Lemmy is the only platform I engage with. I closed down or abandoned all other platforms around the same time you did. My quality of life has greatly improved since, though I do still miss certain aspects sometimes.

I deleted my FB, Instagram, and Twitter when I joined the fediverse in June of 2023. So far the only thing I miss are FB event invites. Now my friends have to specially message me for events they put together. Otherwise it’s been a great change.

Yeah, those are the things I miss too. It feels like being a bit outside of a bubble looking in sometimes.
And then those early days of Facebook, where it was actually useful and engaging, I miss those days too. But the world is a different place now and the slippery slope is too slippery for me to feel comfortable getting anywhere close to that slope.

Only had FB but yes, if they want me to attend they have to reach out some other way. I also moved to another city so I can’t attend as much any more anyway but sometimes it is a bit lonely. No regrets however.
