I think it's Facebook trying to cover that actual interest in the site and keeping it alive by the users themselves is actually dwindling. I recently unliked a lot of old pages I didn't want to see anymore and it was amazing how much it tried to figure out what I liked, rather than just show me what my friends posted. Why? Because my friends didn't post nearly as often enough to keep my timeline full of news. I have ~80 friends/acquaintances there, everyone from adults to kids, various jobs and interests, personalities.

Facebook is doing well as an ad platform to keep the revenue up but I'm not sure Facebook is honestly... doing well, you know?

I've seen them recently try to be Snapchat with the stories. I haven't seen one person use them yet despite being active on Snapchat. Also stickers, the new attention grabbing personal status posts with huge text, etc. It's as if they are lately trying to make people post more personal status updates on the site?

Is it possible there's a social network ad bubble that, once it pops when the realization of how much attention people actually pay on that site rather than just mindlessly scroll through like a heroin addict sinks in, will cause their stock to crash? I honestly don't think Facebook is one a nice trajectory either for us or for them.
