Facebook is closing in on 20 years of being available to anyone with an email address.

The easiest way to find your oldest posts is to load Facebook on the web.

You can go back through your posts on mobile, too, using the platform’s built-in search engine.

If you don’t remember when you joined, you can find the year you joined Facebook.

X, which was previously known as Twitter , can often be a place for opinions and takes.

Your first -ever Instagram posts will then appear at the top of the screen.

If you see something you’d rather not have on your profile, tap on the post, tap the three dots in the top-right corner.

The same menu lets you archive a post, which means you can still see it (and all the comments and likes) but it's hidden for everyone else.
