The only way I will use the site from here on out if I have to!<br>Some helpful suggestions for those considering <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=boycotting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boycotting</span></a> /leaving Facebook. (I pilfered this from someone’s feed. I am not crediting them because they did not have a share option. But I think the info is important. )<br>A better way to protest Meta from Rebecca Hains: "I’ve been seeing lots of posts from people suggesting a boycott of <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meta</span></a> / FB, due to its owners’ political pandering and irresponsible corporate practices. But, many people also value the platform for the connections it provides to family, friends, and acquaintances — and many people don’t want to cede this space to the far right, either.<br>So, what can you do as an alternative to leaving Meta’s platforms? Well, there are a few actions you can take that may lessen the profit they make from your engagement, and improve your user experience:<br>1. Opt out of Meta’s “off-Facebook activity tracking.” This is a setting deep in your account that allows them to track what you do *off* of FB so they can make more money by convincing advertisers that they’re targeted marketing to you. (I looked at mine last week and saw that they had extensive records of my Internet browsing history—really gross.)<br>To change this, go to >>Settings >>Account Center >>Your Information and Permissions >>Your Activity Off Meta Technologies / Off FB Activity / clear previous activity. Then also go to manage future activity - disconnect future activity.<br>2. “X” out any ads, sponsored content, or random product-oriented reels that FB shows you. Mark it as irrelevant; ask to never see that advertiser again. The less our on-Facebook ad exposure is tracked, the less justification advertisers have to give FB money to reach people.<br>3. Do not click through any ads or sponsored content to take quizzes, buy products, etc. This activity allows FB to claim that advertising on the platform is effective and generates more income for them.<br>4. View your feed through the “friends” filter as often as possible. To do so, go to menu / feeds / friends. There, you will only see posts from your connections — not all the ads and suggested groups and so on that Meta has been cluttering our FB feeds with in a desperate attempt to keep us engaged on the platform. If you do this enough, it should appear as a tab at the bottom of the app.<br>5. Do <a href="https://friendica.myportal.social/search?tag=2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>2</span></a> and 3 on Instagram, too."
