Getting off facebook will not suit everyone, mostly because a lot of users will use messenger or need facebook to beventa in the loop of some social events.
There is way to empty one's Facebook feed and remove all notifications that are not related to messenger. The solution is to unfollow everyone, until the facebook feed displays "no more posts to show". One can then enjoy the messaging features of facebook without the bad. One can also view some profiles or groups occasionally but this prevents the passive consumption of feeds.

- adamrezich 9y agoor just use messenger.com. I haven't checked my Facebook wall in forever, but I use messenger almost daily to communicate with friends and family.
- emilburzo 9y agoSure, but then you lose the group/event functionality (which is great, if you don't need it)
- gaius 9y agoReplacing Facebook with a Google product isn't the bargain you think it is.
- emilburzo 9y agoWhat do you mean? It's a chrome extension that hides the news feed part of facebook, leaving the chat/group/event stuff without the endless scrolling.
