To think Facebook has dropped off a cliff lately?

Usage has been declining for a while but I've noticed this year hardly any of my friends post anymore, even the most prolific ones have cut right down. This has resulted in me hardly bothering anymore - what's the point if noone's reading? I've only posted twice since Christmas and the thought of doing so almost makes me cringe.Really not a bad thing imo. However, the groups are still very active so I'll keep it for them, I really like how most of them will let you post using a nickname now which I really like for privacy....

I got rid of fb ages ago and don’t regret it.

I noticed friends and family tailing off posting starting about 5 years ago I suppose, and groups became so full of spam they were effectively unusable. I deleted my account (which I had had since the days when you needed a .edu email address to get on it at all), and created a new one just for selling on marketplace. It was quite refreshing, although I did realise after the fact that I had deleted hundreds of photos that I didn't have a back up of - c'est la vie!

It’s just adverts and random videos of people I don’t know! I’d use it if anyone I knew’s videos came up but they never do, even though I know people who do post. Just ads ads ads
