I don't like Facebook, but I use it for 3 reasons:
1) Events for certain groups of which I am a member, which are advertised elsewhere but to be honest I'm so disorganised so would probably miss out on them without constant reminders
2) Managing my company pages (basically holding pages with very little content)
3) Friends and family who insist on using Messenger
Messenger is probably the main one. I'm sorry but the standard HN answer of "ask your friends and family to switch to Signal" just isn't going to work, and I like them too much to cut them out of my life completely.
I'm certainly not "addicted" and would gladly delete my account if not for these 3 reasons. I don't bother with the newsfeed at all.
