I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.
However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.

I gave up on Facebook when they banned my account for the second time after providing evidence that I exist in both cases.
Technically, my account is still "under review", for the past 8 years.
I used this name, Mystik Incarnate, because, believe it or not, there are more people who know me by this name, compared to how many know me by my legal name.
I remember that Facebook challenged my name back in the day, like 10+ years ago. I took a form of ID and made it say "Mystik Incarnate" as my name, sent that in, and they unblocked my account for a while. A few years later and they did it again. By then, I was already on the fence whether or not I wanted to maintain a Facebook account... But I submitted basically the same thing and..... Well... It's still "being reviewed".
I do have an account under my legal name, mainly as a collector of messages for people that know me professionally or something that are trying to reach out. I check it every few months at most; but that account has no friends, no connections, nothing. I only keep it so people can message me. I don't use their apps or anything, I only log in on the website and usually incognito so that they can't track me across the web.
Every time I see someone's logged in Facebook account, I'm disgusted by how cancerous it has become. Anyone who reaches out to me on that platform I usually try to have them connect with me by email, or some other chat program that's more trustworthy.
Fuck Meta.
Weird nowadays many people I know are using alias on FB without incident. It's a safety issue for women.
