    In some people’s limited defense, lol, Facebook does that automatically. Or, it’ll at least bring those up in your own feed (or something like that; my FB knowledge is secondhand since 2009).

    My friend will send me random pictures from college that came up on her FB page’s “On this day…”.

    Not sure if those are visible to everyone or just her, but the platform itself does throw out 'member-berries.

      1. You don’t have to re-share them all.
      2. It’s admittedly much worse if your High School and College pictures aren’t already on FB.

        I did say limited defense lol. No idea if she re-shares those or not or just texts me the ones I’m in. I think it’s the latter, but who knows.

          Yes, and as someone who stays on Facebook as a proxy for actually communicating with people I’m fond of but don’t want to call (as well as some practical communication needs), you get basically a daily dose at this point, with a single click to reshare. I click it probably once a month for my fellow olds who are still on the site, though most of mine are baby pictures of my kid.
