Deactivate And Reactivate Facebook Account

Do you really want to deactivate your Facebook account or just need to do some fine-tuning of Facebook privacy or better-still turn off Facebook notification that you don't like.

Agreed!! Some notifications and updates are really energy-draining and if you really want to work at your peak, the best you can do is take a review of the notification you want to get update on.

If you commented on someones post, consider turning notification off for that particular comment if you do not want to follow up. By default, Facebook will send you notification of whatever reaction takes place on that comment.

Same goes to everything else on FB. Set your priority straight and you will not consider quitting.

If you are leaving because of privacy, Facebook allows users to set privacy that protects their ID. You can also block stalkers, frenemies, annoying users, etc.
