The main feed is pretty much straight up junk. Real value (IMO) lies in the hobby groups, local history groups, community groups/pages, etc.

Here in Ecuador most of my immediate friends and family have moved to sharing photos and videos in private whatsapp groups.

So they've moved away from Facebook the product, but not Facebook the company.

25 here. Got rid of FB about 5 years ago. Never looked back. Never been happier. It’s actually cancer for your mental health.

I noticed all my nephews did the same.

I feel the same. Most my friends just use Instagram (for memes mostly). I like using just Snapchat for sharing photos with my close friends, which is better than sharing with literally everyone.

Of course, you still have people who's primary motive is to farm for likes. I don't see their attitudes changing anytime soon..

I stopped following any groups or pages, and I'm only friends with people who I'm on a first name basis with. This is probably Facebook as originally intended. The signal to noise ratio is only middling and my usage has gone way down

I mostly use it for family that is on there. The "feed" is horrible, filled with ads and timely things always appear out of order. Stuff from neighborhood sometimes shows something from 3 days after something occurred higher than something today.

Yeah I don't know how people get their news this way... It drives me insane that it'll consistently show me weather from 4 days ago but not today. NOT USEFUL.

I just got rid of mine. Only ever used it during holidays, birthdays, and things like that.
