I remember when you could go on Facebook and look through your feed at what your friends are saying, catch up with them, and browse posts that they have made. Now, it’s just completely random and chaotic, almost nonsensical. There’s no logical sense to my Facebook feed at all. As you can see in the image, they are showing me stuff that I’m not even following. This is not even something that I am actively a part of! It’s some random group. So what’s the point of following a group or liking a page, if they’re just going to show you random stuff anyway?

Like, wtf happened to this website?

    Fair, but you can do a lot to limit what data it has, like using extensions like “Facebook Container” on Firefox to block tracking across various sites. It’s not going to prevent your grandma from adding you as a grandchild and your parents from linking you to themselves, but it can do a lot to limit how bad the tracking is.
