How about don't go back to farcebook or twatter because their companies like to ban trump supporters, conservatives, and "misinformation" that makes the left look bad for no reason whatsoever and sell all your personal data to third party companies. I quit farcebook and twatter a long time ago.
Back when Facebook started, I asked one of my best friends about staying connected through any chat platform. He pointed out, "I don't even have enough time for the friends and family that do matter to me right now. If they REALLY want to stay connected with me, they will find a way."
We've known each other for 20 years and still talk on a daily basis. We're not on Facebook or Twitter.
Agreed; MANY folks feel they're dependent on these online platforms whatever the reason may be. It's not like we haven't had other means of keeping up with those who ARE WORTH MAINTAINING relationships with but that's a whole other can of interpersonal worms.
I firmly believe the advent of platforms like these has obliterated the real, human-to-human communities people had not that long ago despite their decline having been ongoing for decades at least. Technology only sped it up exponentially, much to the ruling class' glee.
Lead by example, and if they won't meet you halfway in maintaining the relationship then they aren't worth the time. This is a hard and terrible pill to swallow for those that believe that family is/should be inseparable, yet have abusive and manipulative family members/friends that really should be cut-out.
Then again, anything worth having isn't easily gained.
I stopped posting to FB back in March 2020. Never announced I was leaving, just stopped posting. Out of my 300+ friends, fewer than 5 have contacted me via text or messenger since then. I only still have my personal page so I can manage my business page. I don’t miss it, and my real friends have kept in contact. Good riddance to it.
If anyone here went back in time to 2017 and said NOTHING would happen regarding Q before November 2020, people would have blasted them for being doomers and doubters. If Biden winning was part of the plan, then not one of us had any idea what the plan ever was. Everything is being retconned now to try to account for present reality.

There's many other platforms that value free-speech that you can refer your family to. That's what I did.
facebook and twitter will never change, they are run by authoritarian socialists and they will always be that way
Don't ever go back to facebook or twitter.
