Why not just stop visiting FB?

You might lose access to things you logged in with "Login with Facebook" or lose out on some connections that are only on FB. Doom-scrolling FB is a bad idea, but whenever I log in to FB, I do it with a purpose (usually to text someone on FB)

That's a big jump from the time when typing "facebook" in the address bar used to almost be a reflex on opening a new tab.

Another approach is to unsubscribe from everything (friends, groups etc.). You feed is empty, but you can still visit profiles/groups etc. but nothing will be pushed to you.

I did the same thing when I read about a plugin that was banned by facebook for allowing you to unsubscribe form everything and decided I was going to do it manually. Funny that facebook temporarily banned me from unfollowing people even though I was doing it manually, not using an app/plugin.

It's wonderful really.

I deleted my FB account years ago primarily due to its aggressive tracking. The mental health benefits have been a nice bonus.

The change I made was to change my facebook bookmark to messenger, and thus I can still chat to all of my mates who use it to talk but otherwise have to consciously decide to visit facebook itself. I find myself doomscrolling WAY less, and maybe visit it once a day if I'm bored.
