It has been almost a year already since I decided to stop using facebook. Tell you what, It feels great not seeing all these showbiz personalities, the faces of these stupid politicians, the drama etc...Would you quit facebook?, just try it and I assure you of one thing and that's "Reality".

And yet, given that the facebook algorithm shows you content that should hurt your emotions, not using the platform obviously can make your life less dramatic.

Facebook causes a lot of problems and headaches.

You can adjust your feed to see exactly what you want.

Let me know when there is an alternative to FB for keeping in touch with old contacts...

I rarely check my facebook. Although, amazon and others are listening in on your phone conversations just to deliver you premium advertisements. Should be a fun and interesting year.

I forgot the password for my Facebook account almost a year ago and to the email too. I had that account since 2009 and quite honestly, I don't find Facebook useful enough to create a new account, so I just never used it since.

It can get though sometimes, when certain information is shared there about my collage classes, but it is usually ok without it and I don't really miss it.
I just hope enough people report it over time that it gets deleted.

Facebook addiction causes a lot of problem in social life. This is my current problem which I have been dealing with recently. . I cannot quit using facebook. I hope I will be able to quit this addiction in the near future.

Yeah I dont like facebok much takes too much time and not much privacy. Too many connections and rubbish on there for me

i think the invention of facebook is just leading to the color revolution in the middle east.so it take effects~

There is lot more than facebook in life. Qutting is the best possible decision, if you cant keep it moderate (which is very tough). Facebook leads you to compare your life/needs/happiness with others, which is not correct.

Facebook is used by people who think their life is not as good as others. They watch it just to envy others. It really is a bunch of bullshit induced into our lives by people of the same nature as i've mentioned above. Quitting all the social media and switching to informational sites and forums has been the best decision of my life.
Peace.

I beg to disagree on what you've said, that would depend on the purpose for the individual user of Facebook.  Because if that is true, for sure for now no one using Facebook anymore but why up to now there are more users of FB, it is because they helped a lot to anyone in the world. Therefore, no reason fr me to quit in.

It has it's uses like staying in contact with people etc., but a lot will only post their best stuff on there: so their lives look more fantastic than they actually are which forces people to compare their average to middling life against theirs.

So you end up comparing your B-sides to other people's highlight reel which over time can be depressing.

To tell you what, you can always use FB without seeing those showbiz personalities and politicians your talking, it can be done by blocking their faces. The main reason why we use FB is to connect with our friends and family easily, anyhow, it is your decision to make.

I have not used facebook Imagine how many personal things you have posted in this account. Starting from family members, then the books you read, the kind of music you like. Your status is single. Then, what religion do you follow.

I agree with that statement though , although a lot of people using this for a reason or a good reason , some using it to discriminate others to bully. And its true our world is modern , using gadgets here and there , we face our selves on our different gadgets , were living on the world full of drama and fake , so maybe I will try to quite facebook and face the reality in life.

I'd love to quit FB but I have two issues.

One, I live outside my home country and FB is the only way to keep in touch with my old friends.
Two, I have small business and FB is great marketing tool.

Anyone, has a substitute for those? I'm all ears (seriously).

I have been thinking about quitting facebook,
But, I have not tried, I will try to quit facebook for a while,
to see if there is any better.

I was thinking that too. Facebook is really noisy all these unnecessary information.  Unfortunately  I use facebook for business
purposes. I hope that in the future there will be some kind of social network more assorted. Facebook can really demotivate you.
When you see all these fancy post it can really puts you down, we do not need to see every part of your life.

I personally enjoy FB.
Thanks to FB I can find my ''old'' friends from school or home city, 20-30 years ago see how they live, their family photos :)
Of course I don't like spamming, ads etc.

i cant quit facebook My virtual life is often associated with facebook, it is easy to find the sympathy, the comfort that no life is not

Why to quit facebook?, it it best social media that we have today. In there, you can have many friends even in different countries. You can communicate with your relatives in different places with just a chat or video call. Also you can greet your friends when its their birthday. And the best of all you can promote bitcoin in facebook.

Well, I have been using facebook for almost 9 years now and isn't giving me so much stress so far. It's for you handle and how you manage your time with facebook. It depends on how you use it. If you don't want to get affected by those people then don't bother to browse your homepage. I use it to communicate with my friends and relatives and it is useful for me.

I don't want to quit facebook. It is just a social media and it doesn't give me bad emotions. I think it is great resource to communicate with people. Social media became a part of our life, why should we avoid it and hide?

I just logged out from facebook.  I hope that I will be able to forget its password because it just gives me unhappy mood.  It eats my time everyday.  I felt unhappy and discontented on my life.  I will seized to facebook and try other social media instead. 

Sometimes I find FB useful for current events because of the news delivered thru social media. Very seldom did I heard news about the good acts of out president delivered thru giant networks because of bias media and all. That's the importance of fb for me, however, MOST of the time, I find fb useless and nonsense because of the netizens who fought and exchanged negative comments. It became the source of arguments, envy, worst case is depression.

different people diferent opinion. i still think Facebook is relevant, no matter how bad we keep shading it. I still have mine and i do interact with people there often

Actually i dont think you have to stop sing facebook if because of the few reasons you give as for me i use facebook to is follow pages that update news etc and i dont follow anyone in my account so it can just be a medium for you to be update by news or even some comedies which is a great way to distress. 

Well, one day I also tried to quit all social media. Not only facebook but also instagram. Now I use facebook again because for me it is the best social media to communicate with my friends, especially from other countries, but I still don't use instagram. it annoys me.

I'm more of a private type of person, so I do not use FB. I used to post on IG, but that was only b/c the site I use to log sports related GPS files was linked to it. You posted up your GPS bike ride data and the photos that you took during the ride was uploaded to IG then it showed on your Strava page. But now you can just upload a photo, so no IG.

Regarding FB, you log information into the site and they send you specific ads based on that information plus the data that you put in your preferences. Places you like to travel to, hobbies, sports, food, music, etc...  No thanks...  The government (NSA) also searches/extracts information from FB, there is no need to supply any additional information to them.

If today people quit facebook that will be the biggest succes in history of humans, 90% of people cant leave without facebook.

yeh is good idea i stoped facebook  reson is FAN page and politics post i not like politics and spaming more friends and fanpagers  facebook since good 2010-2015 maybe

I did not throw something like that, I did not even use it when I did not use it
I feel good too)
Refuse from social networks

FB I don't like I just use it to login to some accounts what you need facebook to login in with.

I tried, but then I still returned to it
Can you give advice on how to abandon Facebook?

I only open it to check if I have online contacts and that's also where we do video chats (they're rather old school folks). But other than that, meh. I don't even follow my friends' and family's posts that much. I do check out the local news and go copy+paste ninja, opening the article and posting the content right in the comment section.

"Fake news" is a big thing in my country and because of Zuckerberg's free access scheme, the site has been used for propaganda. People on "free data" can only see headlines and comments and that's where trolls profit from. For the mainstream media, they can always come up with clickbaity headlines. For the paid trolls, they can just saturate the comment sections with lies and the people can't check for themselves. I've even seen trolls saying that the article was saying so and so and the poor people will have no way to confirm.

I'm trying to finish with Facebook
I go as rarely as possible, so as not to drag out and sit there 24/7
I advise everyone to spend less time at the computer

I dont think so..this is the only way to see my love ones and friends what they are doing..even you dont see them for a long time because in a distance..using facebook is more fun

Yup, I don't earn money in facebook, Its just wasting my time. Most of my time today are in Bitcoin forum, by this means i am very optimistic of my bright future comes my way:)

At this juncture, I will say that i am very much addicted to Facebook and because of it, I am not even watching any news at all because i am getting all the news and information i need right on Facebook and its the best way to stalk people.

Well using facebook for me is not just an annoyance like what you always felt before when you used it,, there are things that could benefit me as a whole by using facebook, maybe you are right by somehow it feels better not to see things like that but it depends on you if you let it affect you.

Social Media as a whole has been a blessing and a plague.  It goes to show you, like anything in life, something built for good can be spun for evil very fast.  Besides the whole marketing influence that Facebook pushes on us, but it gave a platform to those that we didnt like enough to keep in touch with in the first place.  There is a reason why you dont talk to Jenny from high school...she was a bitch then, and continues to be today...LOL

I barely use facebook for the past year or so.

I unfollowed everyone except close friends.

About what OP is talking about feeling so good not seeing all those 'celebrities'. I know how that feels. I stopped watching television. I use TV now only to watch movies. No news, no shitty programs and ads.

Facebook by far is the biggest media that people are using. The gather a lot of information using the media and can express themselves. It is not really easy to just wile it out. It has been a part of people's lived in modern society

It's really impossible for some people to quit it. It has been a part of their daily life. They connect with people who are far from them using facebook. Many people uses facebook as well for their business. For examlple ICOS camp. There are couple of category you can choose and one of them is facebook. It is a useful media nowadays specially when people are modernized.

Kind of like "turning off" the tv in the old days. Can be a good thing if it's not your livelihood

   I did quit Facebook several years ago, dont miss it at all. I did never use twitter or telegram as well as slack and instagram, I also left local social webs couple years ago.
   I dont wish to leave a trace in such services because I beleive they are evil. The forum blessed by Satoshi is exception - the place where I am online

Quitting facebook its not easy. because some of facebook user business are they posting here. And facebook is the easier way to get information on what is going on in this country. the easiest way to communicate to other people using facebook in this generation.

I have a FB, but I rarely use it. But for the past month I have been finding myself login on every day, only because I sent a person a message. It's annoying. I have to stop that. But other than that I do not use it. Time is better spent on BTT.

I cannot quit facebook. If you actually do not want to see those showbiz, politics, etc. you can control what to see on your newsfeed. Right now, my facebook is only use for social media campaign. I do not use it anymore for chat, etc. If you know how to use your facebook wisely, then you do not need to quit.

Sometimes I am thinking to deactivate my account in facebook, but on the 2nd thought i can't because its also the communication from my love ones. Why I am thinking to quit FB? Because nowadays, social media is very complicated you can see a lot of pictures and videos or news that is not good. And also good for us if we dont have any idea for those issues. it is very peaceful. :)

No I don't, this is a my only social media that can shares thoughts and feelings for me, i don't feel like talk in personally but this is my only one communications of my friends and family, yes we have gadgets like CP but about facebook many other things you can see and learn.

I tried it few moths ago coz I feel bored to facebook. In my experience in using facebook dragging and dragging seeing my friends out of town. Seeing others very nice. Everyday is like the same things. Yes I admit using facebook is very helpful and useful. Facebook really great toward users. But sometimes users need rest of using fb just to relax and never mind others a little while.

FB is sucks! ;D

I have the feeling that the people of my age (25 - 35 yo) are using less and less facebook. I keep using messenger from facebook; But I barely never open facebook from my computer or my mobile. I keep it to chat with my friends. But I agree that there are too much useless information on your feed

And that's why it has become dangerous. Even when people can open the "news" articles on FB, many of those are of dubious origins, many just blogs from anonymous users. And then there's the favorite circular referencing. Mainstream media, for all its shortcomings, is still much easier to hold liable for their mistakes than some unknown people hiding behind a laptop.

FB has recently gone under fire in my country for deleting a newspaper's editorial cartoon that they have posted on their FB page. Like Google, FB has become powerful enough to affect our worldview by choosing only what to show us.

I slowly quitting facebook now. I only open my account once a week just to look whether a friend contacted me or relatives. I am also tired of seeing tje selfies of other people that they post daily.

Okay, quit Facebook but don't force everybody to quit Facebook like you do, they are using Facebook with their social media campaign and they are earning bitcoins or altcoins because of Facebook. It is up to you if you don't like to see stupid politicians and some dramas in Facebook. Maybe you just read a lot that's why you always read a lot of drama's with Facebook. You can still don't read what you don't like to read about dramas.

I use it only in extreme cases or to discuss something important with someone I have not seen for a while and otherwise I do not even remember Facebook.

maybe i will not leave facebook because a lot of my friends are using facebook and i am affiliated with them just pass here

I was a really addict facebook user but since I started taking interest in cryptos, I left facebook for good and I usually login once in 2 weeks. That really saved my time and i m happy with it.

Well, the nature of my life is biased on using social media accounts. I especially use facebook in order to remain connected with my friends. I simply just know how to filter everything I am reading in order to avoid hoax and fallacies.

I admire your decision to quit facebook and I still recommend that you keep doing that. To be honest, facebook is something that we can live without. I don't know about the others, it seems like they spent more time on facebook than taking care of themselves. I hate to say it, but I know someone who was a victim of facebook addiction. Because of his addiction, he's unable to to do something more important than facebook and just can't stop himself from going online and check stuffs on his facebook account.  I know facebook keep us connected even if we are thousand miles apart but there should be limitations.

If you quit Facebook for the sake of your own peace of mind and quiet life it would not be a problem. If you want to do it, for some reason that is okey you can make the most out what you see in your account you can either use it to motivate you to become a better a person that you want to be and also to help others but if it becoming more wearisome to some extend and make you miserable then quit.

Well it's still for us to handle and manage out emotions towards the negativity of public posts that we see in facebook. It depends on how we deal with it after all. As we see such things , we can ignore it and focus and positive things. It is still useful to communicate witg our loved ones of for emergency purposes.

Since I can adjust my feed and decide what I want to see and what I don't want to see. I can't quit facebook because I decided to use it to make me happy and not put my emotions in somethings I can't change

Same with you i found my old friends and relatives that long time ago we dont have comunication.i cN communicate also my family that lives in other country.but i dont follow or add friends that i dont know personaly i dont follow celebrities also:)

For old contacts I have ICQ.
Many people already do not know what it is. Also on a par with Facebook, there are many social networks, but facebook allocates a global level - it unites people from many countries, which is its main advantage. The same Google+ and close did not approach Facebook and it is unlikely to do so ever.

That's true, there is some ways for us to avoid things that we don't like to see like to avoid hoax and fallacies. Social media is also helpful for those who are in a relationships that is far from each other. Communication is the best thing we can do with social media.

Everything related to internet ties you to Facebook, so its like  almost not posimple to actualy quit  Facebook, that's why is another kind of 'drug'

Yes it is another kind of drug because it is really addictive.  Some relationships are destroyed by facebook because it is just a click away to some people.  Many links are likewise connected to facebook that is why it is the most used social media site.  I will try to avoid using facebook. 

Facebook is full of dramas, fake news, negative vibes and only give problem that gives headaches to users. If there are only other alternative platform to contact and communicate with my old friends and old classmates,i will not use facebook. Any suggestions? :D

I quit Facebook for a little over a year, and I completely agree with you. Living life with out constantly checking in on all of the fake BS that people were sharing was a bit freeing. But ultimately I came crawling back because I needed it to keep in contact with people to schedule a class reunion. So, ultimately, Facebook always wins.

I'm more lucky I never stayed there. Therefore, and you do not need to throw anything)))

Allow me to congratulate you, because you have lost a lot of dependence. Began to have more free time.

I am using facebook maybe once a week and thought sometimes about it to close that account. However I am stuck on the problem you are describing above. I have been a bit around the world and do have many contacts which I like to contact from time to time. It was also the reason I started using facebook the first place when people abroad asked me about it since it wasn't so popular in my place.
If there is in near future any good alternative to stay in contact easily I definitely gonna close my facebook account. Any recommendations are welcome...

It's true that sometimes facebook sometimes is not good because it's a way for people to posts different kinds of news, even sharing pictures and videos that are to violent. However, facebook can also be informative. You can actually adjust your facebook setting to filter the things that you want to see. It's also good to avoid using facebook because some people are really addicted on facebook because people wanted to have the feeling of being connected and they think that having a lot of friends on facebook is also the same as having friends in real life.

Your emotion and facebook have not any connections... Sorry, it is your mind)

For me i don't quit using facebook honestly I can not live without my wallet my phone with internet connection with this it helps me for lessen my stress

I can't and not gonna quit! Facebook is one of the great platforms that we have now in promoting alternative coins or all of the cryptocurrency, as Facebook has so many users and it is a good source of news for the crypto community too. not all the dramas but facebook keep us updated also every day and even with our friends.Just block people and newsfeed you don't wanna see.

To quit Facebook is everyone's choice... it's your choice..if it for your best... for your own good... then do it.. but still other cannot live without it, because it's already part of their life and daily routine..yes we cannot control what to pop up in our account may it be politics, society and even entertainment news but we can control our response and reaction to it.. just take what is good and beneficial and and leave and don't mind those things that you think will affect your life and work..

Wow 1 year,congratulations. I prefer deactivating my FB account cause it consumes a Lot of my time just browsing and almost end up upset and frustrated with the achievements of other people feel quite inscecure. Lately I activated it again for I am incharge of search a venue for our team building . Almost all resort are found in FB . But after this Ill deactovate it again because i enjoy less stress life.

I tend to migle and have quality time chatting with real existing human beings. Other than here in forums there are no other websites im checking on. Haha

Though facebook contributed greatly to the problem of every nation but it's important can't be over emphasis. It still have it's own benefit such as exposing one to happenings in other parts of the world, meeting new people every day and so on

I can say I am not that addicted to facebook. I can go on without facebook for weeks. Whenever i dont like to see the posts of certain friends, especially the ones i really envy, i avoid this social media for a while or when i feel to down or depressed, or if i see myself doing shopping/window shopping again i stop using facebook. i dont like to totally stop using it because it's the only communication i have to my others friends and lots of relatives. Maybe it's just the way we use and the way we see facebook. It's not really bad, i just depends on how we use and see facebook.   

Frankly, there are times when I deactivate my Facebook account just to take a rest from the social media world, because there are times that it affects me. That's why I feel that it is not really healthy to use Facebook every time, perhaps every now and then. Of course, messenger is not included because it is quite helpful.

I think you have done right thing of quitting FaceBook. Because once you get connected with your Facebook friends you will realize how frequently you open Facebook and also spend so much time in commenting, viewing other’s pictures, playing games or doing other stuff. Many people know drawbacks of using Facebook but can’t stop using it.

Many people use Facebook day and night without thinking how much time they have wasted on it, and that they could have done more important work during that time

This has been one of the best decisions i made back in 2016. Reality will be great than the fake shows in FB or any other social media.

I will not quit facebook because i got many good friends because of facebook. Even i got my gf from facebook :P

For me I dont quit facebook,  because facebook is the way to introduced bitcoin to other people. 

I removed myself from FaceBook for more than 2 years and it was great, no friends and family showing me their lunch and checking in at airports. Since I started with crypto I started using FB again (alias) to connect to like minded crypto supporters.

FB is the early steps for the cryptoheads to get into the crypto space. I love connecting to like minded people supporting a common goal - crypto.

When im stuying facebook helps me a lot cause with it communicating with classmates is very easy. Sometimes professors posts the activities on facebook so without one it's hard. But now that im working i dont really use it that much, so yeah im also considering quitting facebook.

Last month I was on the brink of quitting the facebook, so much political opinion on my news feed. The only thing stopping me is I will lost contacts of client. My dilemma is my business thrive in FB because I'm a reseller. 

Good decision you can spend that time another useful work like cryptocurrency. It is valuable than surf around facebook

No! Facebook is part of almost all campaign. Facebook is very useful for everyone but we might have different views. We are modernized right now ang Facebook is one useful thing.

Quitting facebook is quite hard though , you need this to communicate to your family on different countries around the globe , but it has negative effects , us people we're like zombies though the only matters is our cp or gadgets , we forgot the reality some people killing just to have gadgets to sell. It's quite scared when you see people they showing at the public their different activities on life even the dramas and inappropriate images.

for me, Facebook have two benefits, the negative on and the positive one.

The negative one, Facebook now is full of drama, showbiz stuff, nonsense and other things than might ruin your day, BUT come to think of it... it you don't what to see those kind of stuff you can adjust it on what you just like to see. Facebook itself cannot adjust on you.

The positive one, Facebook helps you to communicate with your relatives abroad, or to your old friends. Facebook make your life easier to have contacts to people that you know. There is also things than may lighten your day if you're having gray sky.

It is your choice on what you want to have and what you want to see.

It really depends. I usually use facebook to upload pictures and use it as a memory bank, similar to a diary so I can remind myself of what happened during a certain date. It helps me remember birthdays as well.

ang facebook ay pede mo naman siyang ganitin sa mabuti at masama depende nalang sa sa mga purpose ng gagamit nito. pero mas maganda n gamitin ito sa business at number na ang communication sa family, relatives at mga kaibigan natin siempre.

It depends only in a user , facebook is the most influential site in social media , maybe in other aspects it will cause a lot of problems to people but for people who are using it in a way that they can earn profits from it , it cause a good. Most people are using facebook as profitable site , they make business in it and earn money from it.

I can’t imagine on stop using facebook because it is the one of the ways where I can use to join in bounties and by having the news and talking to someone that I having especially my love ones in the other country. Facebook is a big help for me to communicate and to join in bounties.

I never stop using facebook, but sometimes I didn't browse at all, most of the time im only using messenger. We can still differ the reality from fake, it just a matter of choice.

Don't quit facebook so you can get in touch with your relatives who are miles apart from you.
I think nowadays its the best way to see them, to know if what their lives is going on.
If there are posts that is not good for you, you may set not to see those posts.
Retain only the friends in your list that may help you to motivate or inspires you.

I don't want to quit facebook ,facebook i consider as a one part of my body I can't leave without facebook  very much addicted to it

I genuinely can't fathom why anyone would want to quit Facebook ; ) It's a great opportunity for getting the latest information on relevant trends and developments in the domains of your interest. And while naturally not all of these people are your real friends, you still can stay in touch and see what they are doing. You might just discover new things that might interest you as well. And besides, Facebook can function in a similar manner to LinkedIn I believe - when you are looking for a job, you can find ways of contacting people that you otherwise wouldn't be able to.

On a side note, if anyone has privacy concerns, to a degree - I can comprehend why you would ; )

Facebook is fakeness posing as reality.

I'm glad for your decision, and regarding to your advice i can't follow it because i don't have/had a facebook account, i know it is incredible and i am from Earth.

Yes that's right. It is true that Facebook is full of Drama, Politics, Funky. But Facebook is the most important and popular medium of the Internet. Basically I think Bitcoin is getting popular through Facebook.

I cant quit facebook because im still joined in facebook campaign in bitcoin. Just limiting my time in bitcoin  at not wasting my time reading in facebook.

Facebook is a platform that could be used in a positive way. But there is a danger that it becomes an addiction. Just like crypto maybe ;)

Im not quiting facebook because sometimes im joining in diferrent facebook campaign in bitcoin. Thats the only why i cant quit. Thats true facebook is full of dramas ill rather read the new all about cryptos.

It's become so ingrained in our society that many of my friends find the idea of quitting unthinkable

The idea with which FB was conceived was quite good, that is, to be able to contact friends or relatives who are in other parts of the world and who have not met for so many years. But then the platform took a different and unhealthy turn .... leading people to use FB just to post bullshit and that's it

That's really not a good way to use Facebook. I would really quit for sure if that is the only thing I do but it's not. The groups that I join are the types that are helpful like web devs, freelancing and pc gamers. I gained a lot of info because of that.

Man, I've never used FB. Not that I'm really into these conspiracy theories, but FB is so annoying with all these nosy questions and not letting me skip them. I agree to use any other social nets and even skype provided that they are not as intrusive

Yeah facebook as evolved a lot from simply a platform where you can stalk your crush and find out the latest gossip. It's become quite useful in society in term of getting informed. Important current events, annoucements, facebook gives you easy access to these

It depends on how you handle and use your social media account. If you only use it to read and watch news, you'll just get stressed for fake news and videos are everywhere these days. I think that it is better if we'll just use it to communicate with our friends. Better use it to get in touch with our loves ones.

I've been thinking about quit Facebook a lot, It causes lots of issues, however I don't do it yet because I use it for the bounties campaigns.

I think facebook is not just for dev bounty campaign alone, with us using facebook, we will know the latest news today from all over the country. by using facebook you can notify or know the condition of your family and friends wherever they are even though have not met for years. so in my opinion not everyone can get out of facebook.

Sadly to me Facebook is a work tool ... i can't get rid of it.

So i'm trying tu use is as scarce as possible.

I encourage you all guys to quit it if you can tho ;).

I would love to get rid of it but you got to admit it's really convenient to stay in touch with people far away. I also really need it for music promotion and related stuff so it's hard to actually do it.

I should agree. I have no reasons to deactivate my account, there's a lot of information I can read in the newsfeed, and since I happened to have contacts with old friends, facebook gives me access to make a call/video call with them. I am certain there are still many people consider using facebook for good purposes. 

You have the option to deactivate your facebook account but you messenger is still active.

I am a participant in facebook campaigns so i would not turn off my account for this reasons.There are a lot of options you can do if you dont want to see this things on your wall. Learn how to manage your facebook accounts.

Quitting Facebook or not is a matter of individual choice. The same way you have your reasons for quitting, many others have their reasons of staying with Facebook.

Yes there are reason, we all have Different preferences in life. like for others they just really wanted to connect with their family, Facebook is very helpful mean of connecting them to each other. May our reason why we choose to stay out of facebook is that we tend to just focus on our priorities and for me I tend to think that Facebook is not helping me to grow. Stay for as long as it helps and suits you,

Sometimes, I am thinking to quit facebook because nowadays technology / social media is getting so complicated and it really bothers me a lot, I can see crimes, pictures that really gross and many more. I think quitting facebook is an achievement if you really get out in it, and really peaceful. I heard from other friends who quit facebook for a long time they have peaceful life and they dont think anything just to be positive.

Facebook ruins relationships.I’m not talking about couples breaking up here, I am talking about simple communication skills. Nowadays a lot of people are far too busy looking down at their smart phones at social media to actually talk to one another and engage in real life. We’re losing the ability to relate. We even rely on facebook to organise our social lives and events. Let’s ditch the network and actually start talking to one another again.

It's great to leave a quick and easy birthday wish on Facebook, maybe with a nice picture, etc. It shows you've put in some effort. Although, wonder how much it really means. Would I go through the trouble to call that person? Or is it just a way to hang on to people who you never see and never speak to anymore?

I agree with statement :)

I could quit facebook, yeah and I've tried it before. It was my penitence during the Lenten season, shutting off my facebook for the whole week and it was rewarding. But these days when I need it for my job as advertisement and also communication for my clients so it's crucial for me. If I don't have my job, I can probably quit Facebook and have a carefree life free of fake news. :P

Yes it’s a great idea! I am going to quit Facebook too........

Studies show the average person spends 50 minutes a day on Facebook. That’s 304 hours a year.
Think of what you could do if you had an extra 304 hours every year?

If time is important to you then yes, quitting Facebook is a great idea.

Facebook is just a social site but now people are too much addicted to this. They're using it all day long even at the time of study, workplace, eating time and also sleeping time. For these, people nowadays are getting sick physically and also mentally. It's killing lot of our times. I've quit my Facebook account once for 3 month and trust me this 3 month was great for me. My result increased and also i became so punctual. 

I use facebook .. but I have stopped to post my personal affairs, I use facebook for the purpose of application login

Facebook is a social networking service and website started in February 2004. It was built by Mark Zuckerberg. It is owned by Facebook, Inc.As of September 2012, Facebook has over one billion active users.Users may make a personal profile, add other users as friends, and send messages. Facebook users must register before using the site. The name of the service comes from the name for the book given to students at the start of the school year by some universities in the United States. These books help students get to know each other better. Facebook allows any users who are at least 13 years old to become users of the website.

I don't use it, never really did.

It's pretty convenient to use facebook to watch people live with whom you have not talked for a long time - classmates, just acquainted with the old life. But for communication with people, now, like many others, I have been using various messengers for a long time, it is much more convenient.

Yes there are some links that are not good to everybody but it is also helpful for some for their communication if one of their family member are outside of their country, it is easy for them to communicate to their love ones. If we just know how to use it in a proper way then I guess there's no problem with it.

Why ?  ::)
whereas many benefits of facebook
for life
facebook is a means to interact with old friends
and also can be used for online trading
but that is very annoying on facebook is a lot of posts that have not been clear the truth
out of facebook?
in my opinion is the wrong choice
be smart in addressing the news

i am a bit curious for myself on how it will affect my social life. Just like you I have been fed up with preps using Facebook just to spread hoax and black propaganda about other people. But on the other hand I may not be able to quit at all because that is the only way i get in touch with my relatives abroad. Facebook had already changed the way we communicate and connect with other period. But i guess a period of Facebook silence for like a week will be the list period for me. At least for now.

Facebook and other social networks are very addictive, however there are tons of useful information there. I prefer forums

indeed most of which is not good in facebook, everything is given to the public through facebook, from the simple to the extraordinary. so I guess the stops are excessive

It is strange how Facebook takes control of our life's, it is like a game that we refuse to stop playing, in deed it is a serious problem and i will follow your example.

For people who aren't forced to open FB every day there is no need to quit FB. But there is a huge addiction factor, lots of people fall for that. In that case: Quit FB immediately. I have FB but I rarely watch the news line. Sometimes I do and I only see shared stupid video's, which I enjoy once in a while :)

I think it is the same as quitting, i'm not opening facebook for along time. But still using facebok for registering games. Only for registration, not for seeing posts or shares like the old time. It's just because i'm bored with facebook

I don't like Facebook, but it's my main form of communication. In my country they block people, because they post R.I.P. for generals. They have access to all of our information, but it is how it is. For now I am putting up with all that.

I'm considering to quit Facebook aswell. Nowadays there's just to much nonsense on it.
Form meme's, to temporary internethypes. It's just ridiculous.

I think its a good idea. Maybe i will try. Anyway since i got into crypto i spend less time in facebook than before. And i found it more good. Actually i am tired of seeing people’s faces whenever i open facebook. There people who never get tired of uploading and posting same faces everyday.

Precisely, i quit facebook 6 months ago (great decision), and the past week a friend suffer from a horrible defamation in his restaurant, being accused of homofobic discrimination. The video went viral (even when it was a lie) and now his restaurant is closed due to the millions of threats again his life, his famili´s life and his workers.
Thats amazing how a viral publication, a BIG LIE, can destroy a complete family... and scary.

 
 I can quit it, and i don't use it so much , because i don't like social media , i know that it is strange but yes , i don't like insta or face :D  ;D

Very true, i find myself just opening my facebook and after literally two minutes i close it out. In a day i would spend about maximum of five minutes in facebook just to update myself. I've considered deactivating my account on social media but the thing is i really need the messaging app that comes with it to connect with my friends. I don't know if deactivating an account means the messaging app will also be deactivated. But hey, if i just check it out a few minutes a day then so be it

Wow that is nice to know. I will try that someday but for know I need my facebook to communicate with my family far away.

For me I don't know if I can do that because Facebook is part of our daily life.and  Some times people waking up in the morning  checking cellphone and browsing Facebook. This is the reality.

That's right, it will cause a lot problems and headaches but did you think that it can help us. this kind of social media can help us by posting an update news on what will happened in our country.

quitting facebook is unbelievable practice which people do not make. facebbok, on millenials, is an essential part of their lives. without it, their lives are boring and some people will be much prone to vices. like other social media sites, facebook is a worldwide internet tool that helps you to connect people around the world. so, if you quit facebook, there will be no connection to the modern world.

Quit means to stop on something you are doing or don't do it anymore.

Using facebook is a quiet helpful for me coz I was able to contact my long lost family member, friends and relatives.Updated from their present living.Able to communicate to them and see them tru posting pictures.To sum up, facebook is nice .

Use facebook in moderation only not to be addicted to it.Posted pictures and promotioins should be handle wisely.Not to focus on fashion seen on it.Remember that using facebook is not your life it is only a portion of your free time.Be wise and use facebook for a purpose.

Let us consider the view of other facebook users. Respect each reasons of using fb. There are more advantages of using bitcoin in fb. The more the merrier. Facebook is not good for you if you look fb as disturbances or destruction to you. But facebook focus on more advantages than disadvantages. Solving the mis to improve the quality of users. Without fb is reality, indeed.
Without using fb is reality too, and indeed. The decisions is in the hands of everyone.

I think facebook is useful because facebook enable me to contact my freinds and families I also become updated to latest trends and news thats happening around us. But I will only quit facebook if it is nouse for me. I will quit facebook if it only matters death and life.

 for me it is not wise decision because we have many benefits in using facebook. we can use it as a source of information, communication and other.I think we should limit using it not quiting because it we can use it in other way...

Facebook can help us to know more about the news and I beliave that the news is important to us to know what's really happening around us. Facebook is also a way to read some news everywhere inour country because many people posted what they see and what they know about what's happening around us and also many group pages of the news that can help us like for example for the students and worker, almost all of they are using facebook and that's where they get the news if they have no works or classes, if what's our weather status and many more.

Facebook has come to stay! I use Facebook often than Twitter. I find it more fascinating and educative. Makes you "current". Of course you might come across a lot of stuffs that you really didn't wanna see. But that's all part of the social media fun. What u don't like to see might be someone's favorite. I've never thought of quiting Facebook

If your not in the business, I would say better keep messenger. But if you're in the business and if its online then facebook is one of the major channel to increase your leads. The best thing to do if you in business is to channel facebook the right way. How many hours your using it and use it on a productive way on just killing time. Just be responsible and aware.

There are positive and negative effects of Facebook to us in our community.

Positive effect of Facebook is a big help for us especially to all OFW (Overseas Filipino Worker ) who travelled in different countries just for the sake of their families, to uplift them into poverty, this will help them communicate like chatting or video call, with this tool the feeling of home sickness will be lessen.

Negative effect is many Family are broken now because of it, some parents father/mother are using Facebook and this is where you can find different person and entertain them until time comes that one of you will fall into that person and meet each other, and if that happened there will be a broken family.

Facebook is okay for me. I like browsing in Facebook because there's  a lot of news there, latest or happening to our society. and also by Facebook messenger, we communicate with my family members. It depends the user if he/she take as advantage by using facebook. I know there's a lot of fake news on Facebook but don't be affected and first read it. Facebook leads you to a real world.

Facebook is one of the media that I rely on in my business world. So, if I was invited to stop using facebook as well as that person invited me to stop working

I suggest to not follow what causes your problems and headaches, you can filter what you interested about and hide or report those topic that not good for you. because I believe Facebook is very important now a days, to our fellow people who are long distance and also our family.

yes, I agree with you dev, we will not play facebook when we are dead. because facebook has become part of our lives.
we can know the news of our family and shabat wherever they are using facebook. so I do not think there's any reason to get us out of facebook

I respect that choice a lot. Facebook is pathetic and such a time-killer. I am hoping I can quit it also. Worst thing that happened to us as a society in recent times. Perpetuates a lot of mental health issues and insecurities also.

I love fb for the feture that one picture can be 1000 words (what a bout picture + words = n2 ?;-)

so we can exchange in a very quick way thoughts and ideas just ve got to love it

Wow, I am impressed that people success quitting Facebook or some other social media. I personally tried a lot but always returned using it after a while. And now when I look back, since 2007, for 11 years, almost every single day I was logged in to see what my friends from elementary school ate today or they went. I think it's not only a waste of time but also waste of energy.

I dont like to quit Facebook because through a Facebook I can communicate my family and relatives. And also some important information.

Facebook are very important to us they can give information and some important matter information and what happens in our society.

I love facebook I dont want to stop it. Because you can gather some important news what happen in our country.

I hate facebook especially because I am unable to leave it. In the past it has proved to be very useful for a few practical reasons I cannot deny, but most of the time it is annoying, because it show your friends like they really are, and not like you would like to believe they are instead.

Good for you if you quit Facebook! Its almost a form of addiction. I stopped using it years ago when I discovered how it can hurt you in the work place.

Your coworkers and bosses often friend you and look over your profile and postings, heard many mocking conversations because of postings or how one of your friends looked in the pictures or where someone went over the weekend.

Also it makes you feel like your life is boring when you have multiple pages of friends activities over weekends or holidays LOL

I don't need to quit Facebook. It depends on how to use it, everything have an advantages and disadvantages and I find social media quite interesting. We live on modern society thus along with a lot of changes we cannot ignore the fact that social media a part of our daily life. Take a survey and see the result.

All social media was built for good, but was spun into evil.  I think one day, we as a society will come back from this shit hole we built.  Until then, I stay far away from anything that makes me recruit friends for profit.....

No. I will not quit fb. I have friends and others in fb. Maybe not everyone have the same interest and similarity. If quitting in fb is good and helpful for but to others I think harmful for them. We have difference in life on how we deal the situation everyday. How we handle the struggling mindsets every moment. Let us respect others wants and desires toward fb and other things.

For me wether it has facebook or not its ok.I used facebook when i have free time yes it gives hapiness for those who are using,enjoying themself but sometimes it will cause negative effect for some.
Facebook can help personally by using it on a right way.

I feel the same. I always find myself opening my facebook account everyday. But anyway, I spend just for a short period of time. Maybe there is no harm in opening it for  a while. Moderation in everything is important.

For me , I'm not quitting Facebook because I can see everyday life of my family even they are in different places😃

Quitting Facebook ?that's will never be gonna happen on me . Facebook is life 😁 .Facebook is useful I've got a new friends a lot of friends .And also I do chats to my Anties , friends , and also ti my mom who work for us .

I agree ., I will quit Facebook if they erase Facebook in the world 😂😂😂 and that's not will happen.

I have a Facebook account but I no longer log in much. It makes me depressed seeing my mate have made more progress. I solely use it for business now

Quitting facebook for me is not a solution to excluding yourself from
the rest of your associates/friends.Why should I need to disconnect
from the social media in the first place? What is the benefit of doing this
when millions of people are already making good money using facebook
as a platform.The world is dynamically evolving with technological innovations
and inventions.The best is to make use of its benefits which really do exist.

I will never quit facebook because i use facebook for facebook campaign and it helps me to earn.facebook also help me.to communicate with my family members and some friends that works abroad

I think of having Facebook and most social media (excluding Twitter) as a necessary evil. If you use it to connect with new people and stay in touch with people you genuinely can't connect with in any other way (call, text, in person) than it's a positive force. I use mine mostly for business purposes. Without it, I would not be able to market my app as well!

There are a lot of advantages  and disadvantages in having facebook, honestly the decision is  in yours if you are going to quit, if you think that it cant help you anymore then quit.

This is the second time today I've noticed you taking the words out of my mouth  ;) :D

True, Facebook and Social Media in general is a necessary evil in my life. I barely use any socials for personal but I manage dozens of business socials so without it, I would not have the income I do.

What's most annoying to me about social media is the data farming and bombardment of advertising.
What's most useful to me about social, is the marketing data I can collect from there and the advertising I can do on behalf of my clients.
How hypocritical is that? haha...

It depends on you... social media nowaday are a lot of advantages  and disadvantages in having facebook, honestly the decision is  in yours if you are going to quit, if you think that it cant help you anymore then quit.

now a days facebook is one of the easiest and well known social media platform wherein that is big help interms of having intact communication with the outside world and one way to monitoring the current status of each and everyone etc the reason i will not quit using facebook  ;D

I think it depends on the person's personality and situation. For me I wont quit facebook because it doesn't affects my personal life. It's just a social media.
Facebook could be beneficial to me and not to you that could be possible, Like for an instance you use facebook to connect with your love one's in other parts of the world. Facebook is useful depends on how you use it. If you dont want to see those politicians  faces you can easily block them, or unfollow. Facebook is a collection of your memories together with your friends, families, you can review it anytime whenever you're alone. The soul purpose of facebook it to bring back  your memories  wherever you go.  It's nice to refresh some good memories.  Don't post your problem or pictures on social media if your not ready to be criticize, social media has been invaded by cancerous people.

our world is full of different means of communication, only in our time they have become more colorful and illustrated, everyone can appreciate or humiliate you leaving an evil post under your message, before this was not ... before, we used the telephone, mail and telegraph only for communication with the most important people in our life, congratulate your grandmother on the other end of the world, find out how things are with your friend in the far abroad, now all our young people sit on tweets, facebook and other platforms every second, meanwhile, It is irrevocable ... :'( :'( :'(

Good answer ;D pretty sure right

Facebook is a social network. Facebook is a double-edged sword. Can help us entertain, help us share our confidence, help us keep up with all the social news, help us talk to each other. But there is a lot of harm from Facebook. Those who want to be more interested, did not hesitate to do crazy things. There are some Facebook users to deceive someone else's property. Facebook is getting worse. Wholesale trade is a low quality product. Should get rid of Facebook.

yes its very good idea  are you know benefits

sleeping better
appreciate your life more.
productive and focused in y work.
Your closest relationships have strengthened.
Of course, social media still plays a big role in my life professionally, and a smaller role in my life personally.

Facebook as a social media as many benefits. It makes to get the latest news on town and helps in advertising ones product.

quitting facebook is a choice. it is your own decision if you are going to stop using facebook. no one advised you to use facebook. it was you who created your account. whatever your decision was, whatever your decision is and whatever your decision will be. it’s your choice, your freedom.

Facebook as a social media now a days  very popular site to us. Quitting Facebook is a matter who use Facebook. It's his or her own choice. If people properly use Facebook it have some benefits. Or if we can't proper use it can damages our life too. 

Not in my eyes, Facebook has helped me alot in getting information and connecting with crypto people and different groups, I personally can't leave facebook

Yeah i was planning on closing my facebook acount because it's just a time waister scrolling through the newsfeed and seeing  stupid stuffs and pictures. Sometimes i may even feel insecure of myself that my post is not as cool as the other's pos in facebook. Maybe quitting facebook isn't bad after all.

Another thing to quit is following the latest political shouting match. Believe me that's a bigger waste of time than Facebook.

Facebook is oneway for me to connect and communicate to my relatives in other country.facebook also help me to earnnin facebook campaign so no plan to stop using it

One thing i would miss if i quit facebooking is the selfies of my girl friends with the infamous duckface. I have a lot of friends in Facebook but only just a few are my real good friends. They would only greet me on my birthday because facebook just reminded them. Better to delete my acount, its just only a waste of time and energy.

Why would you quit using facebook? You can just ignore it if that's the case. Unfollow them and focus to your friends or relatives interactions. Instead of browsing up or down, you can use facebook for doing bounty and set aside things about celebrity and politics.

Facebook is my bread and butter. I can't quit it just yet.

I quitted facebook almost 5 years ago, it's useless, okay you can connect with friends whatever you want but it's full of trash and it made me loose lot of time, i was almost addicted that's why i quitted

I am on Facebook, but I use it very little, less and less actually. I would definitely consider quitting altogether as it's a huge waste of time and the popular suspicion that there may be CIA behind it may not be that unfounded after all.

Well I think I don't quit FB because you can keep your account, just stop spending every minute on it and I have an account, I use it maybe twice a month because indeed.  ;D
 
I have one solution remove all unwanted friends and keep your profile clean.
I have good experience with facebook I got new friends and new ideas daily make few but more helpful friends.  :)

I'm not on Facebook Because, because of this, many precious time of life is wasted. I do not think this is the best way to communicate. Here are the real friends-fake friends are difficult to recognize. Because of this, we are moving away from real friends. I'm not going to waste facebook unnecessarily.

facebook still the most famous social network on the world. I till use facebook. almost my firend do the same

don't do that bro. Facebook has so many interes things. I use it every day

The same as other drugs) You have to understand the reason and quit. No excuses. Facebook is killer for your time

Me too,  sometimes i don't want to open my facebook because most of the time I've noticed more videos and posts that are not good anymore. Nonesense,  violence are there.  So i just keep my facebook private and open it once in a week.

I think Facebook is very unhealthy. Most forms of social media also if used in the wrong way. As with all tech it has its positives and negatives but I think social media should be used in moderation like and dangerous substance

You can't quit Facebook if you never started using it in the first place.meme

I found some close friends on facebook and so I cant even think of quitting facebook to lose them

I am not so updated in my facebook posts, but I dont think I will quit facebooking. Through facebook, I can keep in touch with my friends and family. If you dont want to see some stuffs in your newsfeed, you can change your settings, just check it and try.

I am a social bird and quitting facebook will not be possible for me.

I am the criteria of people who rarely update personal items on Facebook. Or check out friends or be curious about others' profiles.
But to get out of Facebook, I feel an objection. Because on Facebook stored many contacts of my friends in the past. One day I might need it. In addition, many beautiful stories have been immortalized.

I slowly quitting facebook now. I only open my account once a week just to look whether a friend contacted me or relatives.

Facebook is on the decline. Use a separate app to chat- what a nonsense. There are more advanced and quick social media now

Yes. I am not on facebook and it is so much better and carefree.

Facebook tries to take as much your attention as it possibly can. It's what their whole business about :)

I made a new Facebook and only added friends. I didn't like any pages or join any groups. I only want to see friend and family related posts. So far it has been a much, much better experience for me.

I would love to quit Facebook. I can't stand it, it is such a time drain. My problem is that I need to keep in the loop with various Groups and events. Hence, I decided to kill my News Feed and disable all but necessary notification functions. Not a perfect solution, but feels damn good  8)

It's true to said Facebook is going to take my whole day. but damn, There are alot of things like relationships, Works, News on FB, so hard to quit! :'(

This topic reminded me how I wanted to to stop using facebook, because i waste a lot of time in it. Every day I said: next week I'll do this, and did not notice how it was 2 years already. I'm very ashamed. Now for sure next week, I'll quit facebook

Definitely quit Facebook for a while at least. Or use if for functionality. I don't think the aimless browsing has any benefit. I think it can facilitate conformation bias, Facebook knows what you like and shows you what you like so there is a danger you don't get exposed to enough varying opinions

I'm not using facebook app alot in the past 8 months. It feels great though. I can spend my time on more usefull things like this btc forum. I think that application is just sickness. That's all. But my question is how can I delete my fb account. Is that even possible?

I've been away from facebook for a while and I can see what good it has done me than when I've been addicted to being on facebook. Social media in general should be used for productive stuffs not just posting pictures and wasting away your precious time

quit facebook, quit twitter, quit instagram and etc. get rid of it and the new air will come. we lose so much energy, we lose so much time on these services, sometimes in the majority very useless. im sure new qorld will apperar in front of us. at least, we have to try, maybe for the beginning for a day and so on

Well let's admit that facebook isn't only about showbiz personalities and stupid politicians. It can also be means to connect people easily.  Though the problem is that most get too much into it. Time is wasted simply by browsing when it can be used for more important things. We should just learn the proper use of it i guess.

Just keeping scroll when you look something bad on your time line, its depend on us, actualy facebook always make me keep in touch with all of my schollmate and family.

There are also bright side of Facebook. I have friends from others countries that i get in touch with through  Facebook. And what  you see on Facebook depends on the pages you follow or like. One can also get information from Facebook.

When I look now, it seems that my younger friends quit FB but my older friends are still there.
I guess that maybe FB became to boring for them sand that they also don't want that their parents watch their activities.
They find other social networks, obviously, what is fine.
I still enjoy FB because I can see what my old friends from hometown or school are doing now, how they live etc.

I can but I won't. If you don't want to see them then you can freely block them from your newsfeed. I would like to try that but I need to use my messenger since I have important things to do. It has become a toxic world really seeing famewhores, fake news and any other stupid contents. But there are also good posts which would melt our heart, learn and be updated to the recent happenings to those people that really matters to you.

now our county temp ban facebook ,viber, some social medial website i doen't like facebook its very spaming methond ithink never any knlowge in facebook

NO, i don't want to try to quit on this kind of social media! i will give you some point why you should not do it,

this will provide you the hottest and fresh news that you cant see sometimes over mainstream media.
this is one of the best things that surpass telephone to communicate with our close buddies. even parents.
Facebook is one source of a bounty where you can earn a lot from alternative coins.

Dont quit Facebook, just make it better and useful!

facebook is a time Waster ! But few percent of people are using facebook for som meaningful reason and others are wasting their valuable time

no, I'm not going to leave facebook, because of this I make money and I'm updated to everyone.

For me no it can help a lot, because through facebook my wife earned an extra income, posting her product as reseller and it help, so there is no way to quit facebook.

Quitting on  facebook does not affect me anyway  instead I have now more time to relax, to talk with my family and a lot of time to do my household tasks.

Social media is growing rapidly despite has positive and negative effect of some person, why reason to be quited? maybe because they expirences the cyber bullying or maybe your content to be seen in facebook is not fits to your age,, that's why to be quitted  for,,,or either some content of facebook are showing the bad influence and negative belief  to conflict you as person,that's why to be quited too

Out of Facebook does not cross my mind, because facebook is an application that makes me so many friends and as a source of information uploaded through facebook. ;D

Same as you, its been a week or 2 since I quit Facebook and Instagram cause I feel like social medias is giving me a different perspective on how to live life. Because most of the pictures or post that I see is like a perfect picture of life and results to me that not being contented to my life and often compare my self to others. And I think social media consume most of my time instead on reading books to review.

But since last week that I quit Facebook and Instagram I start to have a lot of time to spend on helping the chores in our house, reading books, spend time to my friends cause before I used to be at my room and just scrolling through Facebook and Instagram. And now my perspective to life has change and I have a enough sleep today not like before.

try to quit facebook, instagram, twitter and the world will be full of new colours. at least, try to limit yourself, im sure, that will work, try))

For me, I wouldn't quit Facebook. If it's too toxic, then you can alter what contents you will be seeing in your feed or just lessen the time spent on Facebook. Facebook is really useful for me to be updated with the latest news/current events and as well as keeping in touch with friends and family here and abroad. It surely makes it easier to transact business or meet new people for opportunities in business, new jobs and events. It is a hub which is very useful for me.

quit all the social media, get out of the virtual reality, communicate with people in real life, get closer to nature and the world will surely change

Facebook has nowadays become more addicting than even taking drugs so even if I try I couldn't do the quitting

Facebook was created to express ourselves which we kept. Facebook has its own uses it depends on the person on how he or she use facebook. We should limit and have the discipline by using social media- Because of Facebook mostly families reunited and have the communication. by means of facebook we can find new friends and also give us Passive income by Facebook campaigns and online businesses. 

The same here. Life without Facebook has taught me a lot:
- How the people deposit too much into their cyber lives instead of the real one.
- How much time you can spend just reading shit-facebook-publications.
- How a lie can become a truth, and even viral, without constatation, and how people is willing to believe anything that sounds convincing.
- How free I feel without those annoying alerts.
And the last... how few truly remember mi birthday date!!!

Hi all,

Good day

Quitting of Facebook is not a big deal it is depend on the persons, because this not a compulsory that you need to use a Facebook,
because Facebook there is an Positive and negative side, the positive side you find your oldest friend even in the long years, and your relatives that you never meet personally and the Negative side some adds on Facebook is not true or they cause breakable of marriage. So Using or Quitting Facebook its depend on you on how to manage. I'm Facebook user also and I control using Facebook. Thanks.

Stopped scrolling in facebook for days now because of this forum lol

    Well, for my own opinion in quitting facebook, it depends on the people on how they used it. The creator of facebook made it because he has a purpose, to entertain people, to kill time, to communicate, to let out what's in your mind.

     As I said it depends on the people, if they think facebook is useless then do not used it. Somehow if they find it has a good impact to their selves they loved to used it in their daily life. If you do not like what is popping up on your feed then go to security setting and change what would you only want to see.

Do the Facebook died? Yes and no. It is more of a social network of baby boomers now.

Do the Facebook died? Yes and No. They own Instagram, Whatsapp and Oculus.

I have tried quitting facebook for some time during the past few years and i can testify that quitting something that you are addicted to is not very easy at all, if quitting a digital addiction is that hard then how about a physical one.

Quit facebook is a bad thing we are humans we need freedom to communicate each others from media so facebook is a media we need so i dont like to quit facebook.

I am now on a hiatus from fb. And it's not the first time i do it. But i still need fb to maintain communications with old friends and new friends. But whenever it felt boring, i will always take hiatus just like i'm doing now. And i already been blocked for sevwral times based on reports by bigots who overdosed on religious and politic fanaticism. It quite fun anyway. Hahaha

I am not using Facebook for more than 4 years now. Before that, I used to spend a lot of time every day in Facebook. I might have spend thousands of hours playing the Zynga games such as Farmville and Mafia Wars. Gradually I realized that the time spent on FB is not very productive.

I'm a fan of FB bcos of the creativity and success. I have an account but I only login like once a month or so, really at times when I have nothing to do. Actually its good to see old friends posting on FB which means they are doing great. And also serve an a reminder to me, I have not met some friends for quite some time so perhaps a call is a good idea.

Of course I think everyone got to be careful on their posting/info. Bad intention people are always waiting for a piece of right info for them to strike. Sharing too much is not always a good thing.

I HAVE NOT QUITE FACEBOOK YET BUT THINKING TO QUITE IT SOON AS U SAID THE PROBLEM SAME PROBLEM IS BEING FACED BY ME.

Why only Facebook, that's only the beginning. Try to limit the usage of internet and gadgets and you may discover so many new opportunities, u won't believe

Oh well, same here. I've been wasting my time on that farmville too and the backyard monsters.

But after that, I didn't know when was the last time I opened my facebook. I stopped using facebook when fake news, porns started to show up in my wall and I really don't like that. So I started to read more on forums than FB.

Quiting Facebook is like inviting depression into someone's life.

Not at all times but most of the time but of course i dont want to quit using my facebook because i need it. Thru facebook i can reach my friends and family.

I've been a facebook user since 2010 but then thinking of quitting using facebook because toxic people are starting to spread on facebook. I'm now more on using twitter than facebook. Facebook feels like too crowded already that is why I started thinking of quitting facebook.

Facebook itself is not bad it depends on the person who used it if they will use it for hurting others or they will use it in good purpose... Facebook has a lot pf advantage it makes the impossible possible now.. It help us to communicate with other person all over the world and through fb also we convey our feelings,  thoughts and ideas...

I really haven't played Facebook games or anything like that on Facebook for a long time, for many years my only use of Facebook is to check out some Facebook groups rarely, I'd have deleted my account otherwise.

Not yet

There are better things to do in life than be on facebook all the time.

I have tried quitting it once but it makes me feel aloof from the world.

Wow, that's great. I tried to quit Facebook, but I work in advertising and it's rather difficult to ignore such a big part of online media altogether.

I tried stop using Facebook too but sad to say we really need social media today in order to be updated from time to time event.

I can only just decide but never enforce it any time of my life -_-

Facebook provides great utility, but the hidden costs are equally substantial. Last week, I left Facebook; as It was one of the best decisions of mine because it kills much and more time of mine. Could not concentrate other thing while in facebooking  as I burn my cooking doing this. Social media speared fake news which harmful for mind that's why I just quit Facebook.

That's a good thing that you left facebook. It's true that we can spend lots of time on this social, doing nothing actually, nothing usefull at least.
But I noticed that I spend less time now on facebook that I did in the past years. I barely never open my facebook account on my laptop, only the messenger app on my phone.
 

Facebook is not bad. It is made for a good purpose. It is just, there are some people who abuse it..They use facebook to hurt other people. Facebook has a lots of uses.. We can use it to have a good communication in our family and friends..

Yes. I am not on facebook and it is so much better and carefree.

According to me using facebook isnt bad but we need to be conservative and then use it for limited time only so that we don't get addicted

Cannot think about quitting facebook. It is one of the major part in my life.

I agree. There are times when Facebook is not healthy for me anymore as well. Seeing the violence and negativities around the world makes me think and stress out. Not to mention those who chooses to post something bad and I know that there's something wrong, but cannot do anything about it because it'll only disrupt peace. So, I just taje breaks in using Facebook as well.

There are better things to do in life than be on facebook all the time.

True, social media became the place where you share things with others. I've also found out that whenever you're sad, at least in my case, looking through your facebook feed will make you even sadder. We tend to post the best and the highlights of our life. We don't often see mundane posts of people in their mundane life. We see celebrations, vacations and most often milestones. Of course we see rants about life and politics but these doesn't help you pick things up.

Facebook is not the problem the problem is the user of it.... Stop using Facebook if it cause problem to you but if not don't quit because  sometimes we will learn here.... But make sure you have a diciplene... Use it for legal purpose....

True facebook or other social media is not the problem the problwm is how the user use it.if the user share even their private life for me its not good.facebook helps me to communicate with my friends.and always remember think before you click

It was too hard to quit using facebook because you know why some of your friends are using facebook also and your family in the facebook some of them are it was nice chatting and posting some new pictures. Actually i'm so glad that have facebook because i can chat my family in the other country.

facebook for me is something fun .. i can meet with my old friends who have long never meet again

Former whatsapp co-founder made a tweet which currently trending and it advocates for people to permanently delete all their facebook profiles because facebook data mined information from it's users which can be used to influence people in so many regards especially in the last US elections.

Imo fb is the worst social media platform

Facebook, like the tower of Babel, was never going to last forever.

facebook is a dinosour, and soon will be replaced by decetralized social networks.
As goverments will be replaced with decentralized voting system.
Support UNIFY World Revolution

Well done to the OP. Quitting social media will free up much time for real life, wealth creation and time for personal wellbeing. Try to quit social media people.

Ya maybe. It consumes my time too browsing and watching craps. But i changed a lot aready since i started in crypto i spend less time browsing facebook now though sometimes i still do but i prefer doing something more beneficial and profitable.

Bro, we seem to be in same boat. for over 2 year's plus i never log-in after contacting ZUKERBERG in regard's to deletion of a specific fb profile of a deceased person who happen's to be a close friends. All my request to fb support team to bring down this profile went unattended especially, when i noticed that most of the deceased friend's keep posting R.I.P on his wall during his birthday.

i occasionally visit thi platform when someone need my assistance i.e recovering of old account or resetting of privacy ..ecc

Thanks

I currently don't see a future for FB, but they're a huge company with plenty of resources so they could always pull something out of their ass. My first advice for them would be
to stop raping and pimping their customers, actually giving a shit about your user base if always a step in the right direction.

It depends on your usage. As for me, I have facebook to communicate with my friends and relatives and stay in touch with them during important occasions or whenever needed. What I need with people who spread negative vibrations and might just affect my mood into unnecessary one is just to block them or unfollow them. It is really for us to manage it.

I want to quit facebook but I can't since some of my documents are in there and there are needed files that is being sent via facebook. but I tell you what I think facebook is one of the main reasons why I am feeling depressed. I think its because facebook is somehow toxic and is like pressuring you to be perfect everytime since many people are judging you.Insecurities follows and then anxiety. The pressure of media is bad for my mental health and it makes my life sadder.

Sosmed ala facebook indeed has been attached so opium in our life indefinitely. Every minute, hours, days and months of facebook is hard to leave. Either the magnet is what makes a hypnotist with it. I myself before this often complained and was about to leave the digital platform, but someone suggested that I do not need to leave the information warehouse. Except just for lazy and because a lot of important info there Fb should be used as a drawer that can be closed and opened

Facebook is for family and friends gathering of events to stay updated while far from each other. The problem here is that we wanted to have more friends as to the point that even those we don't know had been accepted as friends and we follow those showbiz personalities and politicians which i think no need to do that as we had expoited our personal identity.

I have not used facebook for 6 months. im very happy. There are only fake life on Facebook, and fake friendships.  people share pictures of their cars..  and a fake smile on her... a really unnecessary place..

I used it once in my life and glad i quit instantly once tried.
It starts to make you headaches once you access your account using Tor. Privacy? Forget about it. My dislike level for FB is same as for google captcha (hey bitcointalk)

Agreed. Facebook just causes problems.

I think a lot of peolpe still need fb to maintain communications with old friends and new friends. So many people used Facebook a lot of time every day. We really need social media today.

Now a day's many people have there fb account, it's very useful sometimes because we can communicate our long lost relatives, and facebook is useful because some news are posted in facebook, so for us that don't have much time in watching news in tv so we can see it in facebook.

It is imaginary world and not real. Why we should do that? Maybe to find ourselves and define what we want in life and what we doesnt. Life was much simplier and again more fun before social media.

For me, who have love ones abroad, no, I will not quit facebook. Ever since facebook is created, we can now communicate with my father everyday. We can see him thru video chat which is really a big help for us. It lessen the homesick for his part and we can see that he is always okay. It depends on you on how you will you use your fb. Fb campaigns also is great help for bigger money.

Theres an advantage and disadvantage in facebook.The great advantage of facebook is you can connect to people who lives far from you and store great memories while the disadvantage of facebook is you will get addicted like sleeping late and you get depressed sometimes because of comparing your life to others.But I dont think I will quit in facebook.I rather used it for good like a tool for communications for people closes to your heart.I dont mind those medias,politicians or showbiz personalities that keeps popping up because I use facebook not for them but for good purposes only.

Yeah social media nowadays is the source of fake news, fake events, fake people and etc. I have the empathy of this post since I am also a social media hater like facebook. But there different ways of viewing things in this social media. One could be affected by theses events or one doesn't care of what is happening on social media and focus on what is the advantage of these application. There lot of advantage with social media esp. facebook. It is a matter of how you view things regarding with the issue. Just ignore them and focus on what you can learn more with social media.

It is not big issue if you delete your account on Facebook if you are really depending of this kind of social network.Better talk vis a vis with real friends.

negative and positive in the world of social media is a thing that has been summed in the media it all depends on us to respond honestly I still use all facebook, twitter, and others but for a very personal thing I prefer to use telegram or watsapp

Peoples are quoted of facebook,but VPN address got facebook.

My Facebook account is closed because everithing transformed from a coll social-media app. in a personal  bussines, it doesn't has the charm tht used to have.

I used to want to leave Facebook because all activities are really disturbed, but it was very difficult. But after finding Bitcoin Forum, I finally can leave slowly

facebook used to be it was fun but this time many are abusing the good for a teaching quality and only divisive a thing and also contain advertising that no benefits at all, maybe the longer facebook will be abandoned.

I think, there is a problem with the benefits of Facebook.
01.Convenience : Facebook is a easy communication media. The use of Facebook is expanding so fast for some reasons. It is less costly. The users can make and upgrade their personal profiles. They can upload picture, multimedia, contents and modify profiles. They are allowed to post blog entries. They can have their privacy protection measures too.

02.Inconvenience : On the other hand, Facebook, the Internet, the social media and the kind of self-addiction, sometimes the causes of the damage, we all know. Loss of education, loss of family bonding, sports and physical labor.

It is for you to handle your emotions towards facebook. You can adjust the features of the feeds if you want to. Facebook is actually a useful tool in so many ways like a source of information and news and means of communication. It is helpful in our daily lives but if it is your choice to quit, there's no harm in it as well.

The "quit facebook" movement is getting kinda big lately.

Glad to see it.

Still if you dont feed your data to facebook, you'll still do it one way or another just by using the web  :P

If quit Facebook it will be harm to persons who earn money from freelancing or bounty programs and world communications

wish i had an account where i could have shorted facebook. ces la veiz my dudes

Quit Facebook  for me I like Facebook it make me close with my friends even they are not same countries same living with me.It you doing by positive is not harm and useful for daily life.But if you want quit Facebook for you own good it depends on you too.

If you think Facebook is now becoming harmful that helpful to you, might as well quit Facebook but as long as no reason to worry about, just enjoy being connected with friends and as an alternative to phone. Imagine how much cost it cuts your communication budget using messenger than actual calling.

If quitting facebook, families who are abroad will no longer communicated. People can't socialize and interact to the people, they cant share or even exchange culture, beliefs, food cuisine and friendships to the other people around us.

Sometimes facebook is good and sometimes not, because nowadays facebook is the way of people to spread fake news and its not good to see those things. But somehow facebook has advantage because this is the way to connect people from far places.
I think it is better just to use the messenger than the facebook app.

It's been a week since I quit Facebook. It feels like liberation ,Facebook was an Exocet into the bunker of my obsessive compulsions

Billions are signed up on Facebook and i am one them..yes, it has benefits like reconnecting with my friends and families who are physically distant. It is a medium to share my thoughts and ideas and i am also aware with what is happening around the globe. It is indeed a powerful tool in social media.

But it also has its downside.. like the privacy issue, although we can manage our privacy setting, there's a lot to be done to secure the privacy of its members. 

And personally, its time consuming.. everytime i log in my account i tend to be less productive. I am also aware that some posts i  see are either fake news or really non-sense. I

Maybe, i will consider deactivating my account sooner or later, for my sanity.

i think time is coming that people will turn there back to facebook with the way mark hard on facebook user

No need to quit facebook since I seldom use it. I just spend a little time browsing facebook.  I just post messages and photos if I have new pictures but not all the time.  I also get bored browsing all your friends posts.  Facebook has disadvantages and advantages.  One advantage is that you get to contact your long lost friends and relatives. This is the easiest and fastest way to contact your friends all over the world.  On the other side it has also an disadvantage, one is facebook can be use to humiliate your enemies. The sad thing is the whole world knows it. Another thing is it consumes all the users time.  They have no time for other important things.  They get addicted to facebook. You only need to manage your time when using facebook. Discipline is also needed.

I never liked facebook, it's not user-friendly. I just have to use it for bounties but I hate when someone unknown tags me on some stupid pictures or adds me to the groups.

Frankly, there are times when I feel that Facebook is just a toxic because it shows me things that I don't even want. There are also times that it causes me problems because there are posts there that are harmful to me, or perhaps even other people. So, I try to avoid using it as much as I can. I just feel it's importance when it comes to communication.

Oh it is. But honestly it seems to be going the way of myspace because of that. I have largely stop making posts there because most of my friends are of an opposite political leaning, they just ignore it. And if people are not going to engage or just post some crap, why bother?

Use it just as a form of communication only now.

Some 1,000,000,000 internet users do not use social media. Facebook is internet's junkyard/dumpyard.

This social network is very important for me! I communicate with people from other countries. Facebook is a very convenient application! I'm not going to deny myself this convenience!

Yeah social media nowadays is the source of fake news, fake events, fake people and etc. I have the empathy of this post since I am also a social media hater like facebook. But there different ways of viewing things in this social media. One could be affected by theses events or one doesn't care of what is happening on social media and focus on what is the advantage of these application. There lot of advantage with social media esp. facebook. It is a matter of how you view things regarding with the issue. Just ignore them and focus on what you can learn more with social media.

Deleted my facebook two years ago and few of my friends followed. Those of my friends who still used it told me we were being arrogant and elitist by refusing to waste our time on it. Now since this recent 'scandal' they deleted their facebook too ;D

I like Facebook i talk with most of my friend on Facebook i even use it to locate my long time friend i also have many new friend that i talk with people from different countries of the world,using of facebook has added to my knowledge

i already quit facebook and nothing changed
actually my REAL social life improved
now i have extra free time to, do things that makes me really happy
i realised that i was wasting my time on rediculouss things

Its up to you on how you handle youre mood for how you define what you see on facebook, dont give a different meaning every post that your friends do , you will not affected. but if you look like it stresses because of the readings you see on your facebook, it's easy to quit it. That's it. Its up to you .

In my opinion, it is good to have social media site because we can connect other people through out the world by using it. Maybe, we used facebook in different way but for me, facebook is important because this is the only media site that I can communicate with my love ones.

Good for you brother. Facebook just create anxiety to some of it's user due to jealousy. 

Follow me on facebook. Facebook is easy to turn us into a reluctant person, On Facebook, you can "expand" but can not "deepen" the relationship. Facebook is addictive, it is undeniable truth. Facebook is almost always making users feel satisfied and always want more: friends, fame (virtual), Like, sharing, comments, followers ... The more Facebook , people are more "crazy" for it.

I recommend quitting Facebook for good
I did it a month ago and that gave me alot of time to do things that really matters

Facebook!!! I tried not to use it for a week. But it felt boring because my friends used it. And my wife also used it.

You must at least for sometime to be away from the social life.

I log on facebook once a month, I usually spend time on facebook for 5-6 hours. But not more than 5 hours each month. I used Facebook the first time I used it, I started to use it very little in the following years. Perhaps the best time is to spend a little time.

It can be a good exercise as it will help you spend sometime with yourself.

I will not quit facebook, because it was very useful to me, it helps me communicate with my friends and relatives even in far places, second it reminds me about birthday of my friends so I can greet them, third, it was very easy to access and it is free. And also, there were many games there where it was very enjoyable and can relieve stress.

There are many things that I can quit but not Facebook.

Facebook is an important part of my life as it keeps me connected. Cannot quit.

in light of recent events, I will probably quit facebook

The world of today are getting toxicated. We have seen different bad news, negative statements, and stressful things recently especially in one of the most used and well-known social media, Facebook. With these concerns, some people are thinking of quitting Facebook. I must admit that me, myself, find it hard to quit facebook eventhough I know for sure that it sometimes do have negative effects in my attitude, personality, and mindset. I think because I see Facebook as a faster and accessible way of getting an information and having a communication. I know that this is not the only way but I can say that it is an effective way to spread also our good thoughts, inspiring stories, and motivational posts. And that I think is the reason why I do not want to quit Facebook. However, we must be disciplined and responsible enough in using Facebook.

Thank god as I am not addicted to it. I do whatsapp and insta not facebook as it has something more to get addicted to

The reality is Facebook is now a part of the life of millions of people. I remember being out of place when I still don't have a facebook so you are going to get left behind if you quit on using it.

I don't like this social media, I have it but don't use and feel myself comfortable enough

I quit using facebook myself, Too much spying, too many attention seekers, and people trying to show off.  Then most of your facebook "friends" aren't true friends.

Well I also did the same thing before. I was spying the same person for months and it just bothers me and hurts me every time I see posts about that person. I decided to quit using it to avoid looking and staring at that person's profile all the time and I'm glad that it helped me getting rid of that.

I created a FB page when I started participating in AIrdrops.  I only use it for airdrops and will stop the minute I no longer enjoy doing airdrops. 

I think it's a good move, if we can quite facebook. But most of us are addicted to this and it is very difficult to go away.

And also thru FB you can easily communicate your relatives and friends there in abroad it is very fast.By using FB is up to you if you gonna show your life on public.

I still have facebook but has been inactive for 2 years at all or no activity. maybe too many advertisements and many are using it as a political media that makes me lazy using facebook.

I also tried to do the same but ended up trying in vain. I am addicted to it bro :(

very difficult to get out of facebook, because facebook is a great social media network, we can greet many friends. on facebook also can do business. so I think it's hard to get out of facebook.

I'm not using my facebook. Not udated status or not sent a message for quite long.
There's some of my apps that syncs with facebook notes and I need to delete and get away from them. Who know they too would be leaked.
Though I still depend a lot on Google for my cloud needs and moving photos from it is now nearly impossible.

I think so far still need it to communicate or other purposes, but it is very rare to use it at this time.

If you are a student then its better to quit facebook or else it would become a hardship for your studies

i am thinking the same but lets accept the fact that once in our life facebook help us reach to our friends and relatives leaving far from us. Just because of controversy's sorrounding Facebook we will quit? then just think about bitcoin.. just because of issues and controversies we will quit? Just limit usage maybe ... just a thought...

that's right, as long as we use facebook for positive things this will give us positive things too, so I think I can not get out of facebook. because with facebook I can know my relatives and friends even though I did not meet them directly.

No not anytime soon, facebook brought the world together, disconnect from facebook disconnect from the world

for me, facebook just for fun.
From facebook I can see a video or a funny picture, movie and book reviewer etc.

I am addicted by facebook. I use facebook every day about 17 hours. I also use another social media but facebook is very attractive to me.  I can not quit facebook at this time.

Yes do quit facebook!

Look at the data breach with cambridge analytica on facebook! That is what we just know of because a whistleblower came forward otherwise we would have been in the dark.

That is probably the tip of the iceberg on the amount of data leaked.

I quite facebook over 5 years ago and have never looked back! Best thing I ever did really.

I value my privacy so very much and do not need some corporation to be selling it to the highest bidder on the internet.

I can do that on my own if I so wished to do so which I do not.

So why take that chance? Facebook is an evil platform that causes so much damage in relationships and even at work.

Anything posted can be used against you! I have heard of people getting fired because of comments they made or of photos posted on facebook.

So go ahead and take your chances..I sure am not.

Everything in moderation including moderation. You don't need to quit Facebook just don't obsess. If you fancy a good Facebook stalk of someone every once in a while why not just don't do it all the time. Moderation

In my opinion , Facebook is essential for online industry professionals, I hate to think of anything being required that strictly. I'd say that if you have an online presence, are accessible, and have a way of demonstrating the online skills which you are marketing/using in business, there are no social networks you MUST be on.

But that does not answer the question. And since quitting anything is a personal experience, I can only share my own. Before I entered social media marketing, I was only a casual Facebook user, and I did quit my personal account--it was just too connected. And it felt refreshing not to be obligated to check status updates and post my own. But as a digital marketer, I feel incredibly withdrawn and disconnected if I cannot access my social networks. Recent studies have suggested we are more addicted to social media than other vices like caffeine and chocolate. As semi-depressing as that is, I think it would feel like any other withdrawal to up and quit Facebook at this point in my career: hard at first, but easier with time.

Well if you look at the news, you d probably find another reason to quit facebook. This privacy breach is a big issue and even mark suckerberg is left simply apologizing for what happened. A lot of celebrities, including elon musk is said to have disabled their facebook accounts already

i also don't like this social network anymore, it's old-fashioned

I can't quit facebook I'm addicted to it

Is that an advise, a statement or a command? Because I don't seem to understand the rhythm of the message you're passing

I don't know is it good idea to stop reciving information from facebook. If you feeling bad and don't like you can quit it but mostly it's a gift to have an access to everything.

Yes, it is a waste fo time and you gain nothing out of it.

Yes I wanna try it though , we just focus on the social media activities which is far from reality , we are just like a robot an those gadgets or social media controlling us. Now look our selves , we been slaved by this , the culture that we lived before has change , sad but true.

I seldomly visit Fb, because of alot of showbiz personalities really, feels good staying off there,

I really love Facebook it's the easiest way to connect to Our love ones and Friend which are very far away from us around the world. I don't think so that quitting in Facebook is a good idea.

Is the news about deleting the Facebook is just fake? Because I also love sharing photos with friends and families and how grateful I am even if there's a lot of problems in life, there is a reasons for me to show to be happy. Yeah, Facebook is really addicted and some people can't get enough of it but we should also look at the positive things that Facebook can do.

I know exactly what you are saying.
at them moment my facebook wall reembles more a PR channel.
all my acquiantences are projecting on just how popular and succesful their are and im onstantly being targeted with products fb things I need to acquire.
sad and depressing. caught myself thinking - do I need this?I subconciously started comparing myself to all those happy people and my every day live events are so far from what  I see on my wall this is slowly having a derogatory effect on my wellbeing.

on the otherhand I travel quite a lot and this helps me to stay in touch with many friends living accross the world.

It is what it is and can be a useful tool provided you are resistant to this happy life projecting bulls*t.

No need to quit facebook as otherwise you will not be able to chit chat.

At least try quitting it once. It might give you a breather.

You must. It is just an add on thing and an addiction to life.

Agree :) I choose to unfollow negative people or pages. I can't blame you to be emotional about post in your newsfeeds but I enjoy mine because I tried filtering it. Try hitting like button when genuinely like the post and you'll see more post similar to it.

Depending on your friends, you'll get to see recent activities and happenings from the people you cared about or maybe I'm emotionally shallow who finds happiness by seeing my friends and loved ones having a good time.  ;D

For me, i would not quit Facebook because this is the only medium where most ofmay family members use and an avenue where we connect with each other. Regarding the personalities you don’t want to see, may you can unfollow them.

I dont wanna quit it because it helps me to pass tine when I feel bored

the reality that I experience is the usage that is tailored to our needs on Facebook. I still need facebook because I opened a business and marketing through Facebook.

the problems that are now natural users on Facebook are their personal data stolen by others and misused, but that can not be a benchmark to stop using Facebook, as there are still many advantages in using facebook.

so be wise in using social media.

Maybe I'll learn to stop using Facebook,
Because the government in my country recently issued a statement to ban Facebook,
To be honest I like Facebook because many micro businesses where I helped marketing via Facebook,
And that helps the economy a bit in my place

Why do you have to leave facebook? facebook take away your time too much? Or you do not use facebook effectively. For me, facebook has helped me a lot in my work, and it adds to my knowledge, especially thanks to facebook I had a great opportunity in 2017. I think you do not know how to use facebook, it will help you a lot if you know how to use it.
Facebook is a tool, you should learn how to use that tool

actually facebook has good and bad things if we follow good thing for our life it is will be valuable our future if we follow bad things it will be headache us so always select the just good things :) :)

It depends on what you choose to do with your facebook account. For those who are engaged in facebook bounty promoting, it is not an option. Again,  your feed depends on the friends you have and what they post that is sent to you. You can adjust your feed you want to see.

We have a lot different reason why still quit on facebook it just because maybe some user has victim from other scam activity or
 maybe is also victim from other site of cyberbully activity,this condition has also negative to those user if you one to them as victim person ,but on other hand  facebook  user well  also have positive purposed while using it on facebook depend upon to become productivity on person used,

true,i am using facebook and twitter for bounty promoting.but i not only use facebook because of bounty i also use facebook to communicate to my family and friends that live far from my home.its one way to easy communicate with them.

That is true , and to be honest when i quit facebook , i've seen some improvements too such as giving more attention on myself , and to my family instead of just surfing around the facebook. And said by the creator if facebook which is mark zuckerberg , said that he created facebook to communicate others to build a better social relationship and equality , but now we are focusing instead of our own life you know what I mean? , so I think just try it maybe a month or more.

Going on two months now since i perma deleted my facebook. It's book so liberating, i've goten rid of almost all social media and i can tell you i'm significantly happier than i was before. That shit is pure poison

Quitting use of Facebook help me focus on what I'm doing at work. I finish my work easier when I uninstall my Facebook.
Not using my Facebook save me a lot of time to do my everyday task and it is not affected my social life.

Even with Zuckerberg testifying in congress because of the the way Facebook has been using people's data, with disregard of their privacy, it did not affect usage one bit. So unfortunately most people simply do not care.

Facebook addiction is very dangerous because many people who want to make a hundred to offend one person but who feel offended more than one person and can cause the breaking of a friendship rope

Sometimes I asked myself to quit facebook. I'm tired of reading fake news most of the time maybe a month or two I should stop using facebook.

I also dont like facebook. beacuse Facebook is a time waster.

Well facebook uses for communication , if you quit facebook how you suppose to communicate to others mostly to your families around the world. It is depend on the person on how the person will use it , either for just stupidity or what , but me communication is important though. But on the other hand facebook are now used by many users who been addicted , who always just focusing on the facebook , and me i don't. I just use it when needed or necessary.

What you said is indeed true but for me the main purpose if that website is to communicate with the people and I don't give a shit about those things unless they removed the main point of it -to connect with the people you're close.  It's your own responsibility on how to used it.

I really don't like the last news about facebook, and I think it is a really right decision to delete facebook accounts.

Life is harsh, everyone knows that, but if you will be adding Facebook into your life? Find the superlative of "harsh" or maybe "worst" and that is the feeling. Wanna know why?

You see, when you are in Facebook you are adding a lot of people maybe because they are handsome, beautiful, rich, friend, your crush, school mate and any reasons why and you are seeing their updated lives. Why is that harsh? Because when you are in a state that you're life is crumbling and you are seeing the pictures of your friends having a good time having a good life it makes you think how low are you from them, you are getting depressed.

So that is a good thing to quit Facebook? No, because of that you are seeing the reality that you are now (might) at the bottom of the pit and you need to lift yourself, that is the realization you need to lift yourself up. You don't need to look at it as your enemy, you need to look at it as an obstacle you need to go through. You know, the best thing about being at the bottom is that people seen you at their lowest and seen you being at the top.

i would love to quit facebook dont use it a lot after all use mostly twitter, instagramm and quora

there's a way to get your news feed out and not just showbiz personalities, the faces of these stupid politicians, the drama etc. But with these little things just for me I will not stop Facebook reading. Because of Facebook all the occasions it is important to know

Sounds good. Thanks for the idea maybe i will also try. I will not deactivate my account but i will leave it there maybe with out checking notifications. Or instead spend my time to something more useful. Lately it been taking much of my time scrolling and watching stupid video clips.

I will never be in support of quit Facebook because is such a social media that connected everyone together. Although it had is negative impact which is more or less a crime.. But yet Facebook is so much fun and making of new friend across the world

I won't quit facebook, in light of the fact that it was exceptionally valuable to me, it causes me speak with my companions and relatives even in far spots, second it helps me about birthday to remember my companions so I can welcome them, third, it was anything but difficult to access and it is free. And furthermore, there were numerous recreations there where it was exceptionally charming and can assuage pressure.
