I did it. Finally. My meta account is in process for deletion! (Whatever that process actually involves we'll probably never know). But I did what I could and deleted all posts, pictures, aswell as changing name and email. Hoping that at least helps a bit. Feels good to finally get rid of what has felt like a burden for a long time.

Was able to move more people than I had imagined over to Signal, some easier to move than others ofc. But it truly helps that Signal is a breeze to use and setup for folks.

Anyway I just wanted to share what feels like a good achievement with you all. Hopefully you're also able to do the same during 2025, there are many good alternatives these days!

Have a good rest of your week!

congratulations! I got my Facebook deletion unconsentually, I guess there was an exploit or something because I tried to log in for the first time in over a year to look at a band and got met with a "your account will be deleted in 70 days" message with a name that isn't mine. Can't appeal without literally scanning my face so... uh.. I'm good.
