Happy Birthday!

^^Belated Cosign

I just switched to Timeline in the last week and a half or so. I like the layout, but the page loads very slowly and often when I'm trying to scroll down, it jumps back up to the top. Is this common?

I got it right after x-mas--it did that then, and still does now...but only in Internet Explorer (I have IE, Safari & Chrome). I also have problems w/ads on the timeline in IE, but not the other browsers.

The timeline on FB mobile is better-looking.

Ah, I use FB on Explorer on my work computer. That's probably the case.

beachville, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 09:08 (twelve years ago) link

IE still generally bullshit

valleys of your mind (mh), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 13:45 (twelve years ago) link

every time i load a profile-- any profile-- it loads it already scrolled down 7 or 8 clicks, instead of loading it from the top

why

One aspect of that article I agree with is that it will take something really heinous happening to someone (or a series of someones) as a result of Facebook's trademark flippancy as regards users' security for Facebook to maybe consider whether their privacy policies might be completely shit.

Edith Pilaf (Deric W. Haircare), Saturday, 31 March 2012 18:35 (twelve years ago) link

Well, maybe not "agree with" so much as "follow through to its logical conclusion".

disgusting status savagery: daily updates like "hi my food blog for today: pears, feta cheese, lettuce, noodles, some soup, crackers and 2 apples. More tomorrow". hiding's too good for them.

stet, can I add you on facebook? I have some important meal updates for you.

If stet wants to take this over, I'd be happy to fork over the un and pw.

"Note: If you chose to use this option to include or exclude specific people from seeing your post, then only "Custom" will show next to your post. People will not be able to see the individuals you specified."

I was told by a friend that he WAS able to see the specified friends... Is this possible? Am I doing something wrong? I really don't want people to see this. Why is facebook so difficult and frustrating?

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 03:05 (twelve years ago) link

that would suck! but i didn't even know people could see whether it was custom or not. i'm checking right now and every "custom" i'm coming across, i can't see any specific names.

JIM THOMETHEUS (zachlyon), Monday, 23 April 2012 03:30 (twelve years ago) link

friends told me they could see who it was shared with when they clicked on the "time" it was posted ("8 minutes ago" or whatever)

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 03:34 (twelve years ago) link

still not seeing any names

JIM THOMETHEUS (zachlyon), Monday, 23 April 2012 03:40 (twelve years ago) link

i've noticed this happens sometimes - my guess would be that if you use a custom list, it just says custom, but if you pick actual names to show it to, it shows there names.

just1n3, Monday, 23 April 2012 03:50 (twelve years ago) link

yeah it's a custom list with 15 people.. when my friends clicked on the time to view the individual post, one of my friends said "it looks like youre sharing it with 8 people" so some of them are visible.. someone else said it was suggesting friends based on who i shared it with. it's possible that this happens more often when a custom list includes fewer people. either way, i hate them.

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 03:58 (twelve years ago) link

them = facebook

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 04:01 (twelve years ago) link

sneaky fuckers facebook are.

they define "sneaky."

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 04:06 (twelve years ago) link

My custom list is an exclude rather than include (as thats how they used to do it), "show to friends except [LIST]". Seems to work fine, no ones said they see names.

i see... that makes sense.. i might have to re-work how it's set up, thx

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 04:13 (twelve years ago) link

If you can still do it that way, I dunno tbh! That was from before they intro'ed the "groups" thing,. Im not sure I can even edit my older filters anymore. Im too scared to try in case I break something (100% of my posts are filtered).

fix it with like some music glue (Trayce), Monday, 23 April 2012 05:05 (twelve years ago) link

i just set up a new account just to try it out, and from what i can now tell, hovering over the "gear" icon is revealing every name who i'm sharing with. it does not say "custom."

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 05:38 (twelve years ago) link

also facebook doesnt let you only "exclude" lists... if you try to do that it defaults your post to "only me" so that you are forced to choose a list.

so i set up a list that includes all of my friends, and excluded certain groups, but it made no difference.. it still lists every name in the audience.

billstevejim, Monday, 23 April 2012 05:44 (twelve years ago) link

Hm, it did (does?) for me, but I'd have to check when I get home, I cant fart about on FB too much when at work , I'll get in trouble :(

Basically, Facebook, the "MySpace" for posh students only...

A Little Princess btw (s1ocki), Monday, 23 April 2012 06:00 (twelve years ago) link

I just noticed that the hover text on 'Unfollow post' when you comment on a status update has the rather odd wording...

"You are currently receiving notifications for this item because you own it."

Is this just Facebook trying to be funny?
