Facebook Doesn’t Listen

I hate the Facebook story thing. I’m not even sure what it’s for, because I don’t really care. I’m fine with just scrolling my newsfeed and am not sure what they were trying to accomplish with the whole “story” thing. I just know it is annoying.

I’m sure plenty of you have interesting stories. I’m sure of this. What I’m even more sure of is that I don’t need to get notifications that anyone has updated their stories. I’m not tracking anyone’s story anyway.

What I really don’t need is the several times a week reminders that a couple of people have updated their stories after I muted them. I actually watch what these people are doing on Facebook, but I had to mute their stories because Facebook kept popping up notifications about them updating rather than just showing me in my timeline. Of course, Facebook doesn’t listen. Mute apparently has no function. I mute a person’s story each time Facebook gives me a notification about it, yet they still pop something up a few days later. It just keeps happening. I’ve had to unfollow a couple people trying to get it to stop and hope it doesn’t end up with me having to unfriend them just to get it to stop.

I hate garbage notifications, and more and more of my notifications turn out to be garbage while I occasionally don’t get notifications on actual things.

I just don’t get it.
