    Deactivated Facebook about 6 years ago. That shit is toxic and anyone that still has an account supports it.

      Unfortunately a lot of local communities and businesses around me only update Facebook. Last time the transfer station closed last minute I went there with a load of trash and had to bring it back home, only place that it was posted was the Facebook page. Not to mention u need it if ur ever going to buy a used vehicle private party among other things. I REALLY wish there was an alternative, I miss craigslist for buy/ sell but fb still needed for local information unfortunately :/

        Those local community business have websites. I guarantee it. There is no excuse to support a business that protects child abuse fetush and rape.

          A lot of businesses do, but the town transfer station? What am I supposed to do start dumping in the river instead? Lol not to mention if I wanna know why there was a fire stack coming from the railroad the only place that had information was the county fire response Facebook page. I promise you the more rural of an area your in, the less escapable Facebook is. Can’t just pick another business when the next nearest is going to be 50+ miles away :/
