After two decades of sharing more online, it looks like we’ve decided to share less. New polling shows that nearly a third of all social media users post less than they did a year ago. That trend is especially true for adults in Gen Z.

I basically forced my wife to install FB Purity (a content sanitizing extension for Facebook) because most of what she was seeing on her feed were ads or pages she doesn’t even follow.
I left Facebook years ago because I would rather be a person than a performer and I only really have like 10 close friends. Most know my phone number and email address, otherwise they can message me at the LinkedIn profile I monitor but don’t use.
how do you keep up with local/town newd, club information and activities? all of mine post exclusively on the fb groups and since i deleted my account i’m out of the loop on everything lol.
Mostly through my wife who still has Facebook, but I also talk to people (in person) and read the news.
There’s a local bookstore lady that will literally not let us leave without telling us everything happening in town for the next month. Find your gossipy bookstore person. :)
I love being out of the loop.
