Just don't use Facebook. Get your friends contact information and text/call/meme directly with them or in groups. You'll find it a much more encouraging and rewarding experience if you connect with people instead of let some big company tell you how to engage with your friends and family.
Edit: I did not expect this thread to be so controversial. I suspect a lot of people really are not ready to give up Facebook.
That's what they're doing, though? They're leaving facebook, and looking for an corpoless alternative.
And you’ll find that a lot of your so-called “friends” won’t include you in any activities if it means they have to contact you separately via other means.
