I’m about to get real mean to people still on FB/insta. Wtf will it take for you people to say no to a shitty social media website?

A lack of pictures of my extended family.

Videos of my nieces figure skating are the primary reason I haven't deleted my account

Try to get them to text them instead. Giant family text chains are a lot more fun (and chaotic) than generic social media.

Pretty sure you can download that stuff if you want to save it. I could be wrong, though. I deleted FB, Insta, and all that jazz at the start of the dictator’s first term.

Hotmail, Gmail, and Yahoo Mail are all run by dirt bags.
