I deactivated my account, but kept FB Messenger, just so people could still contact me. I know, I know, it’s still FB, and I’m sure everything I deleted from my account before I deactivated it (pics, favorites, quotes, etc) have all been backed up onto their servers anyway. One positive note: I deleted all that personal info from my account a month before I deactivated the account, and the targeted ads had no idea what to do with me. If you must keep FB, make it as barebones as possible. Like, skeletal. All that stuff we happily filled out about ourselves? Your friends don’t care. And Fb is selling it to target ads to you, if not for much worse.
