Birdfeet vs Facebook
Facebook connects people who already know each other, plus groups, events and a marketplace. Birdfeet takes the group and friend idea and leaves the rest behind.

The short version
Choose Facebook for events, selling and family logistics. Choose Birdfeet for conversation without the tracking.
Independent comparison. Birdfeet is not affiliated with Facebook, and features on either side can change.
Side by side
| Feature | Birdfeet | |
|---|---|---|
| Feed | Chronological, all posts | Ranked, heavily filtered |
| Groups | Join, post, leave freely | Groups with roles and approvals |
| Messaging | Replies on posts | Messenger, stories, calls |
| Events | Announce in a group post | Events with invites and RSVPs |

| Adverts and tracking | None | Advertising and cross-site tracking |
| Profile | Handle, name, short bio | Full timeline, photos, life history |
Where Birdfeet wins
- No advertising profile built from your behaviour, because there is nothing to sell.
- A group post reaches every member in order. No reach throttling to push you into ads.
- Profiles are small. You share a handle and a bio, not a life archive.
Where Facebook wins
- Events, marketplace and messaging in one place, which is genuinely useful for real communities.
- Groups with moderation tools, files and scheduled posts.
- Almost everyone you know already has an account.
