I'd be totally fine without the routine of going to Facebook. My problem is that there's not a clear substitute for the specific typos of info I use it for, for the specific relationships I maintain through it, and for the reach I get for things I share.
I don't know if you have a fanpage or anything, but if you just do it personally, I have far more reach sharing on HN, reddit, and my personal site compared to Facebook.
The problem with Facebook other than bad privacy is that it doesn't take much to press the like button. Someone clicking like doesn't mean shit - maybe they're being nice to you. Most likely they're bored. Next 5 seconds their mind will be to something else. Plus, Facebook is ruthless to the freshness of things, so shit you spent a lot of time producing only gets a shot temporarily in the present and then imediatelly forgotten if they shared to 10 people and they don't care. You're not a creator, you're an easily replacacle cog in their system. I have had things that picked up long after I produced them on my site - I can't imagine doing that with Facebook.
