Everyone at my job is still using Facebook and we range from age 19 to I think we got some folks in their 50s.
I think the main reason people stick with Facebook is because their Messenger is the best way to communicate with co-workers and acquaintances that you need to talk to but don't want to give your phone number to. As for the gimmick Facebook accounts, I do see the reason. Lots of employers do check social media to make sure you're involved into things that go against their values or if they're talking **** about the company. The 'gimmick name' allows them to be more 'themselves' without the employers or potential employers finding out.

Nope. Not really. Got off a few months ago. My blood pressure went waaaaay down.

I find there is a bunch of people that post the same rhetoric everyday. Sometimes I'll bite, mostly I won't. Mostly I just respond to basic "day in the life" type posts and ignore the rest. With a lot of input chimes to entertainment type stuff. I'll never make a political post myself. I don't open that door.

But my friends were. Incessantly. And that would just push a button, and I'd lose my marbles. Not to mention, it was all just blurbs designed to enrage. Or those insufferable memes that have some smarmy one-liner. I wasn't even getting good information out of it. Which is why I encourage reading the whole article instead of just the headline. Also, it became a huge time sink. I'd sit there and fall into scrolling through posts, most of which from people I hadn't spoken to in years. It was a colossal waste of time.

I temporarily deactivated my Facebook, planning to come back eventually. I think it will be good for me.
