Agreed. I’ve turned off Facebook notifications years ago after they were spamming the heck out of me. A friend of a friend added a photo wow Facebook. It just became too much. Now I log onto Facebook a few times a month to usually about 30-40 notifications I often click once to clear but often don’t read through them. They are so desperate to have us engage with the screen.

They started texting me that I had notifications. I'm pretty sure I provided my phone for 2FA, or they just scraped it off my phone when I had the app installed (mistake). This was also shortly after they had one day shown me some kind of dashboard where I could see the various engagements with content I posted. It just stunk of sadness and desperation. I closed my account after that.
