Ask HN: Facebook's Impact on Your Family

Did it have any impact on your family? Positive or negative?

It's apparently a leading cause of divorce. https://www.hg.org/legal-articles/facebook-has-become-a-leading-cause-in-divorce-cases-27803

Very negative. Crazy conspiracies, dangerous ideas. Facebook puts my health at risk by promoting this, but try conversing with someone who believes all that

What do you mean by dangerous ideas?

Dangerous ideas like social distancing doesn't work, there is no covid, it's just a flu, vaccines don't work

Yes, we stopped using it (because impacted us negatively).

Being FB user feels like, everyone is happy except you. Everyone is traveling all the time, eating only in best restaurants, what they say should be treated as an expert opinion and so on. Best solution for us was just to stop using FB. (I am still holding FB account to create test applications while developing sign in with fb kind of features)
