The only reasons I still have facebook, are because I am in a group with colleagues throughout the state that post relevant information and to keep up with family.

Seems like now, its over run with people that want to give their expert opinion on topics that they are horribly unqualified to give opinions on. Its hard not to cringe every time I scroll through. Can’t count how many times I typed out a response to a comment but erased it because I don’t want a snowflake to try and get me in trouble with my work or some BS.

Feel like the best thing to do would be to delete it. Seems like it would be much nicer going about my business and not worrying what Karen thinks about school being canceled.

My Facebook has basically been nothing but a birthday card for the last 5 years.

I haven't had a FB since 2014. Basically when everyone's parents got on there it became extremely cringe and I wanted no part of it.

Not missing it.

Was GOOD from 05 to 09. Then, uneducated and those without couth took it to a new level of idiocracy.

Here come the people claiming to not have any social media while posting on social media.

If Facebook is affecting your life in a negative way, then you are doing it wrong. Life, I mean.

I deactivate mine during the week and have it back during the weekend. I like not having it because I don't feel compelled to check it every day.

Facebook sucks now anyway. It's just ads and loudmouths.

The only time I use Facebook is to lookup a hot chick that I see on dating apps to slide in their DMs. Has no value other than that.

Meh, havent used it in 10 years or so.

Don't miss it, but use sites like this to fill my time.

Probably miss out on some info that I should know when it comes to family, but that's life.

Deleted it for 1-2 years. Nothing changed. Didn't look at it when I had it, didn't look at it when I deleted it.

I reactivated it and still don't look at it.

So, the same?

Facebook sucks these days. Everything is either politics, ‘funny’ memes about something that’s happened in the past weeks‘ news cycle, marriage/gender reveal photos with some attention starved chick with her baw in his best Columbia fishing shirt, or people bitching about something they aren’t qualified to speak about

Contemplated deleting it but bikini season is coming up and Karen from accounting been lookin fly these days

Got rid of it about 3 years ago after the election cycle. Haven’t looked back since. Have instagram to look at women and Twitter to keep up with sports and other useless things.
