In the US - sure. The rest of the world -lol, no

Are you surprised that an American publication with a mostly American audience would focus mostly on the experience of Americans?

Not at all. But Facebook is not used only by Usians. So the article might seem a bit misleading for people from different parts of the world.

"American" is the correct demonym for people from the United States of American.

Fun fact, there have been a dozen other countries which were "United States of X" throughout history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_that_include...

Yeah, at least anecdotally that's true from my observation. I grew up in the US but spent time living abroad, so have networks in multiple places.

American friends ditched the site en masse starting around 2012. By now, none of my original American circle is using the site and my timeline/feed is entirely dead except for frequent posts by foreigner friends.
