       Seems like an interesting effort. Rather US-centric, but still a good place to start.https://www.howtostopfacebook.org

       @mike Realistically though the majority of Facebook users don't give a shit though because Facebook has supplanted everything else as a way to communicate.

       @rmgr I don't think you're wrong, but I do think that the majority of users would be happy to have a more privacy respecting version of Facebook rather than having one constantly trying to milk them for every cent they have.

       @mike I finally pulled the trigger on deleting my Hatebook account the other day. I don't know why I delayed for so long, considering I stopped using it years ago.I stopped after my second brother-in-law verbally assaulted me on there.

       @TheDefiant604 Understand. I still technically have one, and it saw a good deal of use earlier this year when my mom passed to communicate with family and friends to coordinate stuff, but that's been the last time I've used it. I don't mind it sitting idle. It says right there in my profile, if you REALLY want to reach me try email or Mastodon.

       @mike I thought about keeping it, because a mobile game I sometimes play backs up its data there, in case I change phones, but I don't play that game enough to warrant keeping my account.If my sisters need to get a hold of me, my phone number will most likely never change. But, I doubt they'll ever need me... Either that, or their husbands won't let them contact me.

       @mike I'd love to see this work — after helping to bring us Brexit, Trump and the anti-vax movement, Facebook must be destroyed with fire and its staff assigned jobs where they can never do anything so evil again — but I can't see Congress doing what needs to be done.  Facebook is too big and too rich and too powerful, and most people believe that Facebook is benign just because it keeps saying it is.
