by the time we have an artificial intelligence called rehoboam, i wouldn’t even be surprised.

telegram Time to switch no?

africaupdates Funny how America talks about Fascism and communism all the isms in the negative; but is becoming more so every day especially with this Facebook character, collecting your personal data, mapping out your family structure: if he was capable of stealing FB from friends: imagin

Facebook lost its influence.

This acquisition is a steal for Facebook. Wrote more about it here:

Nice!

kenniques Here come Giphy Instagram comments 👎🏼

Welp giphy’s dead now

That's 400M$ really well spent. It's not like anyone could use that kind of money now or like it could be put to better use. It's not as though there's a pandemic or anything. covid19 coronavirus Facebook

JFC.

Ummmm why does IG need gifs?

Truly turning the internet into Futurama's Internet.

It's really kind of funny, let him buy what he wants. In the end, he will have nothing because there's newer things coming and it will destroy him.

Bye bye giphy. It was nice knowing you 😭

woah facebook is the disney’s of social media

Good to know. **deleted**

Ugh. I liked that app.

Now we can post Gif on IG.

When's Zuckerberg gonna buy Twitter ?

Well that sucks

I bet they end up censoring anything they deem 'offensive' or 'misleading' - time to find a new gif site.

RIP GIF 🙏🏼

🤦🏾‍♂️

Too gif to fail

Damn now I have to find another app 👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿

We're going to have ads on our gifs now, aren't we? Goddammit

Facebook sucks!

Apparently Facebook hasn’t been impacted financially by the Covid 19 virus like the rest of the world. That money could have been used to buy a lot of PPE or food for struggling individuals. But I guess it’s his money!

BOOOO!

time to drop GIPHY

Jiffy

we’re not gonna use it

Stocktwits It will be seamless

What’s ur take on this MantseJr

yeah, that's an economy. Real credit to his people also.

Em kontunnaru ra.... Edhi padithe adhi

Well the left can’t meme, so hopefully now they have some ammunition to use.😂😂😂😂😂🤣

Facebook sucks

Well shit.

Oh great now zucky will try to control GIF

They should fix that thing when you post a gif from giphy and it makes a link instead of posting the actual gif

Everyone talking about deleting the giphy app, but have you deleted Instagram?

Why don’t you just create one? A new Giphy? Oh, I know why. You don’t let arrogance and ego get in the way and you recognize what they have. Awesome! Big Pharma & Biotech should be paying attention!

oh nice so now he's gonna track our text messages! nice!

This company is very overvalued

Stocktwits Facebook hey Facebook...

Can’t stand this prick

Well damn, another app I have to delete.

Need Congress approvals 4 any FB buys

africaupdates alsocalledIsaac as a pioneer in the GIF game is this a welcomed move?

Stocktwits Anotheronebitesthedust

Imagine creating memes all day and then getting paid millions for it

Do you know if there is any infrastructure stimulus money involved in the Democrats or Republicans stimulus proposals ?

😴

There goes the GIF neighborhood!

They should buy Nokia and ramp up that 5G network in the US.

So in other words....anything funny that conservatives like will now be taken out of the search options.

So in other words....anything funny that the right wingers like will now be taken out of the search options.

This guy is buying everything.

...changing the world one cat GIF at a time

Stocktwits Booooooooooooooooo!!! Booooooooooooooooo!!!

NOOO! Facebook why do you have to ruin a good company?

Ugh. I like Giphy as it is. It doesn't need to be integrated into Instagram.

Facebook sucks. Now IG will too.

Entrepreneurs in 2020 - We create to be acquired we don't create to be viable stand alone enterprises. This mentality is pervasive, and its a dangerous trend.

🤦🏽‍♂️Are they just allowed to buy over everything? Where is the competition? Break up these companies before they take over our lives like the big banks! This is what ewarren warned about!

Facebook ruins everything.

Wow 😳

I meant Plutocracy : 👇

He's on a roll. Better ban any speech on his platform against lockdowns to keep it going

LiveSquawk instagram will be troll city
