Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸For my birthday today… I deleted the Facebook account I created in September to access Marketplace. It served its purpose. I was going to sell other things but never got around to it. Then friends started requesting to be friends. It was awkward. I didn’t accept any requests and even made one post on my profile that I wouldn’t be friending anyone.. that it was only for Marketplace. People still requested…
Then a colleague/friend passed away and I missed an RSVP because someone sent me the message on FB rather than real life even though we weren’t FB connected and hadn’t communicated on there for years. This is what happens when people treat FB like the entirety of “the internet” and “communication”. I have a website with my name and phone! My address is not hard to search. Email!?
I was angry and sad about that. 😢
So ya… if I do the Marketplace thing again I’ll just make a temp account and delete it after use, like a single use plastic bag to pick up dog poop. 💩 🤣
In the meantime I’ll keep focusing on good people here on the #opensocialweb… and also connecting with people in real life.
Most of the 48 years I have spent on this earth have been without Facebook. I’ll manage :)

Jason MorseBefore posting the announcement I considered instead posting an explanation, which may have softened news of the exit. If I simply deleted the account perhaps it would go unnoticed for most people.
As of yesterday the account is deleted. Definite losses of opportunity will result. Some related to another art project I will discuss in another post. Sure it could have been handled better but the important thing is that it’s done. 6/6
I’d been hating on what is now Meta for a long time. Quitting Facebook in 2019 was easy and I have no regrets. I preferred the way Twitter functioned, but it was even easier to quit once it was taken over.
“How are you going to get business?” “Is everything OK?” “What happened” are some of the reactions to my Instagram announcement. 5/
