Perhaps it's the company you keep
My FB is full of mates having a laugh and generally taking the p1ss out of each other.
However, I do tailor my feed so I only see stuff I want to. The 'hide all' and 'unfollow' options make it fairly easy.
Absolutely, me too. The only time I ever see any weird dermot is when one of my mates who I follow debunks some nutcase theory. Facebook is not a faultless company and Zuckerberg doesn't appear to be a particularly nice human being, but I figure as long as I use the service they provide but never buy anything I see advertised that I wasn't going to get anyway, I'm the one getting the better of the relationship.
I reckon most people who have a poor experience with Facebook haven't spent any time learning how to leverage the privacy options in their favour.
I've just had a quick look at my timeline. 4 jokes/notifications from mates, one link to an article on the failure of trickle-down capitalism, some pictures from our local history group, an advert for kitchen basics food delivery, an advert for a food mixer (too late Zuck, I bought the Kitchen Aid one I was googling yesterday), and some useful info from our local coronavirus community response group. Hardly a pit of awfulness.
