Same. I dropped FB and Twitter several years ago. It helped that I'm old and never kept in touch with family through FB to begin with. Also, I don't buy crap I don't need, so I never used their marketplace.
There are alternatives, but as long as FB doesn't remove features that people use, they won't leave. They can't see that they're being abused, just like every other abusive relationship.
Have u ever bought a used car? Market place is kind of the only way to go, nevermind if you want to sell stuff. I REALLY miss craigslist.
Yeah. I only use fb for market place. Fb knows this, and its getting insanely enshittified every day now. I give it a year before you have to pay to use it.
Funny… the one thing I still use Facebook for is getting rid of crap I don’t need - my neighborhood Buy Nothing group is there, though I wish it weren’t.
