I rarely ever check my Facebook feed. I'm only on there because of groups I find valuable. I just now checked it randomly. Here's a description of the first ten items in my feed:

Post from a group I belong to
Reels suggested by FB
People FB suggests I follow
Org FB suggests I follow
Post from a group I belong to
Post from a person I follow
Meme from a person I follow
Post from a group I belong to
Org FB suggests I follow
Post from a person I follow

40% of the content is trash.

Sounds like my feed, except I don't follow many people so it's mainly group posts and adverts. I've found useful info in the groups on occasion but the crap (not to mention the scams) has overtaken that.

I'm surprised you're getting as high as 40% - I'd say mine was around 20%
It's a waste of bandwidth

@Nichelle @ErikUden The last time I was on FB (under protest) it was to join a group of people who were all going to the same conference I was.

I totally locked down my account and didn't tell any IRL friends I was (briefly, temporarily) joining.

Even then I had to struggle to see all the group posts and in chronological order.
