It's such an easy fix too. Create a separate wall that only contains your friends' OC (not reshared garbage).
It's about 3 posts per day for someone with 200 friends, but I'd take it.

So... original, unshittified Facebook?
-
I'm amazed that's not what FB still is. I apparently bailed before the worst of it because I don't recall seeing random people's posts on my feed.

Last time I logged into Facebook I noticed a lot of the recommends included feeds of attractive women. I mean, I like women with gyatts, butt clearly their algos have been fine tuned on what kind of content they serve: sexual content and alt-right garbage
I miss the good old days when it was just updates from friends.

I wonder if a fediverse version of that would resonate with any of my friends and family. Seems like we are where we started with forums, just strangers respectfully taking about their common interests. Social media is indeed dead.

Too late for that. We have TikTok now. Everyone needs a new dopamine hit every 3 seconds and god forbid you run out of new things in your feed.
The era of social media IS over. Even if you make a good one.

check out the Fediverse...

I'm here. Ain't no billions of people rushing to join us.

Not necessarily a bad thing.

Agree. Lemmy doesn't need to have as many users as other platforms to be good.
If ppl can't understand what's so good about Lemmy then they are just suckers who deserve to be taken advantage of by corporations.

You actually can nearly do that. Facebook inexplicably showed me how a few weeks ago. If a friend reshares something, you'll see it, but it removes all groups, etc. It was stunning how little content actually comes from friends.
On the Facebook site (I'm sure it can be done via app, too, but I didn't look), click on the menu near the top right, then click Feeds (under Social). Then click on Friends on the left.

Wow, is does. Thanks for that
