Facebook bends the rules of audience engagement to its advantage

Facebook gets about 10 minutes of my time each day, thanks to heavily muting many friends' posts, FB Purity, and uBlock.

Meanwhile, Tesla has 120 minutes of my time each day. I'm fine with that.

I am not someone who uses facebook, if you would not mind could you explain briefly what you mean by "muting friends posts"?

You can "unfollow" people that you have added, so that their posts no longer show up on your news feed. You still have them added as a friend, you just don't see their posts without visiting their profile page.
