If Facebook doesn’t float your boat, you don’t have to use it. Plenty of us do enjoy using it, for communicating with friends and family, and, like others, I use it for advertising the activities of various music organisations I’m involved with, as well as keeping an email list active for those members and followers who don’t have Facebook accounts.
If I see something I disagree with, I can either post my considered opinion, ignore the post, block it, hide it or report it. It does not stop me thinking for myself.
For more private distribution of family photographs I am more likely these days to use our family WhatsApp group, so that they don’t end up going to all my “friends of friends”, although you can create more selective small groups within Facebook too.
And if you want to ask a question or log a complaint with some company that has given you bad service, they all now have Facebook pages and Messenger: often far more effective than phone calls, emails or even letters of complaint for getting some positive action.
So let’s not ditch Facebook: you shun it if you wish. I’ll carry on using it, thanks.
