I'm of the minority that says ban it completely. It has done this country and the world absolutely no favors. Ever since the Epstein class realized they could use it to brain wash morons to support their asinine beliefs, it has gone to shit. Foreign adversaries have manipulated it to spread propaganda and divide the country. It didn't have to be like this. Facebook was just a place to talk to your friends and post photos from the party you were at with them. Everything was chronological and you only heard from people that you actually knew IRL. We couldn't have that, because Zuckerberg needed to sell ads. The decision to open up the feed and show you shit from random ass people gave birth to influencer culture and massive amounts of mis /disinformation.
Are you, by any means, aware of what Lemmy (and Fediverse platforms) is (are)?
I get it, but it's more akin to a message board than Facebook
"But the leopards wont eat my face"
Hate to break it to you but in the countries where they are restricting it they are doing so to Youtube and Reddit and many other places. Anywhere the plebs can talk to each other.
