I used to like Facebook a lot. I would argue about politics there like a lot of people did in 2016. Facebook wss where I got my news for a while. Nah, I have unfollowed those toxic pages (e.g “Now This”)
I was bothered by my mental illness this year and I live streamed my suicide attempt twice and it was not pretty to watch. Friends all freaked out and tried to get someone to help me. I guess I did that because “that’s where people get to see me”.
A few months ago I deactivated my facebook for about a month and I maintained my relationship strictly over WhatsApp. It worked great. There was no pressure. I eventually reactivated it so I can spend some more time with a really good friend.
Now, like my Instagram, most of the pages I follow now are about cats, some cultural stuff, and a number of youtubers.
I still get to see what my friends are doing and that’s great. I still share pictures and updates with my friends. But I am not so attached to it anymore (and the stupid iOS app has been crashing every 30 seconds for no freakin’ reason) - Facebook team please fix it.
You don’t have to deactivate the account, but please clean up your newsfeed first. Unfollow pages you don’t want and clean up friend list.
Use the good part of Facebook and you will be fine.
