I deleted my Facebook in 2016, and the only reason I've ever wanted to go back was for Marketplace and Events functionality. And if I wanted to keep up with people's feeds, I'd use Instagram (roughly the same thing, I know, but less wordy for me and more enjoyable).

Amusingly, some of my friends that use it for Marketplace express a desire for Craigslist to be popular again, if not only for the absolutely insane people on Marketplace that demand to pay $20 for an item listed at $300 and then start spamming you and making public posts about how you're a thief and scammer for trying to rip off a single parent who just wanted to get their kid a present for $20, linking your profile the entire time.

The events functionality stopped working well around then, so you didn't miss anything there
