Same, I started only posting stories unless it was a fire pic but I looked at my app usage in my settings section and my IG percentage was 93% and I was like nahhhhhh this is crazy... found myself wasting a lot of time on IG instead of doing something more productive and then be mad at myself that I ain?t get shit done smfh

I just got back on IG this year. I don't really use twitter much anymore, I just pop in for some random ish and leave. Only using facebook until school starts. Snap is dying on my end.

I have been on one since about May! I feel like my mind is more "free" and "positive" since it! I don't know if I will go back. Living in the moment is too FUN!

I think you have to detox from anything that takes up too much time or can be too toxic.

Especially with social media.

There was a point where I didn't really use mine for nearly 6 months. Then I kinda popped back on.

I think its needed, even if its for a day or so at a time just to focus and unwind etc

With Insta, I?m a constant browser but not an active poster. I?m kinda just perched for the MESS and kis.

This summer, I?ve been very active though. But once the semester begins, I?ll likely be the fuck MISSING again. But also, I might not... I kinda like Instastory. Sdddd

Everything else, I?m not really active. I?ll update my Facebook pic every 6 months or so. Perch on Twitter to drag Mel when he gets outta hand. And Snap is DEAD.

I do it like twice a year and everyone usually thinks I'm dead and starts calling me xxccccxxxx. But I love it even though you may not be addicted it's good to just break away and live life how it used to be. Remembering birthdays, having to interact with ppl using ur voice, etc. and there is so much negativity on social media all that bad energy ain't good for you. I'm taking one for a month starting in September.

The negative energy is <<<<<

Social media used to be a lot more playful and fun but now it's just become a landfill of some sort - a place where people unload their shitty days or complain about stuff, or simply a place to be outraged and woke whenever one is bored enough.

If I see one more post about White people I'm throwing my computer out of the window.

Nah

Snapchat? Rarely use
Flopbook? Don't use
IG? Watch a few stories and log off

Twitter is the only one I use everyday and that's mostly to keep up with current events. News hits there first before it gets to Fox, CNN, etc.
