Ten "commandments":

  1. Upload it timeStats and track how much time you spend on Facebook. Because when you see in black and white how much time you've wasted on it, you'll surely have a guilty conscience.
  2. Follow the pages that are informative nature, of which you will actually have some. Change your "newsfeed" eating habits and enjoy less "caloric" content. TED, National Geographic and I fu*king love science is a good place to start.
  3. Set a time limit. Download it StayFocusd and limit yourself to 20 minutes a day. It will be hard, but you can do it!
  4. Go to the air, to "life", to the real world. With the help of Facebook, of course. Find it events, which are near you and attend them.
  5. Turn off unnecessary notifications. How? Go to Settings > Notifications (Select Settings > Notifications). If you're using it as an app, click the menu button and hit the item under Account Settings.
  6. Ignore requests for friendship from strangers. Have more than 1000 friends? It's time to clean up.
  7. Turn off chat room ("chat"). You will automatically receive significantly fewer notifications. Some people are just bored and looking for someone to talk to.
  8. Be less active. You don't have to like or comment of every status. Because less is more.
  9. Save with new statuses. You don't post more than three times a day, if you don't want to be labeled as an attention seeker.
  10. Don't try to impress people, because most of them don't particularly care about others and only care about themselves.
