For a while I couldn't understand this "delete facebook" trend. I've had a Facebook account forever, but have never felt the desire to waste my life endlessly reading garbage on there. I set it up to give me notifications in three cases: when someone contacts my business page, and when my wife or my mom posts something (the latter being very infrequent, usually pictures of my kids!) Otherwise I use it for a few local groups I care about (motorsports mostly) and to look up an old friend occasionally. Occasionally I'll glance through my feed when doing one of those other things—maybe once a month or so?
But now that I think about it, it's obviously like any addiction. An alcoholic can't just have a beer every once in a while, and I'm sure it's just as unhealthy for a lot of people to have Facebook on their phones. So, this sounds like a healthy trend.
