Ignorance is bliss from my standpoint. I have no Facebook anything and won't ever have one.

So this place wins by default!

Cheers,

I rarely use Facebook. I got the personal account years ago so I could open a business account to promote my business. Now I mainly use it to learn about products. Usually their FB page is way better that their web page when needing info.

The big difference for me is: 99.9% of the time when I get a message from another Net54 member I am happy to get it. Most messages I get on FB are from people I have not seen for years and I would really like to extend that not communicating with them streak as long as possible.

I appreciate both that there is a policy against political posts here and that there is not such a policy on Facebook as it's important for me to engage in discussions of [redacted]. That said, though I probably spend more time on Facebook than on Net54, I don't spend any of my Facebook time in sportscard-related groups.

For me, I enjoy talking about cards on FB and it has greater outreach than NET54.

However, there are far more trolls/bad members on FB than on NET54.

So it is a give and take.

I gave up Facebook for lent and didn't really miss it. The best part of Facebook is videos with cute puppies

Regarding card groups. The difference is;

1. Leon. Your vetting of membership, kicking out scammers, and doing what is necessary when things get political or ugly (same thing?). Some FB groups have this, but not all

2. Not sure the knowledge that is here is on any Facebook forum

3. The UI, with different sections is much better, the ability to search. On Facebook I see a post in the AM when I am sitting in my office, I wipe by butt and wash my hands, and I can't find the post!

If you could add a section for cute dog videos ...
