Lemmings, do you use any social media outside of the Fediverse? (leminal.space)

I'm curious if any of you still use anything other than fediverse. Since discovering it last year I've deleted all my non fedi social media, and it feels great!

Yep - I use Facebook and Instagram regularly. I spend a lot of time in both tapping on "hide this" or "show less of this" or "report and block user", but I find it worth it for the interactions with some like minded people in hobby related groups. I'm aware of the privacy implications, but I figure I've been there for so long there's not much more for them to learn about me. I use ad and tracker blocking to slow them down a little.
