More people want to join the trend of going cold tofu with Facebook, but are unsure of the best way to go about it.

I've not used it for years but have whatsapp and insta, like anything else just leave and the world will not implode.

Little point in fleeing Facebook if one likes it and they are just gonna feed Meta via whatsapp or insta anyway imo.

Any luck with transitioning to Signal and Pixelfed?

Nah, for keeping in contact with family, friends, work and more meta makes things easy and seems the default.

Have considered getting Facebook back after a decade or so away as it still seems rather useful for interacting with local businesses & certain groups......and Whatsapp seems far more invasive anyway.
