Let’s say you have 800 friends. What service do you recommend to try to convince FB users to move ? This platform would have to have all the same functions, videos, pictures, events, pages, etc.
I know of nothing like this i could even suggest to friends to switch to (and there’s almost no way anyone actually would) but I am curious. I dont think it exists, likely purely of the cost to run such a platform without it being a data stealing cesspool like fb.
And dont say “the fediverse” because I hardly understand how it works myself, and the links are scary looking to my friends so that is a no go.
My recommendation is to just stop using it and everyone else be damned.
You have 800 friends, do you actually talk to all 800 of them regularly? Are they actually friends or just people you kinda know who interact with you on Facebook?
I’d say text your actual friends or talk to them on whatever chat app you prefer, and ignore everyone else.
