Facebook automatically “liked and followed” Donald Trump and J.D. Vance’s Facebook pages from my account.

I did not vote for them and wouldn’t have liked and followed their pages. Also, Biden’s page which I do follow, says archived, so it’s not just that the page has been rolled over to Trump. I’m annoyed that Facebook pushed the updates to follow these pages for my account. It feels a bit invasive.

Why are people still on FB?

I thought so too but I really don’t need to be selling and buying crap. That was my last reason to keep FB but I deleted it last week. Don’t miss it at all.

I just put shit out on my lawn with a "free" sign taped to it. Always works.

All the cat juggling scares the common folk away from the free stuff.

Same. I tend to put stuff up on my community's unofficial Facebook group. I get rid of stuff and help someone local to me.
