    Thing is, people stay on Facebook because their friends and family are on Facebook. Reddit is far more anonymous and therefore has far less inertia.

      I would drop kick FB in a heart beat if it wasn’t for that shitty platform being my only means of communication with some family and friends. WTF happened to email and phone calls/txt jesus.

          I wish I could do that. But I’m disabled which is isolating by itself but also makes maintaining friendships difficult let alone making new friends.

          So unfortunately the few friends I do have are firmly entrenched in FB and I have little recourse to make more friends. They’re good people. Genuinely good people so I don’t want to ditch them anyway, they’ve just been wicked into social media addiction and entrapment the same way many have been.
