It is possible to create decentrailzed fscebook. But using it won't be very convient. Facebook users generate a HUGE amount of content daily (pictures, audios, videos). It is impossible store all of these in blockchain. Only profile information and maybe direct messages.

Media content can be stores in decentralized storage with accepting by torrent-like protocol, but it will be toooo slow to see pictures, videos and listen audios..

I do not think so. Facebook is a social media where most of the people want to communicate to each other and therefore, it is hard to communicate with someone does not want to provide their identity. However, I do not like face book very much because facebook requires users to provide nearly everything about themselves in order to use facebook

I think it is possible but there are lots of problems. 1. The server? It takes a supercomputer for this tasks. How it will be manage if will be decentralized? 2. How about the profit sharing? Who should be the one to divide? Can we trust the creator or the administrator. But its a nice idea to have a decentralized facebook but how??

This things were implemented long before ethereum was created
before nexus and before EOS.
The question is, even if this things existed before why are they not used so much?

Is all decentralized all free no ICO , IPO, tokens or other shit to be paid:

You really thing that blockchain is needed for this kind of stuff?!
Why every developer tries to crates it own "blockchain" decentralized platform / product
instead to contribute to already existing open source projects?!
