Well the OP is right about one thing: Facebook has become less personal.

I regret accepting old high school/college friends (who I haven't' seen in 25 years), army buds, and family members I didn't even know I had.

Now I post, maybe once every 2 weeks. Usually something safe - like about the current game I'm playing. I don't dare get personal on FB now.




"I don't dare get personal on FB now."

The irony.


Indeed - the more 'connected' we are, the more socialized we're forced to be. Facebook is not the third place simply because there are too many appearances we're have to maintain.


Just remove them. They'll still stay on as subscribers and see public posts.
