I long stopped be a user of Facebook.
In the beginning I liked the easy way it afforded me to keep in contact with friends and acquaintances. Then it included more and more "other" stuff, and I just lost interest in it. Shame really. In the beginning it was so useful and I honestly did not mind being shown some ads in exchange for that.
But now my data would be used not only to selects ads but also the other content, blurring the difference between what is an ad and what is "content". Facebook lost its way, and it looks like they're not looking for a path back.
- wussboy 4y agoI log in to Facebook about once a year, and my feed is just a panel of outrage. It's exhausting just thinking about it. But I do genuinely miss the early days when it was just the stuff my friends and family were doing, a great way to keep in touch. But no more.
- chasd00 4y agoi use facebook in a write-only mode. I just post pictures of various life events ( vacation, bdays, those kinds of things) for my family to see. I don't think i've ever gone to facebook to consume content. edit: well, i do goto facebook marketplace when looking for things to buy like tools or computer parts.
