Pestered by Facebook!
Posted: Fri Jun 08, 2018 1:23 pm
Just wondered if anyone knew their way around the (probably deliberately) complicated Privacy and Notification settings in Facebook. I don't use FB much but it's useful when I have taken some photos of the local jazz bands and want to share them with the band and other people who were there.
But FB seems to resent the fact that I'm not a frequent user! I get bombarded with "New friend suggestions" (usually people I have never heard of and living in the USA ..) or notifications about Fred Bloggs changing his profile photo .. I have turned off a lot of the options but can't find a way to stop these particular nuisances.
I don't know how Snapchat or the other apps compare with FB for my fairly superficial level of "social networking" but everyone seems to use FB for keeping in touch with the local music events.
