ang naka-ayo sa istorya kay you get to choose what threads to open...ang FB, you get to see posts from 'friends' on what they're currently eating...nya they don't post something inig kalibang nila kung unsa color or texture ang nigawas...

Lucky for you, you only get to see that sh!t. I deactivated mine ever since I started
snapchat (yes I know I was kinda late on this) midway 2017 because not only did I
get to see food pics on fb, there were thousands of baby pics, cringey religious or
uplifitng quotes and lastly, friends and relatives quarreling among themselves over
political correctness. It marked the demise of people's intellectual capacity.

mingaw na dri kay naa may much "better" platforms available. and by better i mean not necessarily good material, tho.

pero mas entertaining sila. toxic mang socmed in general, pero discretion nana sa user if i-allow nila nga mkatuhop ang content sa ilaha. mas kuyaw kung mag totally off-the-grid ka, mawani ka sa kalihukan sa palibot nimo - ma-trivial pana or seryoso nga balita. knowledge is power baya. aw

why not go incognito instead?
around 3-4 years nko way personal posts sa FB but i still check it out for any dramas which i find interesting. di nuon ko mu participate labi na kung ma-display publicly akong activity. igo lng ko lurk sa kilid2.

Yes I agree. There are better ways of communicating to our friends/relatives and drinking buddies.
Snapchat is one. There's also LINE, the new Skype, WeChat, Twitch, IG (if that counts since it's part
of FB inc.) etc.

I too, had no activity in fb from 2015 till the day I quit. I still use for the older relatives, other than
that, it's basically a for-emergency-use-only app. Good thing it doesn't require the main fb app.

I got way more karma points via upvotes in than anywhere else but I know, that's out of topic.
When I got hooked to Snapchat, I went from less FB visits in a day to totally not opening it for days
on end and that's what prompted me to stop using it, yet I'm still well-informed with world news.
