Good. Frankly, I think overall that we are all worse off with all this social media nonsense. I am ONLY on Facebook and think I should get off that as well. Sure I can keep up with a few friends, but overall, I think it is a waste of time because I get sucked into pointless political conversations and click bait. Then I get mad at myself for wasting my time. That is on me. But Facebook sure knows what they are doing to get people hooked.

Facebook, Instagram, Messenger, What's Ap....everything in the fine Facebook family of social media is out. They're getting roasted pretty good on Twitter.

@Puppy Lips Exactly why I got off and don't miss it.

Perhaps it has something to do with whistleblowers and Congressional testimony.

@Mersha I very well could. I heard about that this morning, but did not get the whole story.

From what I have seen on FB the world would be a better place if it never came back.

I'm only friends with my family and a few friends on FB. Political and controversial stuff is never mentioned. I see about my friends growing kids which I enjoy as they live four hours away. See photos of the new babies of our two nieces who don't live in the area. I blocked two old friends who posted religious and political stuff. Just blocked them. So easy. You can block anything or anyone you don't like. I see more controversial and nasty stuff here on these forums.

I enjoy FB. I'm on a sports FB page, one for Jeopardy, a couple of others (one for Jade and Jasper, the GS doggos) and a strictly local one. I enjoy them.

I also keep in touch with a couple of friends this way.

If others want to pooh-pooh FB, fine. I will continue to enjoy it in my limited way.

I use it now more for a substitute Yellow Pages than for keeping up with individuals. The businesses around here can update their FB page much quicker and easier than their websites, so I find it quite useful.
