You could always waste your time and report them. As if that will do anything.
My favorite is when you report them and then get a message from support saying that it doesn't violate their rules
Happens all the time on Facebook
Yep, my experience:
- Reddit: decent with reports, they often act (on certain report types) and give you an update when something is done
- Facebook/Instagram: most of the time there's no reply, and when there is a reply it's "doesn't violate anything". Only once or twice did I get something removed, and it was a stuff like direct threats to another user in the comment section
- Google/YouTube: Never hear back about anything. The reports go straight into a trashcan for all I know

I kept getting epoch times ads telling me how trans people were a threat to civilization. Kept reporting it and kept getting it. Finally in the report box I wrote that I am starting to call up Epoch times and yell at them about the YouTube ads now. The ads stopped, I am not sure if it worked or not, could be unrelated. If it happens again I will try.
just leave the service
Easier said than done unfortunately
I only really scurry over there for a few family members these days that it was hard AF to teach them how to use it back in the day
I'm planning to try to teach them other services but I need to find one first
I mean, they are always reachable using phone number and RCS, aren’t they? Or at least SMS should work. Just leave FB and talk to them using "green bubbles" and if they no like, then they need to install signal/telegram
You can use your secure and private matrix together with a bridge and enjoy blue bubbles
You can even bridge to iMessage, using pypush or an old apple product (iPhone/iPad/mac)
