I have Facebook messenger app installed for the sake of a couple of people, and I check the Facebook main page once in a blue moon to respond to event invites from a friend.

Other than this I don't use Facebook at all any more and have used it very very little for the past several years.

I use a browser that tries to protect me from trackers and ads.

To me, this is what makes sense to do.

But they still get a significant amount of my attention because I use Instagram though.

The main issue here is that they also get to link all the other app events to your facebook account due to the facebook sdk and the fact you installed the app on the phone.
