I left Facebook years ago and have no reason to go back. I can share photos and videos with friends and family easily enough. Most of the online relationships were pretty superficial as well, so I don't need them anyway.
Facebook does have some value, but it seems like the signal to noise ratio is very low. I'm not sure how rare my case is though. How many people in there 20-40s feel the same?
I feel the same. Most my friends just use Instagram (for memes mostly). I like using just Snapchat for sharing photos with my close friends, which is better than sharing with literally everyone.
Of course, you still have people who's primary motive is to farm for likes. I don't see their attitudes changing anytime soon..
I stopped following any groups or pages, and I'm only friends with people who I'm on a first name basis with. This is probably Facebook as originally intended. The signal to noise ratio is only middling and my usage has gone way down
I mostly use it for family that is on there. The "feed" is horrible, filled with ads and timely things always appear out of order. Stuff from neighborhood sometimes shows something from 3 days after something occurred higher than something today.
Yeah I don't know how people get their news this way... It drives me insane that it'll consistently show me weather from 4 days ago but not today. NOT USEFUL.
