In contrast, I have done none of those things, but because I have no idea if anyone else I might have otherwise connected with or known has done them, either, I've lost nothing. It's not like I have no one to tell stories to or no communities I'm a part of. I just didn't find them on Facebook. People still tell me when family or close friends die. I didn't become unreachable.
- standardUser 5y agoI don't really "tell stories" on social media, I'm not much of a sharer on these platforms, rather I was giving examples of when it was a useful resource, and specifically instances where the resource doesn't have an obvious replacement. I'm not sure I relate to the idea of "lost nothing". By that logic I'd have "lost nothing" if I neve flew on a plane, or sat quietly in a room for 10 years. But in terms of pursuing things I do want to do, Facebook has been a helpful resource on a number of occasions. As for people dying, that for me has been far and away my most valuable use of Facebook in recent years.
