I have a much cheaper method of avoiding personalised ads on Facebook and Instagram.

STOP USING FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM.

    What's like FB that I can move my family to? Not mast. Not Lemmy. Actual long-form stories and embedded pics and stuff like FB or G+. It has to be normy Nana friendly, with no nerd bar to get over. Any recommendations?

    Same problem here, fortunately my FB feed is cleansed by uBlock Origin with custom scripts that block all the "suggestions for you" and other such bollocks as well as the ads. It's surprising how little content my family actually post, means I can drop in once a week and not miss anything.
