WIY, congrats on dealing effectively with your YH and getting off FB. You should be zocheh to be able to meet your future challenges in the same way.
I never signed up just for the reasons you indicated. How much time have I saved myself by not having an account? I can’t count the minutes. I do wish I could see more of my family, but I’m actually not sure who has an FB account that it might have been worth it for me to sign up for one, so I’m not starting now.
I just wanted to add a note about the blinking ads, which I mentioned in another thread. I use Firefox (don’t know which browser you use) and I have an add-on called AdBlock Plus. I have the simplest list of ads blocks and I see NOTHING on YWN or anything else. It’s a pleasure since I was getting dizzy and having a headache with all of the blinking things on the home pages. B”H the CR doesn’t have blinking ads – or does it and I just don’t see them?
