I joined to stay in touch with my daughters a LONG time ago. I find that it serves very little purpose for me any more. The last couple of weeks I’ve considered removing the app from my phone and just going there in the browser in my phone like I do with my home computer. Which is hardly ever. I’m tired of always seeing notifications and they are either things I don’t care about or they are COMPLETELY irrelevant to me.
I do have a reputation for taking good pictures and I suppose that ego-stroke is why I’m there at all any more.
I’ve heard the Facebook app is notoriously bad for privacy, even if you aren’t using it. I normally use my browser to reach it on my Windows machine. I looked at the app, and was shocked that it was nearly 500MB in size.
I use it — mostly lurking, rarely posting/liking — mostly to keep up with family/friends and a couple of interest groups (Free Republic being one).
