I stay on FB, too.

Not only does FB (and other social networks) use sophisticated algorithms, but also your friends (and you!) have options with respect to your feed. You can be friends with someone but unfollow them. This means that you remain friends but their posts do not show up in your feed. Given that you are not a frequent poster, it is unlikely that any of your friends have intentionally unfollowed you while remaining friends, but it is a possibility.
