Basically do you gransnetters enjoy using the apps, I must admit I’m on Instagram Facebook and Twitter and while I’m sitting down having a coffee I love to go on Instagram or Twitter to see the lovely animals especially!

My profile is locked down to the extreme. If you go to your profile and under the "edit profile" button you'll see three dots, click on those and click "view as public" to see what you're showing the world. Mine only shows a profile pic, which isn't even up to date.

Yes, mine is the same. You can have whatever you want as your profile pic - it could be your cat, dog, a flower, whatever.

I use Facebook. I find the local groups useful and informative for local events and finding tradesmen. The local history groups are enjoyable. I keep in touch with long distance family and friends as well. I don't see all the toxic stuff people talk about.

I made my birthday only visible to me grin A lot of my privacy settings are like that. I think FB is prime stalking ground, otherwise.
