Very much this. I downloaded my data from Facebook last week, and as you say, it's just stuff I have shared and not any of the tracking/profile stuff. Can't say I was surprised at all.

Right before deleting my account, I also downloaded my data. The most illuminating thing I discovered that there were several advertisers that 'had my contact info' that I had never dealt with in any way (as far as I know), including lots of political groups from all over the country, even though I made a point to never engage in or post anything even remotely political when I had an active account.
