I've been using the News Feed Eradicator for Chrome for a while now so I can still get event invites without getting sucked in to mindlessly surfing the newsfeed. It's been pretty helpful. I'll still check the feed on the mobile site on my phone sometimes, but much less than I used to.
At some point it just became people sharing articles so that everyone could agree with them. There's also a lot of people being outraged about things and demanding that I also feel outraged about whatever the injustice of the day is. It gets very tiresome and is mostly a waste of time IMO.
That's not even talking about the clickbait, which I started resolutely blocking. Whenever a post has a clickbait title I'll choose "Don't show me posts from this page / site anymore". It cleaned up a lot, but even what's left just isn't that great in terms of content.
