It's the main facebook app, blue is a nickname for it in SV circles. It's to differentiate it from their other apps insta, etc

I used "Blue" to criticise myself for not severing all ties to Facebook (I still use Instagram and WhatsApp) but just from Facebook, the social network (=blue). But I want to firmly distance myself from any SV circles! ;)
What's an SV circle?
KaoruAoiShiho said "blue" was a nickname for the main facebook app "in SV circles" and probably meant: Silicon Valley Circles.

But now that I think of this I wish it was something more technical... [edit:typo]

Silicon Valley
