Who's Ditched Facebook? Who Still Uses It?

Ask a Question

Better life with or without? FOMO or JOMO? (Fear of missing out/joy of missing out)

Miss discovery things, seeing updates, new deals?

Hey InaShah I hope you're very well! I stopped using Facebook for personal use a long time ago. Now I use it to look for and share deals. Interested to hear how others are using it these days too.

I activate and deactivate a lot. At times I want to permanently do it to stop the swinging but I just need to save certain pictures.

InaShah I was like that for a while before getting rid. I had photos on there not on my hard drive until someone showed me how to download them back to my PC.

I've used Facebook less and less over the last couple of years. I've never been that person who shares their life on the site and I admit to looking through my fingers at some of the personal stuff that is shared without any filtering or security. I spend more time on this site and enjoy the evident friendliness. I keep it for the deals and freebies and would definitely suffer FOMO.

I have it but never post anything on it and rarely use it much these days, but still can’t bring myself to deactivate! life is probably better off without it I do cringe at some of the stuff people post on there. I just use it for deals pages and pages about podcasts I listen too 😀

I still use Facebook. Although I think I am probably more active on Instagram or WhatsApp.

Facebook seems to have lost its novelty. Once upon a time, Facebook was hugely popular and just about everyone loved it. But everything gets boring after a while.

I still use it, I use it to enter competitions, find deals, get updates from the play groups my son goes to and keep in touch with family and friends.

I was never one for posting lots of personal things on my fb and that hasn't changed as I've gotten older.

I use Facebook for some groups, freebies, competitions, money saving etc but I make a point of not trawling through it. I don't want to know what everyone had for dinner, lol. I also hate the sniping that goes on there.

I got rid of it in the summer after 11-12 years of using it. I haven't missed it one bit. I find plenty of deals online hear and elsewhere and prefer twitter for everything else
