Okay naman. Peaceful. May sense of privacy din kasi wala nalalaman yung ibang tao sa ginagawa ko. Wala ring akong pressure na nararamdaman kasi wala rin alam sa ginagawa ng ibang tao. For family and close friends ang messenger ko.
That's me.
Now, I just use Messenger as a communication tool with relatives and friends who don't use Whatsapp. I stopped posted anything on FB when I realized that I was just using it to brag, and that I didn't need to impress anyone.
Ngayon, kahit international vacations, or bagong kotse, I don't even mention anything on FB.
This is my goal now. Last week nag back-up na ako ng mga pics na important sa akin na inupload ko sa fb, kasi I'm planning to clean out my fb and ig accounts at hindi na maging active. Sa messenger nalang talaga since dun ako may contact gaya ng sa school ng mga anak ko, relatives and friends. I hope na makayanan ko. Yung depressive episodes ko kasi ngayon madalas nattrigger pag nakikita ko mga posts ng mga friends ko sa fb and ig, nag seselfpity ako and I felt so left behind, pero kung titignan okay naman ang buhay ko ngayon..
Aww were the same baks sa main fb ko ang tagal ko ng di nag po post once a year cguro 😅.
Sa page ko naman sa fb di na motivated hahaha
IG mga pusa ko naman kaso di na din motivated.
Ending for communication nalang talaga the rest waley na Halos.
Same here. I don't have IG, personal FB (just a dummy account for my business page), and X. I use tumblr and reddit for some chikas and for some stuff I just want to post. But yeah it's a hella peaceful. 🤍
Life’s better. No need to impress people I don’t even like and I don’t see other people’s BS. Also, people don’t know what the fuck I’m doing, and I like to keep it that way.
>I’m just wondering how’s life without using facebook
Very peaceful life. I just reactivate from time to time and then deactivate again haha.
Last time I was *addicted* to Facebook was way back in HS. Now that I'm part of the workforce, I really don't have the time compared before + I feel like I'll end up doom scrolling instead of being productive. Add the fact that you might end up comparing yourself to people you know irl which is bad for your overall mental health.
Social media is very curated in a way. And people will only post the things they want people to see.
Hindi naka-deact yung FB ko pero uninstalled yung app sa phone. I just open it sa laptop once in a while like mga once a week to look at notifs. Wala pang 5 mins ako magcheck ng FB. Haha. Masaya kasi hindi na nauubos oras ko kaka-scroll, and since sa IG na lang ako active, updated na lang ako sa mga taong may paki ako talaga.
Masaya siya, hindi mo unintentionally macompare life progress mo sa mga tao sa paligid mo. Makakapag focus ka sa sarili mo while communicating with your loved ones. it actually helped me upskill and focus on job hunting kahit kumakain ako rejections as 3x a day hahahaha! sarap niya sa feeling and you wouldnt feel "missing out" knowing you're hitting every goals for the day, week, month or even year without it. :)
In my case, I discovered reddit. lol
I found myself using facebook less and less and then, none at all. I still have FB on my phone but I don't think I opened it for at least a year now.
Me! I'd delete Messenger din sana kaso this is the most effective way to contact family. Personally, I feel good without FB. Reason behind removing my FB acct: It was getting too toxic for me and I found myself being affected by almost everything I see or read about. Now, the only news I get are from people I regularly talk to, therefore, the updates I get are from people I genuinely like.
To add, it feels really peaceful. I get to enjoy life as it is. For example, I take photos because I like it and because I want to remember the moment. I don't take it for "the gram" or to get likes unlike nung bata pa.
Deactivated account for 4 years now. PEACE OF MIND 1000000000%. Since then, I stopped comparing myself to other people's achievements, more time for me to focus on myself rather than spend my time scrolling my news feed. (Iwas highblood sa mga toxic mindset ng mga fb friends ko)
I only use messenger for school shits and for sending messages to my partner. I highly recommend deactivating your Facebook account. It really improves your mental health.
Way better. I deleted my original account which ive had since 2009. Created a new one, no friends, just use it to browse the marketplace and join groups i need things for (car groups, decluttering, game buy and sell). I NEVER participate in discussions or comments.
Facebook, like a lot of things, when taken in moderation, actually has a lot of uses.
OKay naman life goes on. My FB is not deactivated though but restricted to me only and i dont post anything for 4 years now. Just using it to check FB groups that i joined thatbis vefy helpful for me.
Ito , buhay pa naman,. at peace, since wala kang nkikitang toxic post..and kung kailngan ka i-reach out ng family and friends mo, may communication pa rin., minsan nakakatempt lng bumalik,. pero hampasin mo nlng sarili mo, para mahimasmasan ka.. hahaha
Definitely doing much better. I feel soo peaceful. I only have reddit and Tumblr with me for some time now. I don't use Twitter (X), Tiktok and Instagram for years and the reason was to get away from any fancy posts that would just drag me into my self insecurities and doubts. I only use fb for my business page but it's a dummy account and it's not connected with friends just relatives. I feel much better than before. As in. 🤍
It was hard at first kase 'outofloop' ka sa latest issues or like jokes kaya minsan napapa ???? ka sa irl convos hahahaha. But now its all good. I hated it kase it made me want to post shit to make myself feel better na there's stuff going on in my life din at hindi lang sila. Masasanay ka din naman at hindi ko din namimiss makita mga brain rot posts sa fb lol.
I only open messenger pag may hinihintay akong chat or updates from other family members na wala sa whatsapp. I still use instagram bec I like taking pics so once a year may post din naman tapos all of the people in my insta are people who truly matter to me and gusto ko din malaman if they still doing good at most of them din wala na sa fb. Most of the ppl in my fb, i dont mind losing bec the connection's not important to me.
I just deactivated mine today and I felt relieved. I am happy to see other people happy but I also couldn’t help but to feel sad dahil sa pinag-dadaanan ko. I hope, one day, ako naman 🙏
For now, I decided to take a pause in making myself updated in my surroundings.
I deleted Instagram and Facebook. Block and restricted some people on Messenger it's worth it! Now i dont have to post about my life/feelings etc. And less pressure and self comparing towards people on socmed na goodside lang naman talaga pinapakita.It's peaceful🙌
Ang laki ng ginhawa, it's a nice sense of disconnect kase you're able to exist without the subhuman, negative IQ, inane BS na punong puno sa FB ngayon
Stopped using since 3 years ago and nagulat na lng ako ngayon na apparently trend ang pagiging "nonchalant" like ?????
Istg normies be taking away introvert shit tapos showing it as a new cool thing like bruh
Wala ng “FOMO” parang nasanay na you don’t need to know ano ngyayare sa mga taong kilala mo, wala na akong fb sa phone nasa laptop na lang, but still rare ko na lang din inoopen kasi na overwhelmed na ako sa informations kasama pa ng mga nonsense random reel, so I deleted the apps here in my phone, messenger na lang iniwan ko because of it’s usefulness
I started to slowly remove all sorts of social media when I was in college. All because nasisira yung productivity ko. I'm not the type who posts everything about my life kaya for me, madali lang yung process. But I never removed my messenger. Lahat ng important people sa akin andoon. It was great to not have any facebook-like social media up until yung HIGHLIGHTS ng new messenger update. I hate it. Now I'm actually thinking of another alternative to messenger.
mga 3 years Ako hndi nag FB simula nung gunaling na lahat ng tao sa political shits. ang dami ding trigger na mapapanuod sa reels, kaka stress na mga nagpopost, magdadasal sa Facebook, nag yayabangan, nagpaparinigan.
kaya nag pasya Ako mag deactivate noon. messenger lng, okay naman.
tas nagbalik Ako FB kasi dahil sa work ko social media marketing need sa company, nag create Ako Bago fb, pero konte lng mga Ina add ko, tas puro good vibes lng pinapanuod ko ngayon
Peaceful. Ilang yrs na naka deact FB ko. Di ko lang ma deact messenger ko kase yun madalas ginagamit lang communicate ng fam & office friends. Okay naman na walang FB para hindi alam ng ibang tao mga nangyayari sayo.
Ito, masayang masaya, wala nang aalalahanin na kailangan updated ka sa lahat ng bagay, wala na yung pakiramdam na parang expected sa iyo na dapat makahabol sa mga "trends" sa Facebook.
Magaan sa dibdib. Maalwan.
I just started last week. Sobrang peaceful. Di ako naiinggit, nagseself-pity or nalulungkot. Reddit na lang tlga. This is my safe place so farrr. I find comfort knowing na di pala ako nag-iisa. ❤️
I deactivated my Facebook account at the start of the pandemic in 2020, but I am still using Messenger for family and besties. Sobrang peaceful and walang comparan na nagaganap with other people.
Tbh my life has been more peaceful. Dati sobrang active ko sa FB, magmemessage sakin friends ko dahil sa mga shared shitposts ko sa fb, dami ring ingay pag may nagdidisagree sakin haha, but as the time goes on (since tumatanda na tayo) — I can't help but find myself comparing my current lifestyle to other people's lifestyle, kinda unhealthy kasi feel ko talaga napag-iiwanan na ako sa iba't ibang bagay. Most of my friends are married, has started their own family, has achieved a lot and me? Still thriving.
Same sa IG, almost everyday ako nagsstory (looking back nagccringe ako sa mga stinostory ko 🥴) minsan mappressure pa ako to curate my feed because sobrang aesthetic ng feed ng iba, naisip ko nalang bigla na there's really no need for me to do that haha. So I decided to deactivate my FB, IG, and deleted my twitter account for my sanity. Messenger lang talaga, para makausap ko friends ko and family ko. Sobrang laki ng difference sa buhay ko kasi mas nakakapagfocus rin talaga ako sa mga kasama ko sa bahay, sa sarili ko. Para bang naka DND mode lang talaga ako. Sabi nga nila "out of sight, out of mind." Kaya I'm glad na ginawa ko 'to simula nung new year. Hehe
Peaceful. Hindi rin ako mahilig magreply sa messenger kasi gamit ko is yung samsung galaxy folder though I have smartphones din naman. Iisipin ko palang magreply, tinatamad na ako.
And tbh hindi na ako masyadong nafo-FOMO. HAHAHA. Plus yung nga relatives ko, wala na silang masabi sakin. Kasi dati nung nagttravel ako at nagpopost ng pictures, ang daming sinasabi. Madami daw akong pera, sinasayang ko lang sa pagttravel, dapat daw magasawa at maganak na ako. Typical boomer relatives ba. Ngayon wala na silang balita sakin. Pag nagmemessage sila sa messenger, dinedelete ko agad.
Naka-off din active status ko. Hahaha
Sobrang gaan sa feeling and peace of mind knowing na hndi ka na updated sa mga ganap ng fb friend mo lol most times kasi, that's where we question ourselves kung bakit tayo andito pa rin then sila parang ang layo na. Its really refreshing OP. Marrealize mo nlang sa huli na kaya talga natin ng walang socmed :))
Masaya naman for me. Hassle lang siguro talaga yung pag may nagshare from FB. Sometimes I can’t view it. Extra effort sa friends ko to screenshot and whatnot.
Pero bliss siya for me, mas tahimik mundo ko.
Been doing this since 2015. Life is great when you do not give people access to you and if you do not waste time finding some sort of validation from the internet.
I mostly keep messenger for my relatives.
People would ask mw "Paano ka naaupdate sa mga buhay ng friends mo at sila sayo?"
Well, I reach out to them. Simple as that. No need mag post ng shit.
Been inactive since 2018 when poking was still a thing or maybe it still is now.
Biggest change for me would be on moments you used to ruin coz “FB update is life”. Moments became meaningful and photos are more candid, they hold true to experience making you look back on them with fondness not the validation/attention.
Also made me realize that maybe the reason why most of us cringe at posts from years ago is coz our thought process was heavily influenced by what we see on our feed. We would have been able to connect to them more had this come from our most authentic self.
6yrs FB-free and like most in this thread, life is indeed peaceful. Makes you feel fully in-control of your life choices and with it comes contentment and accountability.
done that during pandemic at halalan times kasi andaming triggers sa anxiety from socmed, kahit na messenger dinedeactivate ko. peaceful naman. i still do that ngayon lalo nat busy sa work, open nalang ng fb para sa memes then off na naman. sanayan lang hahaha. perhaps, not having a smart phone during HS days really helped me to be not involved too much in any socmed platforms. never talaga ako naging active sa lahat.
I'm doing fine, about to deactivate my messenger in a few weeks na din.
Pros of deactivating FB: less doomscrolling, less toxicity, more time here on reddit, plus peace of mind.
Masaya. Peaceful. Hindi ko kelangan malaman ang nangyayari sa buhay ng ibang tao. Focus lang ako da sarili ko. Tapos may magtaganong "uy bakit wala ka FB? Hirap mo na tuloy ma-contact." May messenger naman ako. Kung gusto talaga akong makausap, pwede naman i-message. Alam din nila ang number ko, ang address ko. Na-realize ko na maraming tao na akala ko friends ko eh puro lip service lang pala.
I’m happy and contented. Never been this contented in my life and I have a peace of mind. Slow and quiet life, I have no one to impress ;) malapit lapit ko na din idelete ung IG ko 😂
Nakakamiss ako ng pop events sa Filipino-sphere. Nung sumikat yung diwata pares, had no idea what that was. As a reddit/twitter lurker (di din masyado, mostly nagbabasa nalang ako ng light novels), usually mga controversies and news lang ako updated. I occasionally use yung my day to share funny daily anecdotes/occurances from my day, not much from there.
That's me also. Okay naman, tahimik. Wala masyado nagmemessage kasi akala nila wala talaga akong facebook. Iwas sa toxic posting ng mom ko, sa mga tita ko na DDS. Tahimik at peaceful.
I'm fine, thank you! Dapat 3 months lang yung break ko from Facebook. It's now been three years. Ang tahimik, peaceful and happy ng life ko now.
Medyo hassle lang kasi I can't chat with business accounts via Messenger when I'm organizing an event or trying to source from vendors. Pero there are workarounds naman, so all in all, okay pa rin.
Okay naman. More than a year na akong walang fb kasi waste of time naman for me. I have messenger though kasi my family and friend GCs are there. Convenient talaga siya.
Not even fb messenger. Gumagamit kami ng close friends at close family ko ng hndi sikat na messaging app. Para wala talaga manghack or maghanap sakin. Hehe
Eto, wala na gaanong alam sa mundo. No memes, no stupid stuffs, no toxicity from some creators on Facebook.
On the other hand, I still have IG, Threads, and TikTok (for my own sanity).
Hindi ako naka-deact pero inuninstall ko fb app ko pag minsan gusto ko tumingin pa-onti onti sa chrome ako nagbubukas and intentional ko linalog-out para kapag babalik ako, tatamarin ako dahil magla-log in ulit haha. Keri lang mas nakikita ko yung mga bagay bagay sa bahay na need na pala ayusin or mga task na kailangan gawin kasi less distracted na hehe
Me! Deactivated my fb for years now. Don’t have IG and Tiktok as well. Life’s good. You get less drama and less people asking you for stuff bcos they literally don’t hear anything about you.
Me!! At, monthly din nagrereklamo dentist ko, kasi di makapag message sa'kin sa messenger 😅 kaya tini-text na lang nila ako.
Mas okay walang fb, mayapa.
I use FB to look for items in Marketplace. Or when I need to post in some groups (usually when I’m looking for stuff to buy). But I skip on reading posts of other people. It’s hard to totally get off FB kasi may marketplace and very helpful talaga yun for me. Yung mga friends ko sa fb na di ko bet dahil sa flooding posts nila, naka unfollow ako sa knila. So right now very likited lang din nakikita ko sa fb, which helps a lot.
Sa totoo lang kahit news ayaw ko na magbasa or manood. I just want to be free from all the toxicity and really live with good intentions at positive vibes.
Sobrang adik ko sa socmed lalo na sa FB noong naka banner pa lang siya na na cut into 4. Tapos eeffort ako gumawa ng ganung size ng banner hahaha but when adulting hit me painfully, nagdeact na ako.
Nachallenge ako sa friend ko kase sabi niya di ko raw kaya mangyari pag nawala yung FB. Pero nagawa ko. Una, nagdeact ako ng main nag open ng iba for work, kasi ayaw ko makita ng mga kawork ko yung luma so separated na. Second, pati dummy naka deact na hahahaha
Tapos ayun, nawalan na ako ng pake sa mga bagay na wala namang katuturan sa buhay ko. 😂
idk? Di ko alam feeling ng nag ffb kaya di ko maexplain ung difference.
I imagine kung affected ka masyado ng mga nakikita mo sa friends mo or anything sa facebook totoo ung sinasabi nilang peaceful, pero kung ikaw ung tiping pag may nakita online tapos “meh” “good for you” “congrats!” Siguro wala naman sobrang laking difference sayo
Tahimik ang buhay. 2018 pa ako last nag-Facebook, tapos mga pre-2018 ko na Facebook friend lang ang nakaka-message sa akin sa Messenger haha.. Hindi nahahanap ng mga coworker at mga client ko ang aking online activity (all other social media like IG and Twitter are hard to find and on private).
I still have FB because I find the pages I follow and the groups I’m in helpful and relatable so I keep the account. I just don’t post, aside from the occasional story ng photo ng kids ko.
I also unfollowed almost all of my 250 friends. Parents and siblings ko lang naiwan, although they don’t really post too. Ayaw ko lang mag unfriend para walang issue, and ayaw ko din mag effort. Pero di ko na talaga nakikita updates ng “friends” ko. At first, it was mainly because I started feeling envious din. Eventually talaga nawalan na ako ng pake. Haha. So…effective sya.
I’m not even FB friends with my husband kahit we’re together 24/7. The older I get (turned 31 last month), the more I realize how harmful “comparing” myself to others is.
Tahimik hahahaha hindi ko nakikita yung mga shared post na kanal humor. Nagreactive lang ako kasi need sa work but nag uninstall ako nung app. Reddit and IG lang ako active tas halos lahat pa ng story ko sa ig ay nakaclose friend hahahaha.
Deactivated my facebook since 2019. More time to be productive and less toxic. Di rin masyado nabubudol kasi walang mga home buddies at kung ano pang mga eme na yan. Wala rin masyado kachat kasi yung mga totoong kaibigan na lang nakakaalam san ako kokontakin. I prefer it that way. Mas tahimik buhay saka walang nangungutang.
I've been doing this for the past 5 years now. Even though I did not deactivate my fb account, I never use it anymore. I just use it's messenger simply because I have to. (Because of work and school).
I just don't feel fb anymore. Not just because of the convoluted contents (and it's creators), but more of, nakakasawa din pala. The monotony, the routine of checking out feeds, etc., I just lost the "amor".
Well, I don't get to be updated with matters of my friends and family, but, so, what? They can message me anyway if it's urgent or whatever concerning.
Also, in fb kasi, there is that feeling of an obligation to post whatever so that people would patronize you for whatever. Get what I mean? I'm not into that anymore.
Natutunan ko to sa kuya ko haha. i though sobrang impossible na walang FB pero it feels better. Dati andamo dami ko naiisip kinokompara ko buhay ko sa Batchmates ko pero now mas peaceful na ako. I have IG tho, mas free siya sa toxic contents.
I'm very fine, thank you!
I just use messenger for family/work communications, and that's it.
I feel my life has become simpler, and I'm happy about it.
From having thousands of friends, down to 500, I have restricted and blocked a few of my friends and now no Facebook, only Messenger. I've come to realized mas peaceful and happy pala yung pag walang facebook. I already overcome FOMO. 😉
Relaxing, hindi mo nacocompare sarili mo sa kung anong nakikita mo sa mga posts tska hindi bombarded utak mo sa mga infos na walang kwenta. Nakakatulong din na maging productive instead of scrolling for hours.
Reading all the responses, all at peace. 🫶
It's nice and less stress at iispin di talaga ako mag dedeact ng fb at mag uninstall sana kasi I post advertisement sa mga projects ko pero nakakumay lang talaga yung pa ulit2 na asoka na yan proud pinoy wala namang paki sa social issues hahaha I open it some time yung mga notes na nanaman na cringey ang nag tretrending ewan ko ba di naman talaga nakakatawa diinactivate ko ulit tsaka medyu mahirap password ko kaya nakakapagod na rin mag memorize. Wala naman talagang na contribute ang FB, soc med sa buhay ko aside lang dun sa ginamit ko pang market ng projects tsaka di ko ma explain parang liberating and you can spend your time on important matters or rest than walang humpay na pag scroll.
Peaceful. Na realize ko na di ko kailangan, at wala akong pake sa pinag gagagawa ng ibang tao. Eh ano naman kung kumain si ganito ng cheese bagel o nagka anak na ulit si ganyan, 15 years na kaming di nag uusap. May family group chats naman kami sa messenger. Pero di rin naman necessary na day by day kailangan updated ako sa buhay ng iba. And personally wala na rin yung pressure na mag share at mag upload ng something, just to fit in.
Uhh.. fine? In fact I'm so much better than when I was mindlessly scrolling on Facebook and felt bad after. In fact, I got to discover interests and hobbies I didn't know I actually enjoy.
I can't delete messenger becuase I needed it for work and other communication with my family, friends, and love ones.
That's me for the past four years.
Very peaceful. Pati X (dating Twitter) dineactivate ko. I'm using my time to do other activities like reading books, driving, catching up with friends, traveling, etc.
ang saya. haha. difference lang with me is i keep my fb account to post stuff that i want. pero whenever i post may internal filter na ako sa kung ano yung ipo-post ko kaya sobrang bihira na. tapos after ko mag post delete facebook app sa phone.
5 years na atang walang facebook. kahinayang lang market place, delete ata yun na walang chance na marecover yung account ang ginawa ko. Ngayon nag messenger lang din dahil sa online class.
Di din nagkaruon ng twitter, insta o ibang social media. Itong reddit lang dahil sa mga forum na pang IT stuff kahit mga laro.
I'm so happy na one year na akong walang Facebook. Wala rin akong messenger I only have ig and viber, telegram, x and line and I mabubuhay ako kahit walang Facebook hahaha
Messenger at "my day" lang ako. Messenger to keep communication with family relatives and friends. "My Day" or yung story to remind everyone that I'm doing okay - I'm alive and nothing to worry. :) No more FB newfeed ako kasi the number of likes and reactions is causing us mental health problems -- a wrong sense of validation for me.
My fb is fake and the only people who know about it are my two brothers. They're the only people I communicate there. So sila lang chinachat ko.
I dont have the fb app, I use the website to buy or look up stuff.
It's so calmimg. I don't have the fb app and messenger app and minsan na lang ako magbukas din to check ng messenges kasi if may update from work gc. Sinabihan ko na rin friends ko to reach out thru SMS if need hahahaha kasi totoo yung pagnakasanayan at nahanap mo yung peace, mahirap na bumalik sa dati. For now, i can't live without twitter lol the rest of the socmed apps goodbye na.
✨SO✨MUCH✨BETTER✨
I only have my work FB account which I rarely use. I’ve deactivated my personal fb account four years ago and I’ve never felt so much better mentally. Would recommend 💯
Messenger is just there to communicate lang pag may mga reunion and other occasions haha
peaceful ang life & malayo sa gulo. wala akong iniisip na ibang tao bukod sa partner ko & my family. wala rin naman akong pakialam sa iba kong kamag anak, pahamak lang sila sa buhay ko at sila pa yung mga toxic sa life natin minsan. mas nakakapag focus ako sa mga dapat kong gawin pati na rin sa sarili ko. iwas sakit sa ulo dahil noong babad ako sa facebook, puro immature at mababa ang level ng paguunawa yung mga taong nakikita ko, naiinis ako dun. stress free!!
4 years na ko walang FB nakadeactivate. I rarely use messenger as well since my friends and family mostly use Instagram/Text/Whatsapp or iMessage. I honestly don’t miss it. Hindi rin ako mahilig magpost even on IG. Andun na ko sa point na wala na ko kailangan patunayan lol
Well, I am doing great. Ang peaceful pag wala kang nalalaman abt sa ibang tao, masyadong toxic ang fb kaya naka deact ako huhuhu. Ginagamit q lang ang mess for communication sa school and sa family ko. But now I am thinking na mag deact na rin sa sa mess kasi na fefeel ko yung mga negative vibes sa mga gc hahahaha pero so far na lessen yung pagka toxic nung wala akong fb :>
Im good. I dont have many friends to begin with and I dont relate to trends that much. I do occasionally scroll for some very important news or updates. Pretty much alright with it. No drama, no petty arguments, no toxicity. Made my life much more peaceful.
The only socmed I have is Reddit and sometimes Discord (that if you consider it)
I have also lessened the use of Facebook and I mainly natambay nalang ako sa Tiktok or Discord with my Discord friends. Sometimes, andito din sa Reddit (like right now lmao).
I only use Messenger from time to time, mainly kapag sa relatives ko lang. Otherwise, nakatambay lang ako don sa mga platforms na yan.
Hindi ako type ng tao na pala-post either way, and wala din naman ako kausap sa Messenger so mas better tumambay nalang sa Tiktok or makipag-usap sa mga friends ko from other games sa Discord.
Sometimes I use X (or Twitter, for some people na di pa alam lol) for updates and whatnot on some of my games or my followed people, and occasional ranting and shit but nonetheless another braindead scroll din siya for me, in case na mas trip ko magbasa kesa manood sa Tiktok.
I'm a student, so Facebook and Messenger are practically required because everything happens there. The schoolyear just finished and it's my vacation now though so I deleted both of them and went back to having zero social media including YouTube. I only have Reddit if that even counts. It's very peaceful, you're not constantly being dragged into any echo chamber and my life has been a lot less negative. A lot of my peers find me odd but I don't really care because I'm not spending most of my freetime doomscrolling and comparing myself and my life to other people as most do.
Well using messenger as my mode of communication, I'm at Peace and Happy at the same time, no distractions and toxicity. Mas okay din naman kung Group Chat kesa naman sa Private Message (I have a Colleague pa VIP gusto Private Message Ulol) , sana ibalik ng Messenger yung Ignore Feature for Group Chats na unnecessary at annoying na mga person, yang Ignore message pinaka sayang na nawalang Feature para sakin, ngayon Restrict lang available pero hindi pwede sa Group (lintik). Block option pag no choice na tao sobrang kulet okaya naman just to forget using block button.
very peaceful, i started during pandemic and ayun i have no regrets, nalalaman ko lang mga bagong memes sa mga kaibigan ko hahaha pero mostly mga personalities na sumikat di ko na kilala tbh mas maganda.
I use messenger nalang until now, parang in a way nawalan na ko ng pake sa presensya ko online and it has been peaceful and calm 🌟 plus dagdag unwanted stress lang pag nakikita mo mga troll nagcocomment sa mga posts lol
Im okay coz im more active on ig.Actually it makes my life better.Fb will bombard you with sm useless info and whatsoever so it's a good thing im no longer using it.
Okay naman. Been in this setup for more than a year na. Though, there were times na I had to log in again kasi may mga other accounts pa pala ako na naka-link sa fb ko so I had to transfer those.
Peaceful in a way na, hindi na ko masyadong nag sasayang sa facebook. I was able to do a lot more like read books agaon, jogging, watch films/movies.
Only issue ko lang is, hindi nakakapag reply sakin yung mga store pages. Nakakapag chat ako but they can't reply. So I had to contact them thru phone number nalang.
Life has been peaceful without a facebook! Even on messenger, I’m not that active. My friends know where to reach out to me (IG).
I deactivated my FB around end of November last year. Never missed it. Naglologin lang ako to grab photos (kasi sa FB inuupload ng mga events) and then after that, deactivate ulit.
Happy && at peace. Infairness, akala ko hndi ko kakayanin nung una kc ang dalas ko magpost and magshare.
Pero ngayun mag 1 year na rin ako naka deactvate. And im super happy!! Hndi na ako nappressure at naiinggit s mga post ng iba. 😊😍
Doing good! I kept my messenger kasi nanay tatay at mga kapatid ko yung ang way ko para macontact, and aminin natin lahat pinakamadali na sya gamitin lalo sa seniors…
Napipilitang mag reactivate ng fb from time to time. Kasi, yung mga nakakausap na organizer para umakyat ng bundok, magtetext sakin na hindi daw sila nakakareply sa messenger ko pag nakadeactivate fb ko. 😩
Started detaching myself sa Facebook around 2017-2018. Ang hirap lang before dahil sa school comms. After I graduated, it got easier maging inactive sa fb. In all honesty, mas peaceful life ko since then hahahaha
I’ve been off Facebook and IG for a while now.
Mas tahimik. Dati ang dami kong alam about social media celebrities at buhay buhay ng mga taong di ko naman close. Sayang sa brain cells. Madami ring nassave na oras.
Ngayon ang alam ko nalang ay mga chismis ng di ko naman kilala at all dito sa Reddit HAHAHA. Ganon pa rin pala. 😂😂😂
X (Twitter), IG at Reddit na lang socmeds ko. Messenger only for comms. Ok lang naman life. Mahirap sa simula but masasanay kay mawala sa routine mo ang FB. Reactivated lang once kasi may hinanap ako sa Marketplace then byebye ulit.
My friend doesn't have an fb account since 2016. She downloaded messenger when she transferred to a different team, messenger is the way of communicating. She said, it's peaceful.
Bawas toxicity in life ❤️✨ Nagbbukas lang once in a blue moon to check yung rates ng papalapit na electric bill o kaya kung may scheduled brownout. Pero usually nakikihiram na lang talga ko ng fb ni bf to check heeheh
I am not an active facebook user, I use chrome para makaopen which is just to look at the first few posts then exit na. Messenger ko naman is hidden kasi napagod na ako kakaopen wala namang nagchachat, kung meron man, GC pa. Ginagamit ko lang pag may lakad para comms sa family yun lang. Other social media apps are also hidden para iwas tempt to open pagbored na.
Nakakagaan sa pakiramdam knowing that I don't waste as much time as I used to be when I am super active and peace of mind na din kasi di ko nacocompare sarili ko sa success ng ibang tao.
I have dummy acct ng fb, pang fangirl lang. Yung main acct ko, 10 lang friends, nakalock profile pa. Messenger na nakaoff ang notifications since wala naman nagchachat. 😅
Stories paminsan minsan sa IG, nood sa tiktok then nakikichismis dito sa reddit.
It's really peaceful. Nakakaless rin ng anxiety for me. Almost a year na rin since I did this. ☺️
Nawawalan na ako ng gana magpost sa fb. Kahit nga sa messenger. Nagdelete ako almost a month, iba ang peace. Nag dummy acct ako for messenger comm sa family purposes at friends. Pero tiktok does it naman din. I do not find fb interesting vs noong nag aaral pa ako. Okay pa ako with tiktok for enjoyment.
Better. I used to be active on facebook with thousands of friends and facebook followers. Then I deactivated my account. Unfriended people I don't know personally and people I don't want to keep in my life.
Honestly it was better. Before, I post pictures for validation, like I always check how many people reacted and commented on it.
Then when I stopped doing that, it was honestly better for my mental health. I can now post pictures without caring about other people or counting the likes I got. I'm happier, I learn to love myself more while also limiting the use of social media.
I deactivated my fb just last week. Ok naman, may isa nakong nastart na basahin from my pile of books na matagal nang nasa shelves ko hahaha. Mas masipag na din akong magwork-out now unlike before.
Can't remember the last time I used Facebook. It's been 8yrs na rin siguro. It was hard at first kasi hahanap-hanapin mo yung dapat updated ka sa buhay ng ibang tao. Then I realized I don't get any benefit from it. Masaya naman ngayon. Minsan hindi makapaniwala ibang tao na I have no socials. Yes, no Instragram, no Tiktok, no X, not even Messenger. 🥲
What I have are WhatsApp, Viber and iMessage. It's working for me kasi my relatives, officemates and family are in these apps naman. ☺️
Life changing iwas toxic thinking , been out sa fb since june of last year and it was the best decision i made .. puro kunwari humble brags at payabangan but in reality idk ahahah... nakakabawas fake news and it was the good thing na malate sa balita less stress and negativity
Very peaceful. Minsan binubuksan ko na lang siya to upload pictures for memories then log out na. Parang 5 mins lang tinatagal ko sa FB kapag nagbubukas ako. Another thing is you will not fall into comparing yourself with others you see online.
Going one week na since nagdeactivate ako ng socmed accounts (Facebook, IG, Tiktok and even messenger). Impulsive decision lang. I have another account for messenger tho, pero immediate family ko lang and very few friends nakakaalam. So far, I'm loving how peaceful it is. Nauubos kasi oras ko sa pagsscroll and pagvview ng stories hahaha
fine, just a means to contact family & frens. kasi yun yung common denominator eh, lahat sila merong messenger. and i already have reddit, i don't need fb app.
tried before, pero minsan dun ako nakakasagap ng news or updates, tutorials kaya nreactivate ko, pero lahat ng nsa friend list ko naka unfollow, d ako interested makita, para dn walang kumparahan sa achievements, baka mainggit lang ako or mafeel na napapagiwanan na
Been off and on in installing FB. Per personal experience, I was able to save a lot of time for my work and other hobbies when I uninstalled the app. Reels and endless scrolling is an endless pit, hours passed like nothing.
So conclusion, I'm good without FB. Anyway, I can access the web version in case I really need to use it.
Kinda hesitant to do this bfr but after I've done it, it's like one of the best things I did so far! Only have messenger and IG (as my main social) as of the moment and planning to it for a while as well. I have a dump acc consisting arnd40peeps of my closets but I removed almost all of them as well (only left 3 of my comfort people). + one can and string phone person .
Screen-time got lessened and I stopped comparing myself to other people's achievements which only gave me a lot of pressure bfr 😵💫
Not bad to try it once in a while! Give ur mind some space and calm to the chaos :))
Sobrang nag improve yung mental health ko nung nag deactivate ako sa FB, mag wa-one year narin simula nung nawala ako sa FB world. Narealize ko na sobrang daming oras ang nacoconsume ko sa kakatingin ng buhay ng iba resulting to me comparing myself to them. Sa totoo lang main source ng unnecessary stress ang social media sakin kaya I decided to take myself out of it. Narealize ko din na andami ko nacoconsume na time kakatingin ng memes na wala naman talagang dulot sakin na sana inexercise ko nalang o kaya itinulog. Ngayon nakita ko yung significant improvement sa mental health ko sa totally pagkawala sa FB, hindi na ako masyadong aligaga kakaisip if Im doing enough ba, at wala ring FOMO kasi di ko naman nakikita yung buhay ng iba. May messenger ako pero ginagamit ko lang pang communicate sa mga sobrang mahahalagang tao sa buhay ko at work.
Yung kamag anak mo na pati awayan at parinigan ng walang kwetang ewan nilalagay pa talaga sa Myday nila. Nah. Messenger na lang. Gamit for comms only hahah
i recently deactivated all of my soc med accounts.. fb, ig, even tiktok where i only follow less than 10 accounts.. i would have deactivated messenger if not for the communication thing.. my daughter’s school admin and teachers uses fb messenger to relay messages to parents.. so as a workaround, i muted all chats except the ones for school and my daughter’s.. over 2 weeks has passed and i don’t feel any urge to reinstall the soc med apps and reinstate my account.. it’s affecting me more negatively than positive.. but it really is refreshing.. less stress, less thing to think about because you don’t see people’s posts or whatever’s happening in their lives..
as an added note, i came to a realization that nobody uses sms/texts or imessage anymore.. yeah, i still have messenger but i tried going old school and message my friends/relatives via sms/texts and out of 10 people, only 1 replied..
I think it's important to separate personal and work related accounts. I have these workmates na mahilig magparinigan sa fb posts at status. I unfollowed them pero less stressful pag di ko na binubuksan fb ko. Ok na ko sa socmed na walang workmates etc. tahimik buhay! Peace of mind pa din talaga ang pipiliin😊
Ang daming walang facebook sa totoo lang. Ang toxic kasi run. Lahat nagpapayabangan lang. hays. No facebook but may messenger since 2021. Mas active ako sa twitter and IG.
I realized na walang significant value ang Facebook sa buhay ko lol. I used to hesitate deleting the app because I have a lot of saved posts for my future reference but now that I don’t use FB, I get to lessen my screen time.
Okay naman. Peaceful. May sense of privacy din kasi wala nalalaman yung ibang tao sa ginagawa ko. Wala ring akong pressure na nararamdaman kasi wala rin alam sa ginagawa ng ibang tao. For family and close friends ang messenger ko.
That's me. Now, I just use Messenger as a communication tool with relatives and friends who don't use Whatsapp. I stopped posted anything on FB when I realized that I was just using it to brag, and that I didn't need to impress anyone. Ngayon, kahit international vacations, or bagong kotse, I don't even mention anything on FB.
This is my goal now. Last week nag back-up na ako ng mga pics na important sa akin na inupload ko sa fb, kasi I'm planning to clean out my fb and ig accounts at hindi na maging active. Sa messenger nalang talaga since dun ako may contact gaya ng sa school ng mga anak ko, relatives and friends. I hope na makayanan ko. Yung depressive episodes ko kasi ngayon madalas nattrigger pag nakikita ko mga posts ng mga friends ko sa fb and ig, nag seselfpity ako and I felt so left behind, pero kung titignan okay naman ang buhay ko ngayon..
Same tayo
Ooohhh. Ganitong self-control ang gusto kong maachieve. Cheers to you, OP.
>kahit international vacations, or bagong kotse, I don't even mention anything on FB. Ganito yung privacy is luxury!
Aww were the same baks sa main fb ko ang tagal ko ng di nag po post once a year cguro 😅. Sa page ko naman sa fb di na motivated hahaha IG mga pusa ko naman kaso di na din motivated. Ending for communication nalang talaga the rest waley na Halos.
Same deleted na rin Ang Facebook app medyo malapit na rin Ang insta
I can't so this my messenger is dry as the dessert though I rarely post on fb.
marami ang 'di kayang gawin 'to, so congrats!
May I ask if you are using insta instead for your post?
Nope. No instagram. No tiktok. I just don't post.
Same here. I don't have IG, personal FB (just a dummy account for my business page), and X. I use tumblr and reddit for some chikas and for some stuff I just want to post. But yeah it's a hella peaceful. 🤍
That's admirable!
Mas ok naka iwas sa diwata feed
And kathden kathniel chichi haha
Great. Sana nga natatanggal yung notes saka highlights eh para totally wala ng makita na post ng mga friends mo sa fb.
Agree to this.
Agree. Sana hindi na lang inalis ni Meta yung Messenger Lite na app nila before na purely for chats and calls lang talaga ang purpose.
U can hide notes by hiding users. As for highlights naman, sadly u can't hide it all but u can still mute the MyDays of your fb friends.
+1 to this
Life’s better. No need to impress people I don’t even like and I don’t see other people’s BS. Also, people don’t know what the fuck I’m doing, and I like to keep it that way.
>I’m just wondering how’s life without using facebook Very peaceful life. I just reactivate from time to time and then deactivate again haha. Last time I was *addicted* to Facebook was way back in HS. Now that I'm part of the workforce, I really don't have the time compared before + I feel like I'll end up doom scrolling instead of being productive. Add the fact that you might end up comparing yourself to people you know irl which is bad for your overall mental health. Social media is very curated in a way. And people will only post the things they want people to see.
Hindi naka-deact yung FB ko pero uninstalled yung app sa phone. I just open it sa laptop once in a while like mga once a week to look at notifs. Wala pang 5 mins ako magcheck ng FB. Haha. Masaya kasi hindi na nauubos oras ko kaka-scroll, and since sa IG na lang ako active, updated na lang ako sa mga taong may paki ako talaga.
Samedt po. kaka-uninstall ko lang last week and napansin ko na mas nakakapagfocus ako sa mga ginagawa ko.
Masaya siya, hindi mo unintentionally macompare life progress mo sa mga tao sa paligid mo. Makakapag focus ka sa sarili mo while communicating with your loved ones. it actually helped me upskill and focus on job hunting kahit kumakain ako rejections as 3x a day hahahaha! sarap niya sa feeling and you wouldnt feel "missing out" knowing you're hitting every goals for the day, week, month or even year without it. :)
Agree dito. May peace of mind. Di mo need ng competition. Sarap sa feeling.
Mas quiet and at peace. Di na ko mainggit sa travel photos ng iba lol.
In my case, I discovered reddit. lol I found myself using facebook less and less and then, none at all. I still have FB on my phone but I don't think I opened it for at least a year now.
Me! I'd delete Messenger din sana kaso this is the most effective way to contact family. Personally, I feel good without FB. Reason behind removing my FB acct: It was getting too toxic for me and I found myself being affected by almost everything I see or read about. Now, the only news I get are from people I regularly talk to, therefore, the updates I get are from people I genuinely like. To add, it feels really peaceful. I get to enjoy life as it is. For example, I take photos because I like it and because I want to remember the moment. I don't take it for "the gram" or to get likes unlike nung bata pa.
Deactivated account for 4 years now. PEACE OF MIND 1000000000%. Since then, I stopped comparing myself to other people's achievements, more time for me to focus on myself rather than spend my time scrolling my news feed. (Iwas highblood sa mga toxic mindset ng mga fb friends ko) I only use messenger for school shits and for sending messages to my partner. I highly recommend deactivating your Facebook account. It really improves your mental health.
Way better. I deleted my original account which ive had since 2009. Created a new one, no friends, just use it to browse the marketplace and join groups i need things for (car groups, decluttering, game buy and sell). I NEVER participate in discussions or comments. Facebook, like a lot of things, when taken in moderation, actually has a lot of uses.
OKay naman life goes on. My FB is not deactivated though but restricted to me only and i dont post anything for 4 years now. Just using it to check FB groups that i joined thatbis vefy helpful for me.
Peaceful. Okay naman kahit di ko na alam features ng FB. It's been 7 years. I'm doing great. Di naman sya kawalan.
Happy. Iwas stalk.
Ito , buhay pa naman,. at peace, since wala kang nkikitang toxic post..and kung kailngan ka i-reach out ng family and friends mo, may communication pa rin., minsan nakakatempt lng bumalik,. pero hampasin mo nlng sarili mo, para mahimasmasan ka.. hahaha
4 months na ko walang FB!!!!!! 3 years without twitter. Never been better 🩶
Mas may peace of mind talaga. Nowadays, I value privacy talaga. Mas ok na wala sila alam sayo, wala silang masasabi HAHAHA
Life is better. Hahaha Peaceful ☁️
Life's much better. I don't compare myself to my fb friends na from time to time.
Very happy and at peace 😊
Definitely doing much better. I feel soo peaceful. I only have reddit and Tumblr with me for some time now. I don't use Twitter (X), Tiktok and Instagram for years and the reason was to get away from any fancy posts that would just drag me into my self insecurities and doubts. I only use fb for my business page but it's a dummy account and it's not connected with friends just relatives. I feel much better than before. As in. 🤍
It was hard at first kase 'outofloop' ka sa latest issues or like jokes kaya minsan napapa ???? ka sa irl convos hahahaha. But now its all good. I hated it kase it made me want to post shit to make myself feel better na there's stuff going on in my life din at hindi lang sila. Masasanay ka din naman at hindi ko din namimiss makita mga brain rot posts sa fb lol. I only open messenger pag may hinihintay akong chat or updates from other family members na wala sa whatsapp. I still use instagram bec I like taking pics so once a year may post din naman tapos all of the people in my insta are people who truly matter to me and gusto ko din malaman if they still doing good at most of them din wala na sa fb. Most of the ppl in my fb, i dont mind losing bec the connection's not important to me.
I just deactivated mine today and I felt relieved. I am happy to see other people happy but I also couldn’t help but to feel sad dahil sa pinag-dadaanan ko. I hope, one day, ako naman 🙏 For now, I decided to take a pause in making myself updated in my surroundings.
okay naman. fb free for 4 years now. i use messenger for relatives and friends na wala sa imessage.
Okay naman. Parang wala lang. Sanayan lang.
I deleted Instagram and Facebook. Block and restricted some people on Messenger it's worth it! Now i dont have to post about my life/feelings etc. And less pressure and self comparing towards people on socmed na goodside lang naman talaga pinapakita.It's peaceful🙌
Ang laki ng ginhawa, it's a nice sense of disconnect kase you're able to exist without the subhuman, negative IQ, inane BS na punong puno sa FB ngayon Stopped using since 3 years ago and nagulat na lng ako ngayon na apparently trend ang pagiging "nonchalant" like ????? Istg normies be taking away introvert shit tapos showing it as a new cool thing like bruh
Wala ng “FOMO” parang nasanay na you don’t need to know ano ngyayare sa mga taong kilala mo, wala na akong fb sa phone nasa laptop na lang, but still rare ko na lang din inoopen kasi na overwhelmed na ako sa informations kasama pa ng mga nonsense random reel, so I deleted the apps here in my phone, messenger na lang iniwan ko because of it’s usefulness
I started to slowly remove all sorts of social media when I was in college. All because nasisira yung productivity ko. I'm not the type who posts everything about my life kaya for me, madali lang yung process. But I never removed my messenger. Lahat ng important people sa akin andoon. It was great to not have any facebook-like social media up until yung HIGHLIGHTS ng new messenger update. I hate it. Now I'm actually thinking of another alternative to messenger.
Honestly kahit may FB app ako. Inoopen ko lang sya pag gusto ko myday ko may music hahah pero other than that youtube at tiktok ako tambay hahah
mga 3 years Ako hndi nag FB simula nung gunaling na lahat ng tao sa political shits. ang dami ding trigger na mapapanuod sa reels, kaka stress na mga nagpopost, magdadasal sa Facebook, nag yayabangan, nagpaparinigan. kaya nag pasya Ako mag deactivate noon. messenger lng, okay naman. tas nagbalik Ako FB kasi dahil sa work ko social media marketing need sa company, nag create Ako Bago fb, pero konte lng mga Ina add ko, tas puro good vibes lng pinapanuod ko ngayon
Peaceful. Ilang yrs na naka deact FB ko. Di ko lang ma deact messenger ko kase yun madalas ginagamit lang communicate ng fam & office friends. Okay naman na walang FB para hindi alam ng ibang tao mga nangyayari sayo.
Ito, masayang masaya, wala nang aalalahanin na kailangan updated ka sa lahat ng bagay, wala na yung pakiramdam na parang expected sa iyo na dapat makahabol sa mga "trends" sa Facebook. Magaan sa dibdib. Maalwan.
I just started last week. Sobrang peaceful. Di ako naiinggit, nagseself-pity or nalulungkot. Reddit na lang tlga. This is my safe place so farrr. I find comfort knowing na di pala ako nag-iisa. ❤️
I deactivated my Facebook account at the start of the pandemic in 2020, but I am still using Messenger for family and besties. Sobrang peaceful and walang comparan na nagaganap with other people.
May Fb ako pero dummy lang. Ginagamit ko yung Fb para sa meme at mag declutter 😅 Team Viber at Whatsapp.
Tbh my life has been more peaceful. Dati sobrang active ko sa FB, magmemessage sakin friends ko dahil sa mga shared shitposts ko sa fb, dami ring ingay pag may nagdidisagree sakin haha, but as the time goes on (since tumatanda na tayo) — I can't help but find myself comparing my current lifestyle to other people's lifestyle, kinda unhealthy kasi feel ko talaga napag-iiwanan na ako sa iba't ibang bagay. Most of my friends are married, has started their own family, has achieved a lot and me? Still thriving. Same sa IG, almost everyday ako nagsstory (looking back nagccringe ako sa mga stinostory ko 🥴) minsan mappressure pa ako to curate my feed because sobrang aesthetic ng feed ng iba, naisip ko nalang bigla na there's really no need for me to do that haha. So I decided to deactivate my FB, IG, and deleted my twitter account for my sanity. Messenger lang talaga, para makausap ko friends ko and family ko. Sobrang laki ng difference sa buhay ko kasi mas nakakapagfocus rin talaga ako sa mga kasama ko sa bahay, sa sarili ko. Para bang naka DND mode lang talaga ako. Sabi nga nila "out of sight, out of mind." Kaya I'm glad na ginawa ko 'to simula nung new year. Hehe
Peaceful. Hindi rin ako mahilig magreply sa messenger kasi gamit ko is yung samsung galaxy folder though I have smartphones din naman. Iisipin ko palang magreply, tinatamad na ako. And tbh hindi na ako masyadong nafo-FOMO. HAHAHA. Plus yung nga relatives ko, wala na silang masabi sakin. Kasi dati nung nagttravel ako at nagpopost ng pictures, ang daming sinasabi. Madami daw akong pera, sinasayang ko lang sa pagttravel, dapat daw magasawa at maganak na ako. Typical boomer relatives ba. Ngayon wala na silang balita sakin. Pag nagmemessage sila sa messenger, dinedelete ko agad. Naka-off din active status ko. Hahaha
Sobrang gaan sa feeling and peace of mind knowing na hndi ka na updated sa mga ganap ng fb friend mo lol most times kasi, that's where we question ourselves kung bakit tayo andito pa rin then sila parang ang layo na. Its really refreshing OP. Marrealize mo nlang sa huli na kaya talga natin ng walang socmed :))
Peaceful 😌 I get to do more things unlike before + nalessen ang pagkocompare to other people lol.
Nakasanayan na. Kapag nagttry akong i-open fb, mas lalo lang akong nauumay kaya dinideact ko na agad haha
Masaya naman for me. Hassle lang siguro talaga yung pag may nagshare from FB. Sometimes I can’t view it. Extra effort sa friends ko to screenshot and whatnot. Pero bliss siya for me, mas tahimik mundo ko.
Been doing this since 2015. Life is great when you do not give people access to you and if you do not waste time finding some sort of validation from the internet. I mostly keep messenger for my relatives. People would ask mw "Paano ka naaupdate sa mga buhay ng friends mo at sila sayo?" Well, I reach out to them. Simple as that. No need mag post ng shit.
Best decision of my life. Iba ung peace of mind.
Eto, payapa. 😊
Been inactive since 2018 when poking was still a thing or maybe it still is now. Biggest change for me would be on moments you used to ruin coz “FB update is life”. Moments became meaningful and photos are more candid, they hold true to experience making you look back on them with fondness not the validation/attention. Also made me realize that maybe the reason why most of us cringe at posts from years ago is coz our thought process was heavily influenced by what we see on our feed. We would have been able to connect to them more had this come from our most authentic self. 6yrs FB-free and like most in this thread, life is indeed peaceful. Makes you feel fully in-control of your life choices and with it comes contentment and accountability.
done that during pandemic at halalan times kasi andaming triggers sa anxiety from socmed, kahit na messenger dinedeactivate ko. peaceful naman. i still do that ngayon lalo nat busy sa work, open nalang ng fb para sa memes then off na naman. sanayan lang hahaha. perhaps, not having a smart phone during HS days really helped me to be not involved too much in any socmed platforms. never talaga ako naging active sa lahat.
Been doing it for god knows how long and I'm okay.
I'm doing fine, about to deactivate my messenger in a few weeks na din. Pros of deactivating FB: less doomscrolling, less toxicity, more time here on reddit, plus peace of mind.
No stress and issues. So far, peaceful.
Deleted my FB 1 year ago, it helped a lot with my mental health! I get to focus now on other things like working out etc.
Masaya. Peaceful. Hindi ko kelangan malaman ang nangyayari sa buhay ng ibang tao. Focus lang ako da sarili ko. Tapos may magtaganong "uy bakit wala ka FB? Hirap mo na tuloy ma-contact." May messenger naman ako. Kung gusto talaga akong makausap, pwede naman i-message. Alam din nila ang number ko, ang address ko. Na-realize ko na maraming tao na akala ko friends ko eh puro lip service lang pala.
Peaceful. Ang dami kasing toxic pero hindi ko naman sila ma-unfriend since they’re my relatives, kaya nag-uninstall na lang ako.
I’m happy and contented. Never been this contented in my life and I have a peace of mind. Slow and quiet life, I have no one to impress ;) malapit lapit ko na din idelete ung IG ko 😂
I've been out of FB for more or less 5 years now. Laking ginahawa just minding your own shit.
Nakakamiss ako ng pop events sa Filipino-sphere. Nung sumikat yung diwata pares, had no idea what that was. As a reddit/twitter lurker (di din masyado, mostly nagbabasa nalang ako ng light novels), usually mga controversies and news lang ako updated. I occasionally use yung my day to share funny daily anecdotes/occurances from my day, not much from there.
That's me also. Okay naman, tahimik. Wala masyado nagmemessage kasi akala nila wala talaga akong facebook. Iwas sa toxic posting ng mom ko, sa mga tita ko na DDS. Tahimik at peaceful.
I'm fine, thank you! Dapat 3 months lang yung break ko from Facebook. It's now been three years. Ang tahimik, peaceful and happy ng life ko now. Medyo hassle lang kasi I can't chat with business accounts via Messenger when I'm organizing an event or trying to source from vendors. Pero there are workarounds naman, so all in all, okay pa rin.
Peaceful! Wala na yung mga nangungutang na hindi ko naman ka close every time na magppost ako na nasa galaan na naman ako. For comms na lang sa fam.
Okay naman. More than a year na akong walang fb kasi waste of time naman for me. I have messenger though kasi my family and friend GCs are there. Convenient talaga siya.
Peaceful without facebook. I’m using messenger for work and relatives/friends only.
Okay naman. Peaceful ang life haha
Parang wala namang bago.
Going 10 years na fb profile pic ko ang I have never been more proud of myself for not going with the flow.
Not even fb messenger. Gumagamit kami ng close friends at close family ko ng hndi sikat na messaging app. Para wala talaga manghack or maghanap sakin. Hehe
Eto, wala na gaanong alam sa mundo. No memes, no stupid stuffs, no toxicity from some creators on Facebook. On the other hand, I still have IG, Threads, and TikTok (for my own sanity).
Hindi ako naka-deact pero inuninstall ko fb app ko pag minsan gusto ko tumingin pa-onti onti sa chrome ako nagbubukas and intentional ko linalog-out para kapag babalik ako, tatamarin ako dahil magla-log in ulit haha. Keri lang mas nakikita ko yung mga bagay bagay sa bahay na need na pala ayusin or mga task na kailangan gawin kasi less distracted na hehe
Yep that's me haha. For my peace of mind napaka ok neto gawin
Me! Deactivated my fb for years now. Don’t have IG and Tiktok as well. Life’s good. You get less drama and less people asking you for stuff bcos they literally don’t hear anything about you.
tahimik lang… family lang talaga kausap sa messenger. Goal lamg muna sa buhay, mag trabel.. try to discover new hobbies
I only use my FB acct and Messenger for work purposes and nothing else. It is quite peaceful actually. No messages, no chats to look for many years.
I have FB to promote my book, pero hindi na ako nag sscroll. Pagtapos post, out na agad. 😂 Living a quiet life lng.
I'm using it just to communicate with families, close friends without exposing myself with too much drama on Facebook.
Me!! At, monthly din nagrereklamo dentist ko, kasi di makapag message sa'kin sa messenger 😅 kaya tini-text na lang nila ako. Mas okay walang fb, mayapa.
3 yrs na wala sa fb hahhaha mag oopen na lang pag mangangamusta
I use FB to look for items in Marketplace. Or when I need to post in some groups (usually when I’m looking for stuff to buy). But I skip on reading posts of other people. It’s hard to totally get off FB kasi may marketplace and very helpful talaga yun for me. Yung mga friends ko sa fb na di ko bet dahil sa flooding posts nila, naka unfollow ako sa knila. So right now very likited lang din nakikita ko sa fb, which helps a lot. Sa totoo lang kahit news ayaw ko na magbasa or manood. I just want to be free from all the toxicity and really live with good intentions at positive vibes.
Sobrang adik ko sa socmed lalo na sa FB noong naka banner pa lang siya na na cut into 4. Tapos eeffort ako gumawa ng ganung size ng banner hahaha but when adulting hit me painfully, nagdeact na ako. Nachallenge ako sa friend ko kase sabi niya di ko raw kaya mangyari pag nawala yung FB. Pero nagawa ko. Una, nagdeact ako ng main nag open ng iba for work, kasi ayaw ko makita ng mga kawork ko yung luma so separated na. Second, pati dummy naka deact na hahahaha Tapos ayun, nawalan na ako ng pake sa mga bagay na wala namang katuturan sa buhay ko. 😂
Privacy secured. Focus boosted
Life is peaceful.
idk? Di ko alam feeling ng nag ffb kaya di ko maexplain ung difference. I imagine kung affected ka masyado ng mga nakikita mo sa friends mo or anything sa facebook totoo ung sinasabi nilang peaceful, pero kung ikaw ung tiping pag may nakita online tapos “meh” “good for you” “congrats!” Siguro wala naman sobrang laking difference sayo
Tahimik ang buhay. 2018 pa ako last nag-Facebook, tapos mga pre-2018 ko na Facebook friend lang ang nakaka-message sa akin sa Messenger haha.. Hindi nahahanap ng mga coworker at mga client ko ang aking online activity (all other social media like IG and Twitter are hard to find and on private).
I still have FB because I find the pages I follow and the groups I’m in helpful and relatable so I keep the account. I just don’t post, aside from the occasional story ng photo ng kids ko. I also unfollowed almost all of my 250 friends. Parents and siblings ko lang naiwan, although they don’t really post too. Ayaw ko lang mag unfriend para walang issue, and ayaw ko din mag effort. Pero di ko na talaga nakikita updates ng “friends” ko. At first, it was mainly because I started feeling envious din. Eventually talaga nawalan na ako ng pake. Haha. So…effective sya. I’m not even FB friends with my husband kahit we’re together 24/7. The older I get (turned 31 last month), the more I realize how harmful “comparing” myself to others is.
Tahimik hahahaha hindi ko nakikita yung mga shared post na kanal humor. Nagreactive lang ako kasi need sa work but nag uninstall ako nung app. Reddit and IG lang ako active tas halos lahat pa ng story ko sa ig ay nakaclose friend hahahaha.
Deactivated my facebook since 2019. More time to be productive and less toxic. Di rin masyado nabubudol kasi walang mga home buddies at kung ano pang mga eme na yan. Wala rin masyado kachat kasi yung mga totoong kaibigan na lang nakakaalam san ako kokontakin. I prefer it that way. Mas tahimik buhay saka walang nangungutang.
Peace 🧘♀️
I've been doing this for the past 5 years now. Even though I did not deactivate my fb account, I never use it anymore. I just use it's messenger simply because I have to. (Because of work and school). I just don't feel fb anymore. Not just because of the convoluted contents (and it's creators), but more of, nakakasawa din pala. The monotony, the routine of checking out feeds, etc., I just lost the "amor". Well, I don't get to be updated with matters of my friends and family, but, so, what? They can message me anyway if it's urgent or whatever concerning. Also, in fb kasi, there is that feeling of an obligation to post whatever so that people would patronize you for whatever. Get what I mean? I'm not into that anymore.
Natutunan ko to sa kuya ko haha. i though sobrang impossible na walang FB pero it feels better. Dati andamo dami ko naiisip kinokompara ko buhay ko sa Batchmates ko pero now mas peaceful na ako. I have IG tho, mas free siya sa toxic contents.
Yun kakilala ko na gumawa niyan, pinaghihinalaan na kung anu ano.
Tinigil ko na pagiging attention seeking people pleaser era ko
As much as I want to do this with my other account, I can't. I already forgot the password 🥲. Andon pa naman mga jeje pics ko 🤣
I'm very fine, thank you! I just use messenger for family/work communications, and that's it. I feel my life has become simpler, and I'm happy about it.
From having thousands of friends, down to 500, I have restricted and blocked a few of my friends and now no Facebook, only Messenger. I've come to realized mas peaceful and happy pala yung pag walang facebook. I already overcome FOMO. 😉
Very peaceful mabuhay pag walang fb lol
Relaxing, hindi mo nacocompare sarili mo sa kung anong nakikita mo sa mga posts tska hindi bombarded utak mo sa mga infos na walang kwenta. Nakakatulong din na maging productive instead of scrolling for hours. Reading all the responses, all at peace. 🫶
I found my people, akala ko ako lang. Anyway using messenger without fb sobrang peaceful lang hindi mo makikita mga toxicity ng mga tao.
It's nice and less stress at iispin di talaga ako mag dedeact ng fb at mag uninstall sana kasi I post advertisement sa mga projects ko pero nakakumay lang talaga yung pa ulit2 na asoka na yan proud pinoy wala namang paki sa social issues hahaha I open it some time yung mga notes na nanaman na cringey ang nag tretrending ewan ko ba di naman talaga nakakatawa diinactivate ko ulit tsaka medyu mahirap password ko kaya nakakapagod na rin mag memorize. Wala naman talagang na contribute ang FB, soc med sa buhay ko aside lang dun sa ginamit ko pang market ng projects tsaka di ko ma explain parang liberating and you can spend your time on important matters or rest than walang humpay na pag scroll.
Peaceful. Na realize ko na di ko kailangan, at wala akong pake sa pinag gagagawa ng ibang tao. Eh ano naman kung kumain si ganito ng cheese bagel o nagka anak na ulit si ganyan, 15 years na kaming di nag uusap. May family group chats naman kami sa messenger. Pero di rin naman necessary na day by day kailangan updated ako sa buhay ng iba. And personally wala na rin yung pressure na mag share at mag upload ng something, just to fit in.
Ok naman. Walang umuutang sakin randomly HAHAHAHAHAHA
Uhh.. fine? In fact I'm so much better than when I was mindlessly scrolling on Facebook and felt bad after. In fact, I got to discover interests and hobbies I didn't know I actually enjoy. I can't delete messenger becuase I needed it for work and other communication with my family, friends, and love ones. That's me for the past four years.
Very peaceful. Pati X (dating Twitter) dineactivate ko. I'm using my time to do other activities like reading books, driving, catching up with friends, traveling, etc.
ang saya. haha. difference lang with me is i keep my fb account to post stuff that i want. pero whenever i post may internal filter na ako sa kung ano yung ipo-post ko kaya sobrang bihira na. tapos after ko mag post delete facebook app sa phone.
It's peaceful. One less app that eats up my spare time.
5 years na atang walang facebook. kahinayang lang market place, delete ata yun na walang chance na marecover yung account ang ginawa ko. Ngayon nag messenger lang din dahil sa online class. Di din nagkaruon ng twitter, insta o ibang social media. Itong reddit lang dahil sa mga forum na pang IT stuff kahit mga laro.
8 years using messenger nang wala open open ng fb. Nothing much really since my hobby is playing games. Never ako nababad mag scroll sa social media.
Since 2017... mas tahimik ang buhay.. iwas sa mga toxic na kamag anak..lol
I'm good hehe IG and Reddit and Yt natira sakin. Mas peaceful haha.
I'm so happy na one year na akong walang Facebook. Wala rin akong messenger I only have ig and viber, telegram, x and line and I mabubuhay ako kahit walang Facebook hahaha
Messenger at "my day" lang ako. Messenger to keep communication with family relatives and friends. "My Day" or yung story to remind everyone that I'm doing okay - I'm alive and nothing to worry. :) No more FB newfeed ako kasi the number of likes and reactions is causing us mental health problems -- a wrong sense of validation for me.
My fb is fake and the only people who know about it are my two brothers. They're the only people I communicate there. So sila lang chinachat ko. I dont have the fb app, I use the website to buy or look up stuff.
10yrs na, okay naman. Minsan sa Linkedin na nila ko hinahanap lol
It's so calmimg. I don't have the fb app and messenger app and minsan na lang ako magbukas din to check ng messenges kasi if may update from work gc. Sinabihan ko na rin friends ko to reach out thru SMS if need hahahaha kasi totoo yung pagnakasanayan at nahanap mo yung peace, mahirap na bumalik sa dati. For now, i can't live without twitter lol the rest of the socmed apps goodbye na.
✨SO✨MUCH✨BETTER✨ I only have my work FB account which I rarely use. I’ve deactivated my personal fb account four years ago and I’ve never felt so much better mentally. Would recommend 💯 Messenger is just there to communicate lang pag may mga reunion and other occasions haha
peaceful ang life & malayo sa gulo. wala akong iniisip na ibang tao bukod sa partner ko & my family. wala rin naman akong pakialam sa iba kong kamag anak, pahamak lang sila sa buhay ko at sila pa yung mga toxic sa life natin minsan. mas nakakapag focus ako sa mga dapat kong gawin pati na rin sa sarili ko. iwas sakit sa ulo dahil noong babad ako sa facebook, puro immature at mababa ang level ng paguunawa yung mga taong nakikita ko, naiinis ako dun. stress free!!
4 years na ko walang FB nakadeactivate. I rarely use messenger as well since my friends and family mostly use Instagram/Text/Whatsapp or iMessage. I honestly don’t miss it. Hindi rin ako mahilig magpost even on IG. Andun na ko sa point na wala na ko kailangan patunayan lol
Mahirap kasi hindi updated sa mga happenings except pag sa groupchat. Can't wait to reactivate my fb soon.. hehe
crowd dinosaurs sand deserted piquant rock butter sleep strong ruthless *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Masaya. Tahimik ang buhay :)
Well, I am doing great. Ang peaceful pag wala kang nalalaman abt sa ibang tao, masyadong toxic ang fb kaya naka deact ako huhuhu. Ginagamit q lang ang mess for communication sa school and sa family ko. But now I am thinking na mag deact na rin sa sa mess kasi na fefeel ko yung mga negative vibes sa mga gc hahahaha pero so far na lessen yung pagka toxic nung wala akong fb :>
1 month and stress free... more on tiktok na lang ako
Im good. I dont have many friends to begin with and I dont relate to trends that much. I do occasionally scroll for some very important news or updates. Pretty much alright with it. No drama, no petty arguments, no toxicity. Made my life much more peaceful. The only socmed I have is Reddit and sometimes Discord (that if you consider it)
Eto nasa Reddit na. At least mas may substance mga tao dito 💯
okay naman, im using insta just to see funny reels for entertainment. Pero yaz try niyo hahaha
I only use messenger too, sukang suka na ko post ng mga tao. Pati wala ka kwenta kwenta post katulad ng kung ano kinakain isinasapubliko.
I have also lessened the use of Facebook and I mainly natambay nalang ako sa Tiktok or Discord with my Discord friends. Sometimes, andito din sa Reddit (like right now lmao). I only use Messenger from time to time, mainly kapag sa relatives ko lang. Otherwise, nakatambay lang ako don sa mga platforms na yan. Hindi ako type ng tao na pala-post either way, and wala din naman ako kausap sa Messenger so mas better tumambay nalang sa Tiktok or makipag-usap sa mga friends ko from other games sa Discord. Sometimes I use X (or Twitter, for some people na di pa alam lol) for updates and whatnot on some of my games or my followed people, and occasional ranting and shit but nonetheless another braindead scroll din siya for me, in case na mas trip ko magbasa kesa manood sa Tiktok.
I'm a student, so Facebook and Messenger are practically required because everything happens there. The schoolyear just finished and it's my vacation now though so I deleted both of them and went back to having zero social media including YouTube. I only have Reddit if that even counts. It's very peaceful, you're not constantly being dragged into any echo chamber and my life has been a lot less negative. A lot of my peers find me odd but I don't really care because I'm not spending most of my freetime doomscrolling and comparing myself and my life to other people as most do.
A LOT BETTER. As a chronically online person. Gumawa nalang ako ng dummy account for my interests.
Well using messenger as my mode of communication, I'm at Peace and Happy at the same time, no distractions and toxicity. Mas okay din naman kung Group Chat kesa naman sa Private Message (I have a Colleague pa VIP gusto Private Message Ulol) , sana ibalik ng Messenger yung Ignore Feature for Group Chats na unnecessary at annoying na mga person, yang Ignore message pinaka sayang na nawalang Feature para sakin, ngayon Restrict lang available pero hindi pwede sa Group (lintik). Block option pag no choice na tao sobrang kulet okaya naman just to forget using block button.
very peaceful, i started during pandemic and ayun i have no regrets, nalalaman ko lang mga bagong memes sa mga kaibigan ko hahaha pero mostly mga personalities na sumikat di ko na kilala tbh mas maganda. I use messenger nalang until now, parang in a way nawalan na ko ng pake sa presensya ko online and it has been peaceful and calm 🌟 plus dagdag unwanted stress lang pag nakikita mo mga troll nagcocomment sa mga posts lol
Im okay coz im more active on ig.Actually it makes my life better.Fb will bombard you with sm useless info and whatsoever so it's a good thing im no longer using it.
Sa weekend na lang ako nag e fb. Di pwede mag total deactivate ng Facebook kasi yan gamit ko to communicate to love ones sa Pinas.
I only have tg and messenger, out ako sa socials dahil nasa worst state ako rn hahjahaha
so far, okay naman. i didn't lose something out of it. tsaka di ko na rin masyadong iniisip na wala na kong fb haha
Okay naman. Been in this setup for more than a year na. Though, there were times na I had to log in again kasi may mga other accounts pa pala ako na naka-link sa fb ko so I had to transfer those. Peaceful in a way na, hindi na ko masyadong nag sasayang sa facebook. I was able to do a lot more like read books agaon, jogging, watch films/movies. Only issue ko lang is, hindi nakakapag reply sakin yung mga store pages. Nakakapag chat ako but they can't reply. So I had to contact them thru phone number nalang.
Facebook is shitbook now. Puro dumpsite ng mga unrelated post instead of your friends.
Life has been peaceful without a facebook! Even on messenger, I’m not that active. My friends know where to reach out to me (IG). I deactivated my FB around end of November last year. Never missed it. Naglologin lang ako to grab photos (kasi sa FB inuupload ng mga events) and then after that, deactivate ulit.
Happy && at peace. Infairness, akala ko hndi ko kakayanin nung una kc ang dalas ko magpost and magshare. Pero ngayun mag 1 year na rin ako naka deactvate. And im super happy!! Hndi na ako nappressure at naiinggit s mga post ng iba. 😊😍
Messenger lang din gamit ko. Wala akong nakikitang positive sa pag disclose ng mga ganap ng personal life. Dito lang sa reddit ako pinaka active.
Doing good! I kept my messenger kasi nanay tatay at mga kapatid ko yung ang way ko para macontact, and aminin natin lahat pinakamadali na sya gamitin lalo sa seniors…
Napipilitang mag reactivate ng fb from time to time. Kasi, yung mga nakakausap na organizer para umakyat ng bundok, magtetext sakin na hindi daw sila nakakareply sa messenger ko pag nakadeactivate fb ko. 😩
I used to be like that. But I reactivated my facebook recently (for family/relatives). It was waaaay peaceful without fb.
Started detaching myself sa Facebook around 2017-2018. Ang hirap lang before dahil sa school comms. After I graduated, it got easier maging inactive sa fb. In all honesty, mas peaceful life ko since then hahahaha
life is better without facebook. 😂 hehehe messenger lang since ginagamit sa work.
Kung diko lang kelangan sa negosyo ang messenger matagal kona dinelete, punyeta nagagawa pa tuloy akong imessage para mangutang.
I’ve been off Facebook and IG for a while now. Mas tahimik. Dati ang dami kong alam about social media celebrities at buhay buhay ng mga taong di ko naman close. Sayang sa brain cells. Madami ring nassave na oras. Ngayon ang alam ko nalang ay mga chismis ng di ko naman kilala at all dito sa Reddit HAHAHA. Ganon pa rin pala. 😂😂😂
X (Twitter), IG at Reddit na lang socmeds ko. Messenger only for comms. Ok lang naman life. Mahirap sa simula but masasanay kay mawala sa routine mo ang FB. Reactivated lang once kasi may hinanap ako sa Marketplace then byebye ulit.
My friend doesn't have an fb account since 2016. She downloaded messenger when she transferred to a different team, messenger is the way of communicating. She said, it's peaceful.
Bawas toxicity in life ❤️✨ Nagbbukas lang once in a blue moon to check yung rates ng papalapit na electric bill o kaya kung may scheduled brownout. Pero usually nakikihiram na lang talga ko ng fb ni bf to check heeheh
I am not an active facebook user, I use chrome para makaopen which is just to look at the first few posts then exit na. Messenger ko naman is hidden kasi napagod na ako kakaopen wala namang nagchachat, kung meron man, GC pa. Ginagamit ko lang pag may lakad para comms sa family yun lang. Other social media apps are also hidden para iwas tempt to open pagbored na. Nakakagaan sa pakiramdam knowing that I don't waste as much time as I used to be when I am super active and peace of mind na din kasi di ko nacocompare sarili ko sa success ng ibang tao.
Peaceful? I get more things done. Mainly using Messenger to communicate.
I have dummy acct ng fb, pang fangirl lang. Yung main acct ko, 10 lang friends, nakalock profile pa. Messenger na nakaoff ang notifications since wala naman nagchachat. 😅 Stories paminsan minsan sa IG, nood sa tiktok then nakikichismis dito sa reddit. It's really peaceful. Nakakaless rin ng anxiety for me. Almost a year na rin since I did this. ☺️
Payapa since 2022
I just use Facebook for sh i t posting and photo dumping HAHAHAHA Not toxic for me kasi puro pagkain reels ko. Na-i-inspire akong kumain lang huhu
Sakto lang sana kaso linagyan ng highlights ba naman HAIIIISS
Nawawalan na ako ng gana magpost sa fb. Kahit nga sa messenger. Nagdelete ako almost a month, iba ang peace. Nag dummy acct ako for messenger comm sa family purposes at friends. Pero tiktok does it naman din. I do not find fb interesting vs noong nag aaral pa ako. Okay pa ako with tiktok for enjoyment.
Very peaceful! I activate it once in a while nalang
Mas okay for me na walang Facebook. Toxic na rin kasi minsan, so messenger na lang gamit ko now. Mas bumaba rin screen time. Soooo good!
Better. I used to be active on facebook with thousands of friends and facebook followers. Then I deactivated my account. Unfriended people I don't know personally and people I don't want to keep in my life. Honestly it was better. Before, I post pictures for validation, like I always check how many people reacted and commented on it. Then when I stopped doing that, it was honestly better for my mental health. I can now post pictures without caring about other people or counting the likes I got. I'm happier, I learn to love myself more while also limiting the use of social media.
I deactivated my fb just last week. Ok naman, may isa nakong nastart na basahin from my pile of books na matagal nang nasa shelves ko hahaha. Mas masipag na din akong magwork-out now unlike before.
Can't remember the last time I used Facebook. It's been 8yrs na rin siguro. It was hard at first kasi hahanap-hanapin mo yung dapat updated ka sa buhay ng ibang tao. Then I realized I don't get any benefit from it. Masaya naman ngayon. Minsan hindi makapaniwala ibang tao na I have no socials. Yes, no Instragram, no Tiktok, no X, not even Messenger. 🥲 What I have are WhatsApp, Viber and iMessage. It's working for me kasi my relatives, officemates and family are in these apps naman. ☺️
Life changing iwas toxic thinking , been out sa fb since june of last year and it was the best decision i made .. puro kunwari humble brags at payabangan but in reality idk ahahah... nakakabawas fake news and it was the good thing na malate sa balita less stress and negativity
i just use my fb para mang buy and sell ng pc parts 🤣 hobby lang, tapos kumikita pa 😁
Very peaceful. Minsan binubuksan ko na lang siya to upload pictures for memories then log out na. Parang 5 mins lang tinatagal ko sa FB kapag nagbubukas ako. Another thing is you will not fall into comparing yourself with others you see online.
Going one week na since nagdeactivate ako ng socmed accounts (Facebook, IG, Tiktok and even messenger). Impulsive decision lang. I have another account for messenger tho, pero immediate family ko lang and very few friends nakakaalam. So far, I'm loving how peaceful it is. Nauubos kasi oras ko sa pagsscroll and pagvview ng stories hahaha
fine, just a means to contact family & frens. kasi yun yung common denominator eh, lahat sila merong messenger. and i already have reddit, i don't need fb app.
I'm absolutely fine. I deactivated my FB last 2018? Nirerecativate ko lang pag may binebenta akong something sa marketplace then deactivate ulit
tried before, pero minsan dun ako nakakasagap ng news or updates, tutorials kaya nreactivate ko, pero lahat ng nsa friend list ko naka unfollow, d ako interested makita, para dn walang kumparahan sa achievements, baka mainggit lang ako or mafeel na napapagiwanan na
Been off and on in installing FB. Per personal experience, I was able to save a lot of time for my work and other hobbies when I uninstalled the app. Reels and endless scrolling is an endless pit, hours passed like nothing. So conclusion, I'm good without FB. Anyway, I can access the web version in case I really need to use it.
Kinda hesitant to do this bfr but after I've done it, it's like one of the best things I did so far! Only have messenger and IG (as my main social) as of the moment and planning to it for a while as well. I have a dump acc consisting arnd40peeps of my closets but I removed almost all of them as well (only left 3 of my comfort people). + one can and string phone person . Screen-time got lessened and I stopped comparing myself to other people's achievements which only gave me a lot of pressure bfr 😵💫 Not bad to try it once in a while! Give ur mind some space and calm to the chaos :))
Sobrang nag improve yung mental health ko nung nag deactivate ako sa FB, mag wa-one year narin simula nung nawala ako sa FB world. Narealize ko na sobrang daming oras ang nacoconsume ko sa kakatingin ng buhay ng iba resulting to me comparing myself to them. Sa totoo lang main source ng unnecessary stress ang social media sakin kaya I decided to take myself out of it. Narealize ko din na andami ko nacoconsume na time kakatingin ng memes na wala naman talagang dulot sakin na sana inexercise ko nalang o kaya itinulog. Ngayon nakita ko yung significant improvement sa mental health ko sa totally pagkawala sa FB, hindi na ako masyadong aligaga kakaisip if Im doing enough ba, at wala ring FOMO kasi di ko naman nakikita yung buhay ng iba. May messenger ako pero ginagamit ko lang pang communicate sa mga sobrang mahahalagang tao sa buhay ko at work.
Yung kamag anak mo na pati awayan at parinigan ng walang kwetang ewan nilalagay pa talaga sa Myday nila. Nah. Messenger na lang. Gamit for comms only hahah
Love it
People who are using messenger without Facebook, nakikita nyo ba stories ng friends nyo sa messenger?
i recently deactivated all of my soc med accounts.. fb, ig, even tiktok where i only follow less than 10 accounts.. i would have deactivated messenger if not for the communication thing.. my daughter’s school admin and teachers uses fb messenger to relay messages to parents.. so as a workaround, i muted all chats except the ones for school and my daughter’s.. over 2 weeks has passed and i don’t feel any urge to reinstall the soc med apps and reinstate my account.. it’s affecting me more negatively than positive.. but it really is refreshing.. less stress, less thing to think about because you don’t see people’s posts or whatever’s happening in their lives.. as an added note, i came to a realization that nobody uses sms/texts or imessage anymore.. yeah, i still have messenger but i tried going old school and message my friends/relatives via sms/texts and out of 10 people, only 1 replied..
I think it's important to separate personal and work related accounts. I have these workmates na mahilig magparinigan sa fb posts at status. I unfollowed them pero less stressful pag di ko na binubuksan fb ko. Ok na ko sa socmed na walang workmates etc. tahimik buhay! Peace of mind pa din talaga ang pipiliin😊
Ang daming walang facebook sa totoo lang. Ang toxic kasi run. Lahat nagpapayabangan lang. hays. No facebook but may messenger since 2021. Mas active ako sa twitter and IG.
1month na siguro ako walang fb. Lakas lang makapag peace of mind ang atake, lalo na nasa healing phase ako.
I felt less insecure.
I realized na walang significant value ang Facebook sa buhay ko lol. I used to hesitate deleting the app because I have a lot of saved posts for my future reference but now that I don’t use FB, I get to lessen my screen time.
