Quitting facebook, instagram, twitter and all kinds of social media has been the best decision so far. I will definitely not install social media apps like tiktok, snapchat or anything similar and the only one i keep is linkedin, which while is becoming a little bit like facebook it is still a bit relevant on job searching. Personally i have found myself all these weeks without them; i realized who my real friends are (the ones who can drop me a call to hang out, not the ones who will always message me in messenger or viber like i am a bot on the other side), i have more desire to start new hobbies, read, play board games and meet new actual people.
I am not the most social person ever, but it makes me sad how people and society have changed to the worst due to social media. I am seeing older people who found facebook in their 70s talking to and sharing gifs and silly emojis with their friends through messenger instead of calling or seeing each other. Same for all people of younger or similar age i have met; all the communication goes through social media even for the most complicated matters, like actual relationships, family discussions, serious talk etc. and even if you manage to convince them on an actual physical hangout, you have to go through the torture of multiple photos, posting, chatting, stories and whatever nonsense these social media platforms are promoting. Where is the actual fun of going out for a drink, to talk, to meet other people, to go to a concert or even travel anymore?
