I'd say 10 years ago, I lived on FB. 8-10 hours playing games. My
niece and nephew got me hooked on the games. I even bought FB money for
investing in the games to buy those extras they entice you into.

But alas I get on there once a week maybe. It's poor sort order and
lack of a good feed anymore has driven me away. My wife and I both
follow a lot of the same people and subjects and she is constantly
asking me how I see a post she doesn't.

I wouldn't cry if FB Died.


I'd applaud.

I have friends who get their 'news' only from FB. Yes, they're extremely
misinformed, especially about current events and politics. I have
friends who use FB to ask their contacts what kind of car they should
buy, what they should eat and where they should go for lunch, what color
shoes to wear with khaki shorts, and so on. I'd be happy to see the
whole thing collapse in a heap.

Oh, these are the same people who post a picture of every meal, as if to
say, "Hey, look at me, I found food today!" Well, so did a lot of
people. It's not exactly newsworthy. How about the people who didn't
find food today?
