I think when I made the decision to stop using Facebook was when I created a new account and realized how empty the actual value proposition was when you were starting fresh. I then realized that people on facebook I actually would've never met or even hang out or even actively talk or like. People that matter are people that have my phone number and skype and can meet me directly. After this epiphany, I deleted my facebook, I no longer saw any value in having a few hundred "friends" on a website that intrinsically offers no value without the underlying participants, whom I valued to be close to zero, as they were not within reach in real life. I found skype offered all the tools I needed. I downloaded whatsapp only to be hit with the same feeling I got from Facebook, these were merely tools acting as social buffering mechanism for digital interaction but SMS already serves this purpose well and voice conversation or meeting in person solves a far better value. Twitter, I'm also thinking of retiring. Instagram? Selfies? Things don't change and that is human relationships, being on any of these platforms is a self fulfilling prophecies.
