As of now, Friendster’s sign-up page is still there if you want early access. Interestingly, there haven’t been any changes or updates since CNN first talked about it.
With Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger having recent problems, many Filipinos are talking online about missing the good old days of Friendster.
Almost two years ago, a fake Friendster website got people excited, but this time it’s on the real Friendster.com, making it more believable. It seems like people’s wishes might finally come true.
But, be careful. In 2022, GamingPH warned against signing up for Friendster on a fake site with a simple look and tabs for blog, members, groups, and forums. There’s a chance your account details could be at risk.
