I guess I'm an old geezer at 56 as I do not have a Facebook account. Or any other social media accounts for that matter.

Welcome to the club! The anti-social media Luddite crowd. We're almost as cool as the anti-grading crowd, except that we don't post about it quite as often.

I like your thinking and just might give that a try.

More than half so far are “no” to using FB… interesting but not too surprising. Anyone here know how many Net54 active members there are?

If anyone who is “Facebook Vintage Curious” reach out to me and I can suggest the best pages (in my experience/opinion) and how to easily avoid the scammers and knuckleheads.

Most active members on the best FB vintage pages are pretty awesome people and collectors. Have developed lots of new hobby friends and collections there.

Believe me - it’s nothing like the social media your kids are using… selling, buying, discussions, etc.

Nice to have some focused pages too - pre-war, unopened, Red Sox focused, etc. Overall, I think it’s a great community over there too (again, with selected pages).

The best pages have their own “Leon” who keeps a watchful eye on the page and they do a really great job.

Thx all, who responded.

I appreciate folks who are predominently here. FB is ok but I don't follow rules very well, so, this place with less rules seems like a better place for me.

I had a PM from a very good, newer, member yesterday. He couldn't believe someone could say what they did and not get banned. I told him that folks here can say what they want to, for the most part, and not have to worry about it. If someone is an ass, and you have your name next to your posts, you can call them for what they are .

There are right at 15000 registered members. We get about 50-100 new users a month.
I am not sure how many post very often.
For the record, I look at FB mostly for dog rescue stuff and am in a few groups that I rarely post in.

Card groups are the only reason I'm still on Facebook. I've also made contacts and bought and sold several times through Instagram and TikTok as well.
