"Folks from varying distances are able to keep up with their friends and family" - this is literally the only reason I have a Facebook account.

Most of my family is not very tech-savvy so asking them to use something like Mastodon to see family pictures or whatever is pointless. Even if they did try to use it, all of their other friends and family are on Facebook so asking them to use Mastodon just for me adds one more thing/app to their list that they are probably going to use maybe twice and then just stop.

I really wish there was a good alternative to this but I haven't been able to find anything (yet) :(.
