Facebook seems to me very shallow with its meaningless likes and be my friend. Not my thing at all. And I don't particularly mind about not having control over who sees my posts here. I won't share if I feel I don't want it to be seen by whoever. And I quite like the way some of my nostalgia posts have been picked up by people searching the net, which has encouraged them to join Accyweb themselves.

I agree. We decide what we want to share by posting on here.
However comfortable that might feel, the fact is every word is accessible to anyone in the whole world, forever more.
Unlike Facebook, where what you share is limited to those people you've decided can have access to what you've shared.
I'll say again, it is what you make of it, like anything else.
No one's pressurised to collect friends, or click that they 'like' anything.
People make informed choices. Just as they do on here.
