://twitter.com/internetofshit/status/684125090527752194:

Harmful to Body Image

Facebook use causes decline in satisfaction

2013-04-17 The Economist: Facebook is bad for you: Get a life! Using the social network seems to make people more miserable

… the more someone uses Facebook, the less satisfied he is with life.

[…]

the more a volunteer used Facebook in the period between two questionnaires, the worse he reported feeling the next time he filled in a questionnaire. Volunteers were also asked to rate their satisfaction with life at the start and the end of the study. Those who used Facebook a lot were more likely to report a decline in satisfaction than those who visited the site infrequently.

But an earlier investigation, conducted by social scientists at Humboldt University and Darmstadt’s Technical University, both in Germany, may have found the root cause. These researchers, who presented their findings at a conference in Leipzig in February, surveyed 584 users of Facebook aged mostly in their 20s. They found that the most common emotion aroused by using Facebook is envy. Endlessly comparing themselves with peers who have doctored their photographs, amplified their achievements and plagiarised their bons mots can leave Facebook’s users more than a little green-eyed. Real-life encounters, by contrast, are more WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get).

Emphasis added.

"FACEBOOK IS BORING *IRL*"

Reinforcing shallow dopamine responses

Pacifies isolates people with comfort bubbles

  • 2016-05-10 Hossein Derakhshan: Mark Zuckerberg is a hypocrite - Facebook has destroyed the open web[10]

    All the videos, images, and articles we see in our newsfeeds are picked for us based on our habits, based on our previous likes and reshares, which have taught Facebook about our preferences. Naturally, most of us only like what or who we agree with, and Facebook therefore rarely upsets, challenges, or surprises us.

    It is heart-breaking to see how Facebook has changed the internet into little more than a portal for entertainment

    While Zuckerberg laments at walls and admires bridges, the fact is that his Facebook algorithms have created billions of these comfort bubbles that are even more isolating than walls.

    Emphasis added.

Builds demographic profiles including "ethnic affinity"

Facebook does not ask you about your ethnicity, but builds demographic profiles based on what you do on the site, including an "ethnic affinity". ProPublica demonstrated and reported that ads for housing could exclude people based on this "ethnic affinity". Facebook has since announced they will disable "ethnic affinity" targeting for housing, employment, and credit-related ads.

Downtime

Though typically rare and brief, Facebook does go down / offline from time to time, most recently:

2017-10-11 Outage

http://www.sfgate.com/entertainment/the-wrap/article/Facebook-Goes-Down-Users-Turn-to-Twitter-to-12269781.php

https://twitter.com/NesiKa11/status/918135764759613440

2017-08-26 Outage

Saturday morning turned out to be social-media-free for a number of Facebook and Instagram users, albeit involuntarily.

Some people reported difficulties accessing the two social platforms beginning at about 9 a.m. ET

from http://money.cnn.com/2017/08/26/technology/business/facebook-down/

2016-08-26 Partial Outage

  • 2016-08-26 ~16:00-16:10 (at least) flakey / apparent unavailability of page events pages:

Fichier:2016-239-FB-sorry-something-wrong.png

Sorry, something went wrong.

2014-08-01 Outage

2014-08-01 CNBC: Facebook goes down for many users

  • 2014-08-01 ~9:00-9:40 flakey / intermittent availability with lots of "Something went wrong" messages, e.g. on a permalink page when logged in:

Fichier:FB something wrong 2014-08-01.png

  • on a group page when logged in:

Fichier:FB group down 2014-08-01.png

  • and on the home page:

Fichier:Facebook is down 20140801.png

  • on a previously loaded FB page, the "Notifications" globe drop-down just rotated a progress image for minutes and never loads:

Fichier:FB notifications dropdown not loading 2014-08-01.png

Prefers Pageviews Over Efficient UX

Per the documentation in reader#Integrated_Activity_Reading, one of Facebook's UI experiments involved an integrated reading experience that showed by posts and other "activities" in a single reading stream:

https://d23f6h5jpj26xu.cloudfront.net/gpnggaky8d1gog_small.jpg

What they found was that it was too efficient - users were reading things and not clicking to see additional pages.

Thus they abandoned the experiment, instead preferring a UI that generates more pageviews over a UI that is more efficient for users.

This may present an opportunity for IndieWeb UX to exceed silo UX.

Link Wrapper Problems

Link Wrapper Unreliability

Facebook's link wrapper lm.facebook.com sometimes has outages, thus breaking all links in content in Facebook.

E.g. 2014-08-10 ~21:25-21:32 (at least)
