That's it for Discord facts, everyone. Now, let me share a few facts about Facebook. The origin story of this social media network in itself is very interesting.
Infact, here is the movie about it called The Social Network starring the likes of Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1285016/
Also, here is a reel vs real comparison - https://screenrant.com/social-network-facebook-movie-true-story-wrong-changes/
FACEBOOK FACTS
Originally an American company, Facebook has since spread to the whole world. Once based at Palo Alto, California, today Facebook’s headquarters is in Menlo Park, California. Statistics show that over 2 billion people go online on Facebook every month. Of those, around 1 billion are mobile users. Around 1 billion of those same people also go active every single day.
FACEBOOK FACTS
Anyone can buy and sell online at Facebook Marketplace.
First introduced in October 3, 2016, Facebook Marketplace mixes e-commerce with social media. Users need to be 18 or above to buy or sell at Facebook Marketplace. Marketplace displays items sold nearby. From there, you can directly message the seller for transactions.
FACEBOOK FACTS
Facebook doesn’t automatically sign you out.
You can turn your PC off at night and still find yourself logged into Facebook the next day. However, there are cases where Facebook does log you out. For one, Facebook only allows you to use one device for your account. If you log into Facebook on your mobile device, it will log you out of your PC.
The reverse is the same, logging into Facebook on your PC logs you out on your mobile device. For the Firefox browser, one security feature logs you out once the browser is closed, or when your computer goes into sleep mode. It also logs you out if you’ve closed the website for more than 1 minute.
FACEBOOK FACTS
Facebook Marketplace has strict regulations.
Illegal goods like knockoffs, weapons, and drugs are prohibited on Facebook Marketplace. If you think you’re getting scammed by an offer on Facebook Marketplace, then you have the option to report it to management.
FACEBOOK FACTS
You don’t have to be friends with someone on Facebook to message them.
Of course, they won’t show up on your contact list, so you’ll have to go to their profile page. To do that, enter their name or email address on the search bar at the upper left corner of the screen. Facebook will then show you a list of people that matches what you’re looking for. Select the one you’re looking for to go to their profile. Click ‘Message’ to start a conversation.
FACEBOOK FACTS
You can open Messenger separately from Facebook.
If you’re on a PC, then go to Messenger.com, and you’ll have an entire page as a chatbox. If you’re on a mobile device, then download the Messenger App from either the App Store or Google Play. Don’t worry, it’s free either way.
FACEBOOK FACTS
You can buy Facebook stock.
However, you’ll need to get in touch with a licensed broker. It’s the best way to make sure you’re getting what you’re paying for legally. At present, Facebook stock costs $187.50 per share. That doesn’t include the broker’s fee, which you’ll have to discuss in private with your broker.
