Well I gave it a go, but it is so invasive. I am constantly getting

Facebook is what you want it to be. Eventually.

I like it, but then I stopped all emails & notifications straight away,
locked down my privacy settings, and over time have blocked the things
I don't want to see.

Of course, all this takes a little time to get into place and I can see
that "out of the box" it can appear very intrusive but IMO the pros
outweight the cons (which for me, now, are few & far between).

I think that's a very good explanation of it. You can select who sees
your posts and separate them into distinct groups, too.
