#4I uninstalled every Facebook product from my phone. Turns out I really didn't need Messenger after all.
As I still concede to using Facebook, I have decided to install a Chrome shortcut to mbasic.facebook.com. It does everything I need without tons of scripting, doesn't optimistically download content, and loads fast when my bandwidth is reduced. It never notifies me, and that's a good thing. Without infinite scrolling, I'm less likely to waste time.
Maybe I'll decide to ditch Facebook entirely, but for now, using mbasic has been a healthier alternative.
My 4g LTE bandwidth seems to last longer, too.
With HTTPS and a mobile connection, I can't see why I would need a VPN for Facebook.

+1 for mbasic.facebook.com
I never use the rest of the site, but there are some contacts that I can only reliably reach through messenger

+1. If you still want to receive some basic notifications on incoming messages, FaceSlim app is very nice :)

#7Look, it is 2018, “Facebook” and “collecting data” shouldn’t be any surprise to anyone. Stop using Facebook or submit to your data overlords but please, PLEASE stop posting this stuff. Facebook should never be trusted.

When something is a problem, you should shine more light on it, not avoid talking about it because it "isn't a surprise".
The general public has a short memory for this kind of thing, and no, not everyone is aware of the trade-off they're making with these services, or the true extent of the surveillance and manipulation they're submitting themselves to.
Much of society is just finally beginning to wake up to the dangers these companies present. Now is not the time to go silent about the issue. Quite the opposite.

People come to the mindset of distrust through the publicizing of these incidents/decisions. Don't assume that everyone is at where you are.
