I think creatives on Facebook overestimate their value to an extent, I use Facebook to see what my friends and family are doing, and because the sports I do are mostly arranged through Facebook pages.
The webcomics etc I follow are cool, but if they stopped posting I wouldn’t really miss them all that much.
I actually stopped using Facebook because they started forcing all this other shit on me. Like you said, I used it to keep in contact with friends and family. The site has made it increasingly harder to do that, to the point where now it’s 95% shit I never agreed to see. So I just stopped going there. It’s sad because it was a a great platform for friends and family.
I use it for the same reasons as you and I also follow local news outlets and local government since Twitter went to crap. I follow a few special interest groups but political posts, probably by bots is making most of these groups unusable. I couldn’t care less about the content. I go to other platforms for that

I think they eased up on that, I just didn’t log in for quite a while because it was all recommendations for meme pages.
