But the RW ruined it by making it a vehicle to share disinformation.

I keep thinking about dropping it, honestly, there's like one or two groups that are fun and about games that keep me there. They actually stick to their gaming topic and banter, no other posts. I try to use that bookmark on my computer to go directly there.

I didn't want to know how many people I thought were "friends" were really ChumpHumpers. I'll probably never go back there.

extended family and old friends. Plus I can annoy the local RWNJs by reposting liberal truths.

Just about all my friends, family, good, and new acquaintances are on there.
We're talking, laughing, being serious, share fun, or beautiful photos...

I've got Art, Craft, SF, Science groups I seriously follow, and chat with.

Having this particularly during covid has been
a mental, and emotional life line!



So, yeah, I'm staying.

I don't read the news on there and I don't even see it.
I belong to about five groups that show cartoons and jokes.
And I look at Facebook pages of friends and family to see what they are doing and how they are doing.

People who hate Facebook need not go on it.
