Is Facebook really necessary?
« on: July 09, 2018, 07:09:51 pm »
I understand that Facebook can bring people together, lost friends, close relatives but some people use it to bully and harass. Spread vicious rumors and just Troll. Facebook has ruined marriages big time. It's a good thing that if you choose to, you can hide your friend list from others. When Facebook came about, it was supposed to be for college students but somehow it turned into a worldwide epidemic. Do you think you HAVE to have a facebook account? What do people think of people that don't have an Facebook account?

No. I don’t need a Facebook account, but I enjoy keeping in touch with others on the site and app.

You do not need facebook, but that is pretty much how I keep up with family and friends.

I don’t need it and if it would disappear I would be fine, but I do use it to keep in touch with family and friends out of state and one out of the country.

I used to have an account, but I deactivated it. I'm SO much happier now. I just couldn't take all the politics and hypocrisy and hate anymore. There are some things I miss about it, like local events, but I don't miss all the people. I can keep in touch with family by phone.

No. I have one that I use to check in on distant family and friends.

About every two-three months.  ;D

I used to go onto Facebook, but now it's just for these surveys, other than that I don't get on it, people wanting me to friend them, but I don't, it's been like over 8 or 9 years, I don't miss it, too much drama.

I have an account, but haven't logged on in MONTHS. I do use it to keep in touch with a couple of international friends, but that's about it.

Thanks for making me not feel alone. People make it seem like your an ALIEN from some unknown planet when they can't find you on facebook.
