I'm pondering another social media conundrum. I really despise Facebook, and am on yet another hiatus from it at present, but all sorts of friends post to it. Hence, all sorts of friends see what I post, and so I manage to easily stay in touch and have the occasional banter with them. I really prefer to blog, but I don't know how many FB friends read the blog, and thus far it has not generated much banter. I'd love to just leave FB altogether, but I don't want to do that if it means losing contact with my friends there. Anybody have any clever ideas on what to do?

I wish I did. I'm having the same "word of the day." I tried to get my friends who always read my blog to sign up for email notification so I could leave facebook. The majority never got around to it. I really do like that they read my blog, but i wish they wouldn't require me to stay on facebook for them.
ReplyDeleteIgnore most of the crap on FB, though I have to admit the first thing on m feed this morning was from a moron that made me want to tell someone "You Really Can't be that stupid!"
ReplyDeleteall my friends are on blogs; mark zuckerberg should catch COVID-19 and DIE!
ReplyDeleteMy eldest pointed out that she checks it once a week, this seems to be quite sensible. She says she does it just to check in with friends.
ReplyDeleteI'm still holding it responsible for the decline of our early blogging days 😭
Once a week, what a great idea. Thank M. for me!
