Left back when they announced the API changes and never looked back.

But one of the biggest issue with these people is the total disconnect from actual normal life and communities. They see everything as computer program or tech device.

Just like that millionaire trying to extend his life with thousand dollars worth of pills a month and daily schedules impossible to normal working people. When what research has shown is that people who live the longest have plant based diets and are active members of their communities.
