Facebook can be useful. I use it for family and friends and follow pages I like, mainly rescue groups. My page and info is only visible to friends and family. My posts are not visible to anyone unless I specifically make it so. There is no other way, so far, that allows such an easy way to stay in touch.

The trick to quitting Facebook, Ronald, is to first remember how we managed to live our lives when it wasn't around yet (assuming you're old enough to remember.) Life was simpler when we didn't know each other's business all the time. When I quite Facebook in 2014, I felt 'disconnected' for about two days, then suddenly I didn't miss the soap-opera-ish garbage that is Facebook on a daily basis. I truly felt liberated. I went back on Facebook for one last time, and posted my email address. I told my friends that if they wanted to talk to me, they could email me. It was my 'goodbye' message.
Ronald And Greg, I've Been Off Facebook Since 2008, The Algorithim MUST BE CHANGED BY Congressional Regulation, Watch a few Maury Shows and Reruns Of Maury and You Will Witness How Problematic and Toxic Facebook is!
I get it Cindy, but I sure wish there was some oversight. My wife is exactly like you and only keeps up with friends and co-workers, plus she has a page for the not-for-profit group she operates. Facebook would be harmless if all purposes were benign and there were no evil players. The sad fact is that disinformation and lies flow like mighty rivers on Facebook, while truth and reason stagnate like small ponds.

I tried to do without it. We rely on it more than an we realize.
