        "text": "As planned, Facebook turned off some of its key APIs for posting and fetching data on Wednesday, and I disabled Facebook for Bridgy entirely.\nIt\u2019s a sad day. Facebook was the single biggest reason I came up with Bridgy way back in 2011. I\u2019ve always wanted to own my data online, on my own web site, but my friends and family generally used social networks like Facebook instead. I didn\u2019t care too much about dogma or evangelizing, but I still wanted to connect with them wherever they were, and if they were online, more often than not they were on Facebook.\nSocial networks are under siege in the press right now, so it\u2019s easy to forget all the ways they\u2019ve made our lives better. Not only have they brought us indispensable tools for day to day life, they\u2019ve also enriched our ties to many real people, not just those we care about most but also entirely new people, across the globe, who we may never have met otherwise.\nWe regularly look to big social networks for inspiration and motivation in the IndieWeb. We analyze and document features, UI designs, and yes, even antipatterns\u2026but more importantly, we work hard to interoperate. We may try to live on our web sites, but we still treasure and value the relationships we have with everyone else. They\u2019re still on the social networks, Facebook above all.\nI\u2019ll still use Facebook directly now and then. Friends will get engaged, colleagues will start new jobs, cousins will have babies. I\u2019ll still expect to see someone at a party whose name I\u2019ve forgotten \u2013 you know, we met her at that place, for that thing \u2013 and look it up on Facebook first. Embarrassment avoided, life improved. But I\u2019ll use it less. I wish there was another way.\nSo long for now. See you on the web!",
