Google searches for how to cancel and delete Facebook, Instagram, and Threads accounts have seen explosive rises in the U.S. since Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company will end its third-party fact-checking system, loosen content moderation policies, and roll back previous limits to the amount of political content in user feeds.

I knew I wouldn't be the only one. Now I just have to hold off checking it for 30 days.
That is straight up drug addict speak. I hope that you find someone that helps in that direction. Because seriously that is drug addict mentality, and I say that as an addict.
Just keep walking away from it. The sky is still blue, the stars will still dance. And people will still wish you a happy birthday. I promise.
That last one isn't true, but I agree with the rest
Happy Birthday! (Technically they didn't say we'd do it on your actual birthday.)
Technically correct is the best kind of correct.
Thanks for your concern, let me rassure you I can quit whenever I want to. No wait that all sound wrong. I was not a big user anyway went 2 or 3 times a week for maybe 30 minutes. It's been off my phone for a very longtime. The two main attraction were the short clips, but watch one with a pretty woman and that is all your get, very quickly and then turn creepy real fast. Disgusting me. Second attraction was my activist budy being smartass and commenting replying to morons in vain. Not only will he not fix anything, he doesn't seem to realize he's actually feeding the beast with smug. And that lost its appeal too.
It's a dopamine thing (as with many drugs)
I'll drink to that.
Change your DNS on your router to one you can block FB with. Free ones like Opendns or adguard should do the trick. For mobile it's a bit more tricky since you can't just change your mobile DNS without a VPN but you could get one for that too.
You can with Android.
Settings > Connections > More Connection Settings > Private DNS > Private DNS Hostname.
You will need the hostname though instead of just the IP address.You can change your DNS on iPhone at least. Settings > Wi-Fi > ℹ️ > Configure DNS > Manual

That was when the spell broke for me, too. Both times, actually. I got off of it in 2018 or so, and it took about 30 days. Then I had a relapse, and just cut it off on election day. I stopped trying to return to it in early December.
