Facebook is truly a soulless website

When I logged into Facebook this morning, they put a feed on the top on their webpage to remind me that today was my friend's birthday. I've never met this person before, our relationship revolves around us seeing each other at school. Our conversation consists of "Hi" or "Hello, how's it going" on a daily basis.<br><br>I have never liked or commented on a post on Facebook, yet they still made me click through an ad to get to the newsfeed just so I could remind myself that today was this person's birthday. I didn't even know the person's birthday, yet Facebook assumed I would want to know about it. They thought I cared about this person so much that they would send me a notification just to remind me to give him a happy birthday.<br><br>I thought it was kind of sad. I don't know why they thought I cared about this person so much to the point where they would his birthday, yet they don't even know me or my relationship with him. I don't even know how to feel anymore since Facebook puts this notion in my head that I'm supposed to care about this person.<br><br>People always say to delete Facebook and they're right. It's a terrible website that soullessly connects people that don't know each other just for the sake of harvesting their data. No wonder why every top comment on every post always seems to be a detached comment from a random person that the poster has never met before. This website makes me feel empty.<br><br>In conclusion, Facebook is trash and I regret making an account all those years ago. Go connect with people you know and actually care about, don't let some website harvest your data while also making you think you have friends when you really don't
