The only thing that is currently keeping me from deleting my account is the chat functionality, The author makes a good point when it comes to the amount of "friends" you actually care about. My life would probably be no different if I never heard from 90 % of my Facebook friends ever again. However, it will probably be quite difficult to convince my friends to migrate to a different service. Another problem is the rare occation when I have to contact an acquaintance. Without Facebook this would mean going hunting for their contact info, which might be difficult.

You can use Messenger with deactivated Facebook account by the way.
