Having quit Facebook some 4+ years ago, I think about these things too and have come to the conclusion that:
a) I don't need to know about the project my distant friend is working on, or the food anyone is making or eating* .
b) A solution that existed before Facebook were X-Mas cards. So, I think that's what I'll be doing when I no longer see my parents and close friends daily.
* On a side note, my mom calls my grandma for an hour or so weekly and they frequently talk about what they cooked and exchange recipes, but that's more personal than a Facebook/Instagram post.
