Just don't use Fakebook
tbf some developing countries still use facebook daily, if youre from the west its easy to say to just log out and delete your account, but if youre from one of those countries its just hard to cut that out you know. but yeah fuck facebook
I live in Turkey and the only people using Facebook here are really old boomers. Everyone else uses Tiktok.
Well i live in georgia and everyone, including the gen z, use fb. But yeah it depends on the country. If i had it my way i would delete every social media account that i have but idk feels like a very big move and i want people to easily contact me without them downloading signal or something similar they dont use.
