Good call, and clearly explained. For local news especially, owning the relationship with readers matters. Hope the newsletter and site pick up the slack. Is there an RSS feed for people who'd rather follow without an account?

I can't believe that all publishers and artists aren't doing this yet. I'm halfway through downloading and deleting years of activity from the facebook page. This is hard to do.

Wow, thank you so much for listing the many dangers of not leaving. I keep waiting for meta to retract this threatening announcement, and they well might do that. But who can wait around for that?

"In Meta’s upcoming terms on Oct. 30, 2026 (as below), if any enterprise has any type of presence on Facebook or Instagram, then Meta and their cronies—and their AI bots—have a right to scrape away that business’s content published outside of Meta and sell or use it in competing business products"
