Facebook: love or hate?

I've never really liked Facebook. I only got it back then because everyone else did. 
These days, I hardly use it. I just check it occasionally, but that's all. I don't have many there, less than 40 .... so I won't miss any messages even if I don't check it often

I ended up having to delete Facebook. It has caused me a lot of problems in the past. It's badly effected my personal life and it almost cost me my job once.I've never really liked Facebook. I only got it back then because everyone else did.

A lot of social media has had this effect on many people, but I’m glad it turned out okay for you in the end
I am not really into the whole social media thing and found FB too intrusive in bugging for you to add more information. And I ended up with a lot of friends who were really just people I knew from the past and just checked up on, wasn't really looking for a permanent connection. And then there's the cavalier attitude to privacy and sense that the reason they want all that data is not for you to share with your friends but for them to share with their advertisers. At this point, given some of the remarks Zuck has made about privacy (or lack thereof), such as criticizing Apple's move to tighten privacy controls on iOS, I won't use any of Meta's properties until he is gone and someone less cavalier about my personal information is in charge.
I enjoy it but I don't sit on it all day like I used to anymore.
There was a time when I used to use facebook a lot and argue with idiots every day. That platform is full of losers. Not to mention all the fake profiles there. I no longer use it anymore until or unless I really need to do so.
