This is the exact reason I shut my account and have not looked back since. I actually find my life a lot more social since as well, people now email, text, skype and phone me a lot more, and it's not all on public display.
Anyone that says it's down to your friends to correctly set privacy levels is nuts, that clearly doesn't enter 90% of peoples minds.
- Stormbringer 16y agoI have lots of friends overseas/inter-state. Facebook used to be brilliant for keeping up with them (ie mostly ignore them unless they're going to be in my part of the woods, and then use it to coordinate a catchup). Recently it has passed some kind of threshold, or the algorithm has changed, or I have too many friends using it to give too many unimportant updates; because now it seems to throw away anything older than about 12-13 hours, which makes it nigh useless for the one thing it was really good at (for me). (And yes, I killed all the app spam, so it's not that)
