Meaner still / myLot

April 1, 2020 1:11am CST

I think I stayed up past my bed time and now I cannot go to sleep. So I kicked people and groups off my Facebook newsfeed. I UNFOLLOWWED a lot of people and organizations. What is funny is that I do not remember following many of them in the first place. I was really just trying to get rid of a recent addition that kept posting "stories" and such. I may be able to go to sleep soon. I just figured I was up, it is April, and I am off to a good start. I promise that it is totally unlikely I will unfollow or block anyone here. I am not that cold hearted and mean.

Decluttering is a good thing. Your faceook feed will now be to your liking.

You're not mean or cold hearted at all.

I certainly am pleased not to have certain annoying things coming up in my feed or messenger. I hope you and yours are doing well. I do not mind that I see you on FB fairly often.

Funny, I just asked to be removed from a Facebook Messenger group this morning. Now is a good time to get things like this sorted.

I do the same thing on Facebook every now and then. Like you, some of them I don't remember following.

sometimes if you even open an article one time you are suddenly "following".

I have a few groups that I followed, that I have unfollowed but left there, so I can go to their page, but they arent allowed to spam my feed so much I miss people posts. We need a 'personal friend tab", and a "groups we follow tab"

Some of these "personal friends" of mine have no sense at all.

It is good to unfollow some groups and people. I unfollowed some groups because i don't like they have too much posts.

Yes and it gets to be distracting.

@GardenGerty true but all social media are for distracting people. Many posts are like that. There is a few useful posts and information.

Its good to know you will not be unfollowing any of us here. I too need to clean up Facebook because like you I too find myself in a lot of groups I dont remember joining and dont know why I am there.
