I usually find it pretty terrible and so hardly ever visit, so let's try:

* 10 day old post from someone I know, involving other people I know

* a reel, with no origin specified

* People you may know

* a recent post from someone I know

* an old post from someone I know

* a recent photo from someone I know

* an old post from someone I know

* People you may know

* An old post from someone I don't know tagging someone I know

* then I scroll further and it does a weird jumping thing so I can no longer keep track of where I was

This is actually better than I remember in terms of "relevant" things, but I long ago lost the habit of facebook, and sometimes seem to get a whole lot of stuff that doesn't feel relevant which tends to put me off. Also that odd scrolling behaviour that starts happening after a bit.

ISTR some people observing that if you've been gone for a while they stack the deck in favor of things relevant to specifically you. Which may be why you report so many old things; they may have been reaching back trying to find those things specifically. If you were browsing routinely they might never show you those old things.
