I dunno about y'all, but my Top Stories are always completely fucking random.  I couldn't even begin to guess what algorithm it's using to determine them.

That's why I liked it before. I could just switch to Recent. Now they've mashed them together into one clusterfuck of randomly ordered shit.

Facebook has decided that the only people who are making interesting posts worthy of my attention are MAF and Shake. I pretty much only see their posts on my time line thingie, plus 1 real life friend. I guess FB thinks I don't care about anyone else lol

only 80%? I get at least one email a day from Facebook saying how I've got notifications pending. I think I get some sense of satisfaction by having something remind me that I'm not using it

Also how have I not seen whitewhine.com before?!

Yeah. It shocks me that a lot of people don't know this. It also shocks me that Facebook thought it was a good idea to default that email setting to on.

Post by: chronovore on September 21, 2011, 04:54:05 AM
Facebook has always been a bit messed up. It is trying to take something extremely fuzzy and make it both clear and comprehensible, while still usable by average people.

THAT'S UNPOSSIBLE.

in more pressing fb problems, i've got people requesting to be listed as family members when they aren't really family.  some of them are my fiancee's siblings, but its like come on we're not even married yet why are you so eager to change yr status?  also now my bro's gf wants in, and while she's cool we're not even gonna be legally related at sometime in the future.  i've ignored their requests so far & i think i'm starting to piss people off.

So there's no full feed anymore? That's weird.

FYI there hasnt been a full feed for ages, now it's just an official bulletpoint.

Very stupid imho since checking up on people youre not so close with (anymore) was part of the charm of social media.

I've seen a lot of dramatic "I'm leaving for G+ now" posts on my facebook today. I don't see a problem. They swiped some G+ features and that's what's most significant about the new stuff.

I wonder if the people who get most upset at UI changes on major websites are the types who memorize how to use things by rote. The only functionality changes I get angry about are the ones that actively get in the way of what I'm trying to do, like how eBay thinks I want to use "Best Match" sorting all the time.

if you want your feed to go back to normal go to your account and go to notifications. At the top right is a box that says email frequency. Uncheck that box and your feed will show all the posts again. Then go to your home page and anything in the "Top Stories" click on the down arrow in the upper right and "unmark as top story"

Repost from facebook spam, pretty much worked though.

I don't understand why people won't switch to G+.  Facebook is such a fucking mess these days.  If I could get my family alone to switch I could delete my FB permanently. 
I never use the actual Facebook site.  The mobile site and WP7 app work just fine so I never notice all the shit people complain about.

I usually don't even notice these redesigns until people start pointing them out / complaining about them. I didn't realize it had changed until I saw this thread, and I'm still not sure what exactly the differences are. It just looked sort of blue-ish before and it's sort of blue-ish now, so basically, no change.
