I wouldn’t say I felt better.

Which is why I found it so comparable to quitting smoking.

A smoker doesn’t feel “better” after quitting smoking. Even over a decade after having quit I bet if I smoked a cigarette right now I would feel much nicer than I did right before I smoked it. However, I would notice physiological changes, like a faster heart rate, slight increase in jumpiness, getting upset sooner, etc.

Quitting FB was similar. I didn’t feel “better”, but several psycho-physiological aspects of my body just went down a notch.
