My neighbourhood facebook group is pretty useful. I have discover a running group on facebook to run with people, it's cool and improve my mwntal health. All critisizm about facebook is valid but as long as it's useful to me, i'll stay on it.

Add in 2016 allowed me to prune/unfollow a number of crazy people.
