Facebook's Getting Annoying..

I first got a Facebook when I was in middle school and it was a way to see what my friends and extended family members were doing, and that's it. Now, Facebook has been blown up with personal articles, buzzfeeds, blogs, news articles... I can't scroll through Facebook without seeing an article that sounds something like.. "This Woman Was Just Shopping.. But What Happens Next is Shocking." I don't really care what happens next I just want to catch up with my friends. Facebook has been flooded with useless ads and articles that I would normally go to other websites to find, not a social networking site, but I think that is what social networking is turning into now. There is now a "trending" tab on the top right of the site that shows what topics and articles are the most popular. Because of all of these excess articles and news on Facebook, I now prefer Instagram, which shows pictures of only my friends and nothing else. When I go onto Facebook, I feel bombarded with media and it is a bit overwhelming.
