I have no idea what that means, but okay. I quit about a decade ago and have since tried a couple times to "get back into it" so I could keep up better with family/friends, but was unable to muster the desire after a day or 2 and would end up forgetting. Doesn't really feel like I'm missing much overall.

Virtue signalling means that you want to appear like you're better than you actually are, at least in public.

So it means that Zuck thinks people who leave Meta are actually scum, they just want to look nice to others.

If he thinks I'm scum, that works for me!

Mark Zuckerberg’s opinions on ethics and morality are very important to me.

(I won a bet with myself. I managed to type that whole sentence without bursting into laughter.)

Actually, I'm okay with that. I signaled my virtue, and I hope that you will, too.

Some people may leave our platforms for virtue signaling

anyone who quits Meta is 'virtue signaling'

These are not the same thing. Just a blatant lie.

I wasn't going to bother, but this kind of makes me want to delete my Facebook account.

Give me reasons to stay. I ret really annoyed by all the garbage my friends share and thus how little value you provide. give me value and I'll stay. Simple as that.

I heard he also goes to AAnon meetings, calls everyone there a bunch of virtue signaling pussies, slams a beer and walks out.
