It's like every business in my city, I hate it. Want to check out a restaurants menu before trying it out? Look on Facebook. Need to call a business or check holiday hours? Contact info is on Facebook. Makes not having Facebook a huge barrier. Heck even my union basically only communicates over Facebook aside from the occasional email. ๐Ÿ˜‘

I can't join our local BIKE CLUB because they only post events, and group happenings on FB, and I refuse to get back on that platform.

Any company or org that claims to be accessible needs to stop posting exclusively on locked-in social media platforms. That's the opposite of accessible.

Ugh right? I'd love to join a local plant club but they're all only on Facebook.
