I truly dont get this 'can't get on with it' view lol - kids of 5 have mastered it

The only way you can see posts about someone else's sad life stories, is if you friend them and follow them. They would need to be your personal acquaintances unless you are the sort that allows friend requests from anyone and everyone.

If you do find a friend boring that way, either unfriend them or just stop following their posts, again its easy. Its the same as on here. If someone gets on your mammaries - block em

I have never once seen a single post about someone else's daily doings or yawnerama history....Its a myth those things are all over the platform. They are not.

I only accept or send friend requests to/from people I know and know well. I tend not to associate with many doofuses, so they tend to be OK. If one does go rogue, I turn off their notifications. If I piss them off - they turn me off - but the world still revolves

FB and Twitter etc literally shows you only what you allow it to show you ...

If I buy a newspaper or magazine, I dont read every advert and feature, I read the stuff that interests me only. I dont chuck the whole paper in a bin cos of a boring story. Instead, I just dont read it

The guys that cant get on with FB or Twitter are the ones that dont really know how to use it properly. Of itself, it can be as useful a resource as any forum or reference area if used sensibly. If all your friends are saddo's - you need new friends lol

My old dear isn’t even that old, watching her try to operate a smart phone is like watching someone with feet for hands disarm a nuclear warhead

Yeah but so long as she is still good at ironing & Yorkshire pud, send her flowers anyway.

It's all going in my junk folder now but there is over 500 mails and I'm not friends with anyone. Russian and Chinese woman seem to find me very interesting, though!

I'm gonna can it. It is crap that I do not need.

Handy for people you’d normally wouldn’t keep in touch with, otherwise yes.
