[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because some of us use Facebook as our diaries and photo albums. That is all. Judge away: it’s not going to change. I love the convenience [/quote]

Why not let Google photos give you “this time last year” photo montages then? Or post the pictures with captions to a private or shared folder? Honest question. Because when I scroll FB I often see people doing as you do and they even say (cringe) “dear diary- here are some November moments for the books! I know I’ll love seeing these memories roll around next year!” Like, why make it public?[/quote]

I too am baffled when people post things like "October photo dump" and then it's like 40 photos of them, their kids, and every social outing from that month. It doesn't trigger me or make me feel left out, I just don't understand it. Is this really the best way to organize and compile photos from your life?

But I'm also just fundamentally baffled by anyone who posts tons of photos of their kids online or gives a huge number of their photos to social media sites where they will 100% use them in creepy ways (like by creating a profile of your child before they are even old enough to have accounts, plumbing your photos for info about you as a consumer, etc.). I only participate in social media to the degree that work, school, etc. require it so I can fully participate. It has never occurred to me to share tons of personal photos of my family or friends with them? Seems bad but you do you.[/quote]
