thanks all, good to know others aren't as concerned. I didn't notice the facebook stuff except last time I signed in.

Also thanks for all the privacy advice. I don't actively install anti trackers but I also use Opera and turn all all their filters. Sad that they too have recently been infusing their browser with their own annoying ads and "preferred services" which is ironic, but that's another topic.

I cut myself off anything facebook related years ago. I deleted my Epic account yesterday and plan to shift more into GOG. I really don't want to have to abandon GOG sometime in the near future (well, ever).
