I de-activated my FB account 8 years ago because of this sort of crap!

You ain’t kidding. Several years ago, I got literally
trapped in the Facebook trap. In 2008, I went on FB to
leave a note for Sarah Palin, along with probably thousands
of other people. I’d had to “log in” to even get to go on
there. At that time, I could find NO escape. - Then the FB
nagging started; the pressure to get lots of “friends” and
write my “status” report every day. - Well, I fell down that
rabbit hole and struggled with that crap every day for
several months.

My cousin, a radio personality had literally THOUSANDS of
“friends” (only he’s not a big socializer).

Well, a friend’s DIL joined up and posted all her big
redecorating projects complete with photos AND then posted
their schedule, when they planned on being on a trip & when
they were returning.

One weekend, they returned home and they had been cleaned
out! - I finally did ESCAPE when enough people finally got
enough and demanded a way out of Facebook.

I’ve been out of there for several years now and no desire
to ever stick me big toe in the water over there again.
