I stopped going on facebook a few years ago and don't miss it; I don't even need messenger as everyone migrated to whatsapp (yes I know, normal people don't want to move to signal, but got quite a few techy friends to migrate). The FB-only groups are indeed a problem, I'm delegating them to my wife.
IF I ever had to go to FB for anything, I'd probably install a wall-removing browser extension. Mobile app is of course out of question.

You’ll probably find you can no longer make an account. I’m in the same boat as you (not used and haven’t missed in over a decade), however, my partner needed an account to manage an ad campaign for a client and neither of us were able to make one. Both tried a load of different things and, ultimately, gave up. Had to tell the client what they needed over a video call
Must be something to do with our situation? Basically both I and my partner just got told we were making fraudulent accounts. Used our real names, emails, phone numbers and same result. Used multiple other phone numbers to see if they were blacklisted for some reason, nope. Used my mother’s WiFi in case it was something to do with IP, nope. Tried from India with an Indian phone, nope.
