Facebook let's EU users without a Facebook account

I haven't deletes my Facebook account yet because I need the messenger functionality. But I haven't used or accepted Facebook terms from November about targeted ads or paid subscription.

Now though, I don't need the Facebook account any more. Here are some long screen dumpsnof further information

I was also verybpleased to find an option in Facebook thatbleta you transference pictures fr your accounts to drop box (or other cloud storage services)

Are you able to keep existing conversations if you choose the second option? (Create new messenger account sounds like you'll have to re-add all your contacts and group messages)

Edit : nevermind I have my answer, too bad they don't offer a way to transfer conversations, it would be easier for everyone to abandon their Facebook account :

I kind of find this to be a good thing. Clean up in the conversations and restart the good ones. I don't mind losing chat history. It was practically not even searchable anywaybso nonuse for it as I see it
