I deleted everything I had, which wasn’t much to begin with, and closed my FB account nearly a year and a half ago. Don’t miss it at all................

Unfortunately, Facebook is like the Hotel California:

I’ve been predicting this and waiting for this. Took awhile for folks to wake up. (Longer than I thought it would.)

Facebook is the retirement home of social media.

I’m not sure about the other causes/reasons for thinking negatively about those mentioned but I believe it has given anyone using them license to be as nasty as they want - without having to confront anyone. It sure shows here at FR - almost like people forget they aren’t using social media and just let their nasty moods/attitudes fly. I, for one would like to see a return to a kinder, gentler FR. And it’s a puzzle to find out the longer they’ve been on FR, the nastier they become. Must be old age setting in.
