I’d say leave it. I don’t know about at Facebook, but lots of companies still have that data in their database. They just remove publicly facing versions or index to it. And even if they do remove it they’d have backups and wont go through every backup ever to remove your info. So you’ll always be in there. And even if for some reason they close, they’ll sell all that data to someone else. We have digital ghosts floating everywhere. Don’t give them anymore pieces of you. Just walk away and never look back IMO.
Friendica is what they want. I agree. And you can get all of your content inside Friendica and never leave. Follow mastodon folks, pixelfed folks, lemmy communities, peertube channels, etc.
