That's not the issue I have with it. When Facebook was started it was about being in contact with and following friends. With the way it is set up now ads and other pages I have liked make it hard to even find friends posts at times.
That and the people that post 25 pictures of what they do everyday drive me crazy with it anymore.

No. But Facebook has become a norm for a different generation than it was originally intended.
The biggest issue with Facebook is the lack of a chronological timeline anymore. Supposedly there is a way to change this setting back but it has not seemed to work for me.
Don't use it as much anymore.
I hate the dumb ass posts from all the radio stations. Terrible memes, stupid videos, that get shared millions of times. Drives me nuts.

Sounds to me like you need better friends who don't just share a bunch of memes and vine-type videos.
IMO, Facebook has been split into two groups 1) people aged 30 and older who can post and/or see pictures of their kids/grandchildren 2) People that are trying to impress their peers by posting pictures of their vacations/meals/fitness accomplishments,etc.
Facebook did a good job marketing and making a fairly user-friendly product that didn't "scare" older users. Unfortunately for them, that was also a good way to alienate them from the younger demographic.
To be fair, I think every social media platform will have a limited lifespan from here on out. Once the older demographic catches on to it, the younger generation is going to find something that is uniquely "theirs".

I used to really like facebook...5-6 years ago. Now it's for:
1. Old people
2. Nosy people
3. People who think that everyone cares about what they're doing or their kids.
I got rid of it quite awhile ago and have not missed it once. I love the facebook addict that has to tell you "Did you see this guy from our hometown died?" or "Did you see this girl is pregnant again?". WTF do I care about that? If I wanted to keep up with some old acquaintance, I'd make an effort to.

I have found that I enjoy facebook so much more after unfollowing about 50 people so I don't see their crap in my newsfeed anymore.
This, if you don't like what is on your timeline, unfried and unfollow anyone or anything you don't like. That will solve 85% if the problem
