For those who find it too difficult to delete your profile, consider just unfollowing random people.
Whenever I see an update, I ask myself "would I go to this person's birthday party?" Answer turns out to be "no" 95% of the time.
Overtime, my timeline got more and more boring, and sometimes when I log on I would still see updates from days ago. Now I only check it once or twice a week because it's so useless.
- sharkweek 11y agoI use a slightly less stringent policy, "if I saw this person in the grocery store and they hadn't seen me yet, would I go say 'hi' or active avoid them" Deleted anyone who fell into the second bucket - worked out really nicely
- xux 11y agoYeah that could work too. Though personally I don't like deleting people.
- tajen 11y agoFollow people you don't know, unfollow friends, like things you don't like, change the email address, let it expire (If you don't log in at Yahoo for 1 year, they delete it), change the password, lose it, don't update your phone number. There's always a way back because they're really keen to give you access to your account, but as you progressively get bored of it, you'll feel like you don't need to install it on your new phone. On top of that, they now have to filter our false information. The only problem is to explain to the TSA agent that you've falsified your identity on a US corporation website, but I've given up going to US too ;)...
