There are many cases where it is very reluctant for someone to see that you are active, but since it is a function provided by default on Facebook, you have to manually turn off your activity status. However, since this is simpler than you think, please try setting it up right away.

Facebook Messenger: What is Change Activity Status?
There are times when you do not want others to know about your activity on Facebook. Facebook is generally meant to share with others. It’s obvious that you’re logged in, but I’m leaving it off because it might make you feel bad if you don’t reply. As soon as you connect to Facebook, it is displayed as active, so your friends can know that you are online in real time. To prevent this, some settings are required. Today we will take a look at how to set it up.

Whether or not activity status is displayed
It is a function that informs you that you are active by setting the activity status, but it is often unnecessary. This is because there is no need to expose that you are connected when you do not need to inform that you are connected. It’s like I’m notified of my activity because the time pops up to see if I’m logged in to Facebook. Click on my picture at the top of the screen to see if the activity status is applied.
