I’m a Facebook user. But I have lopped off several of the more objectionable bits: I only “FB-friend” actual IRL friends (with two exceptions). I do not play any of the games, which reduces the amount of personal information that gets (per EULA) siphoned into the world at large. I totally ignore the ads. And I read the posts on my friends’ timelines rather than reading whatever it is that FB wants me to read. Oh, and I use it about 75% to 25% as a place to put my OWN ideas (mostly borrowed).
