I just deleted Facebook. All my photos are gone forever, according to them.

It felt like Snapchat except the timer was set to ten years.

?? You can't delete your Facebook account, only deactivate it. And all friends, posts and pics are saved for when you return. If I am wrong I would love to know how.

You can, and you can also download all of your content before doing so.

Actually, you can; I just did it two days ago. Take a look at this:
