You can still survive without Facebook-crap perfectly. On the other hand it's hard to survive without either an Android or iPhone device.
Survive, yes, but you will loose out on connections with other people. For some of us that is a price worth paying but it is still a price.
its pretty easy to "survive". Why do you make it seem like life and death??
Though doing without WhatsApp is getting dicey with a preschooler in a couple of activities, and it will probably get even harder to keep my heels dug in once he's in school...
