Same here, it's either carry on using it free, with ads, or pay £3 a month to subscribe without add. I've chosen for free but if the ads are too intrusive it's in the bin.

I’ve opted for free. I couldn’t get out of it without carrying on, and didn’t want to do that if I’d got into something fishy. Thanks to the help on this site I am back happily on Facebook. 👏👏👏

When Facebook launched about 20 years ago I thought about trying it out but they wanted too much personal information so I never joined.

That was what drove me out Peter and the fact that they wanted 100% ownership and control of everything that was posted. Too high a price for the utility of the app.

Ubuntu update this morning was almost 450Mb. No problems and very fast. Thanks to Canonical for looking after us for free like this.

I'm sure the Firefox users on here will be making use of this feature to turn off AI :biggrin2:

I would if I knew where to find it! Remember, I am digitally illiterate!
