Why do people post every single day about their holiday on Facebook?

You know the ones who go away and give you a blow by blown account every day on what they are doing, where they are eating etc, sometimes multiple times a day.
Are friends expected to read it all and like every single post?

What happened to privacy, what happened to telling people about it when you get home?
Not against it totally, but several times a day, what's wrong with them?
They seem unable to enjoy a holiday without broadcasting every single thing. It's horrible the way FB has got to some people!!

Some people aren't aware that some insurance policies include clauses that could void coverage if you're found to have been reckless with your home's security. Publicly posting your location or evidence that you're hundreds of miles away could be considered a breach of these terms. (found this on bpp media via Google search)
So I do a photo dump when I am home, one post, done!

Some people love to post and share, others don’t. People are different and won’t always understand each other. Some people love getting the likes and comments, some people love having the memory to look back on 5 years later.

It’s their account to post as they please, you can always mute them/hide them from your feed.

I don't know anyone who does that. Facebook is all advertising now and local neighbourhood groups.

I know what you mean , I generally like the odd holiday photos but recently a friend has posted several every day , the journey at every stage , here they are going to the airport , here they are checked in now having breakfast , boarding , landing etc
It's too much so I don't respond to all of it .
