You right but it felt like 3-years, maybe cause the dam pandemic is going on forever and it just feels like society and everything slowed to a crawl, so has my brain. I got that above from the oh Wiki
so every few months
Averages out to One and One Half year or 18 months.

Why not start a thread and see if some of the knowledgeable gamers of the board can help?
ZorinGroup is on Twitter where they do post occasional updates.

Well, I can't say for sure, I am not inside the brain's of the Zorin brother's, but I can provide a theory.
I myself HATE Facebook, I don't trust Facebook, I wished Facebook was erased off the face of the MAP, because its evil, and has literally done great damage to people live's and countries.
But having said all that, we also know that Facebook is popular, which means, we know that many use it. So using Facebook to advertise is sort of a necessary evil, to get the word out about OS 16.
But that doesn't mean, that were suddenly going to go all out and become social networking hazlenuts. Quickly get the word out, then leave. Nobody in Linux who has any self respect, should consider Facebook as a wonderful thing.
I stay as far away from it as possible. But like I said, I am not really a social networking hazlenut, so, yeah...

i mean free alternative to facebook any sites
Depends on what you are looking for in social Networking.
What Facebook has to "offer' is closely related to what makes Facebook destructive.
And also why Facebook holds a near Monopoly on that aspect of Social Networking. Facebooks brand of Social Networking reminds me of Social Experimentation in Fallout Vaults.
You can use almost any socializing app to talk to others. There are many out there.
