Facebook's new feature might help me wean myself off it

[JEDI]

now instead of continuous scroll, you have to click on 'More stories' to see more updates from your facebook friends when you reach the bottom of the page.

im lazy.
I wont click.
when I reach that point, I stop and close facebook.

I prob missed dozens of updates each time I goto facebook.

+1 for less time wasted

I hate the fact that it auto-plays any video. 40 minute YouTube video? PLAY IT!

It's hilarious that it is on by default, but I turned that off immediately.

I've made Facebook a weekly thing. Not because I wanted to, but because I was tried of it just being the same god damn news articles being shared over and over again. If I wanted to read the news I would go to a news website. Facebook is for stalking the lives of people I used to talk to.

You can have it save your login info if you wish.

You can turn that off (thankfully!). That was really irritating when they started doing that, especially since I was on a metered connection at the time with very low monthly allowance

worse is espn that even after turning off autoplay keeps turning itslef back on.

Nothing wrong with the 2002 web. Pages loaded fast, and you weren't bombarded with crap from 20 different domains. Web devs could stand to review history every so often.

I have bookmarks easily accessible for sites I go to alot. I deleted the one to Facebook and i never go there now. The only annoying thing left is the e-mails that i get. And I don't want to go to the web site to remove the mail notifications.

it not just facebook that's guilty of that, although its probably the major offender that inspired browser addons that stop flash/video players from automatically loading/playing
