Not that the ‘social’ part was ever very good in the first place, but they are right, it’s not social anymore.

the social part was phenomenal back in the day. when facebook took off I reconnected (and stayed connected) with a lot of people. my “feed” was nothing but posts from my friends and family that I cared about. I extensively used DM to talk to my friends privately. everyone got hooked on it purely because it was as social as it gets outside of real life

		Perhaps it’s just me. I’m not a very social person, and it seemed like I had to reconnect with people I had gladly forgotten, or ended up having arguments with people I barely knew but had somehow ‘friended’, or with their friends. I first deleted their app from my phone, then I unfollowed almost everyone and eventually I deleted my account some 3-4 years ago, in what was perhaps the best decision of this century for me.
