If some group of friends shuns you because they insist on you using Facebook, then I have bad news for you: they might not be such good friends as you think.
I’ve been off FB for close to 10 years now and I can say with confidence that it has not had any measurable detrimental effect on my social life. My friends know I’m not there and know how to contact me, and they do. An event that is exclusively organized on FB is not an event I want to participate in, so I don’t. Dumping FB probably improved my social life and mental health since I’m not wasting so much life “scrolling the feed” anymore.
