Facebook has now made it such an ordeal to use their API to post LGF articles that I’m just about to give up entirely. It’s not worth it.

First, they basically shut down all API access to personal pages. You just can’t do that any more. That means I can’t auto-post to Facebook when I post an LGF article.

Now they’ve instituted so many new rules about using the API to post to an organization page that I’m just not going to bother. One of the rules is you have to submit a copy of your DBA or equivalent, and there’s no way in hell I’d ever give anything like that to Facebook.

They’re essentially closing off any way for people to promote anything on Facebook — except Facebook.
