Create a facebook account with a false name if you like. My dad has done that to see photos of grandkids, travel etc of the family. This way he doesn't have an 'online profile'. There are actually some other really good NZ based groups on FB that tend to discuss macro economic themes. I think FB is great and is like an internet within an internet. I've invested in them and will never sell, FB has unlimited growth in my eyes.
FB and other Social Media are evil. If you must, do not follow their 'curated' content. Stick to reading 'group' posts and *not* read the news feed. Twitter is even worse. Do not ever. We, as in Human Beings, are the product of these companies and are simply human futures to be exploited some later date. One minute you are a Flat Earther the next you will be coerced by AI curated content and breaking in Pizza shops with a shot gun looking for child traffickers. Yes that actually happened. Why do you think the cognoscenti of Silicon Valley pro-actively have moratoriums on social media and devices in their homes?
Quite a few Karens on FB I'm told
For anyone who has forgotten, or doesnt know, there is a Newbies corner available here under Forums header.
Plenty of expertise to tap into here, for those that want it.
The Sharesies facebook group is not as bad as it used to be. The posters focus seems to have shifted to US shares. Plenty of Tesla and ARK funds fans and heaven forbid you try to temper their enthusiasm!
