90% of Facebook content is AI generated content now. I cant even see what my friends are doing anymore. Makes me want to just delete it. But, I do occasionally see stuff from family and friends, which is the only reason I keep it. Some people I only stay in touch with through Facebook. But seriously, fuck that company.
You won't miss it, you think you will but you honestly won't.
Getting rid of Facebook was easily one of the best things I've done. The people that are important will find other ways to reach out.
It reminds me of Facebook friends who are worthless
Pull the plug, you won’t look back.
Start a text group chat.
After much debate, we did .. On WhatsApp :/
I have only used groups to ask questions. Do people still do that, go browse the Facebook feed? I thought that's a grandma thing
I got a Facebook again about 6 months ago so I could post our wedding photos for our friends. Before that I hadn't had a Facebook in like 5 years.
Hey, you left reddit, didn't you? Do you miss that?
Here's a thought. Leave Facebook and spend more time with family and friends wether it be in person, on the phone or over text. You'll feel better for doing it and your family will be happy to hear from you. Deleted mine close to 10 years ago and have never had a desire to go back.
I have yet to receive a single chat message that was AI generated. Being able to connect to old college buddies that I otherwise would loose contact with is literally the only use case for Facebook
Im talking about the content on your feed, not messages.
Sure, but my point is that nobody posts anything on Facebook anymore. Its just bots and, well, maybe grandmas.
Facebook today is essentially just an address book to check in on old friends when you've lost their contact info
