Goodness knows every single one is tracking you in some way or another or waiting to trick you with some dark pattern.
This isn’t meant to be sassy or to criticize you. I have similarly trimmed back all of the apps I don’t regularly use or rely on.
I've deleted and re-installed Facebook countless times. It doesn't make me any holier, but having the choice of it there and choosing to go without seems like a stronger fight.
This does two things: 1. No more facebook feed 2. No more facebook ads
You still get to keep messenger as an extended contact book, people can still tag you in stupid things and pictures, you don't have to have that awkward conversation telling people you're no longer on facebook. I guarantee you'll never feel like you miss your feed. Nobody even has to know you've unfollowed them.
I've quit facebook twice and they didn't last. But I've had no feed for months now and I don't see myself going back.

I just have messenger on my phone, right now. It's a nice solution to most of these problems for me. But most of my facebook tags happen directly in Messenger vs. someone's post that I have to go look at.
For desktop I have used the social fixer plugin though no longer do
Still haven't found the answer tbh
My most recent approach is to start blogging. If I like writing about interesting stuff I might as well do it properly.
Is that really true? Where did you get that from?
It's exactly the opposite about I've learned about how to help drug addicts.
There is, however, the advice that for drugs which can't be quickly reduced to zero for medical reasons, those should be stowed by a close friend (depending on the situation), who then ensures the dosis is reduced over time in a proper way. The advantage is that the reduction of dosis is enforced by other person, and that if the addict temporarily needs a higher dosis for specific reasons, they might get it, but first have to discuss another person.
