Why would you want to unfollow your own friends? To me, that's always been the one useful feature of Facebook.

So you don't see the opinions that make you hate them and end the friendship over thoughts that would never be uttered if it were just the two of you.

If I'm interacting with my friends on facebook, it means I'm spending irreplaceable moments of my life looking at a screen and not spending it with them in the real world.

Even worse, I'm helping Facebook make money that they'll use to further harm society. It's a lose-lose.

It's easy when you don't have any.

The problem is FB uses that to suggest content from their friends. Then you get random stuff from randos
