I’m not the poster, but I’m between 16-19 and seeing the same thing over last 2 years I’ve been almost completely out of social media, - 0 minutes of facebook - 0 minutes of Instagram - 0 minutes of Twitter - 20 minutes of Telegram per day to catchup on messages - 10 minutes of Matrix A few years back the aggregate was easily 10-12 hrs per day (rest were spent watching movies and writing code) . Nowadays my brain automatically will close the sites if I spend more then 2 minutes on them. But it’s not just social media, I lost my appetite for movies, tv shows too. Most of this purge was unintentional , however now that it’s done. I’m glad. Other than that I come on HN once or twice a day to have fun and comment and read stuff. I wouldn’t say HN is more saner then other social media, most of the peers I engaged with in the more popular social media apps were equally as nice, amicable and fun to talk with. But these days I mostly spend my days reading story books, blogs, write code, make drinks and cook food, and solve fun puzzles that I design. Who knows, maybe it’ll all change to something else in 2 years again. I hope you have a lovely day !
