I passed on it a decade ago. Got out when shit was getting bad with ads, memes, and other stuff not actually "social".

It's the opposite of social. Especially facebook. There are only companies there, no actual people left (except some boomers maybe)

My parents are on Facebook every day and so are their friends. I’m pretty sure Facebook is what happened to all the Gen Xers.

How very dare you? Gen X is long off Facebook - it's our parents on there, being radicalised by Russian bots

Gen X is most of the fediverse!
