I think most people recognise that, from a user perspective, the product is getting objectively worse.

My usage pattern is typically 5 minutes a day, via browser with uBO, on a desktop computer. I don't/won't use or install any FB-suite apps on my phone.

I have tried to use ?sk=h_chr to force a chronology rather than 'top stories' <sic> but that doesn't seem to make any difference any longer.

Since the 'Reels' push started I've had that section appear every time I've logged in, usually within the top half dozen entries.

Every time I hamburger menu / 'Hide this type', but Hide doesn't actually hide of course -- it just promises to 'show less', which is also clearly a lie.

The product's increasingly user-hostile. The phrase 'death throes' seems appropriate.
