The last two years I've had times were I went "Social media" free and did nothing on my social media accounts for 30 days at a time. Last time I did it (about a year ago), I got lots of retweets on Twitter and tons of people asking about it on FB. This year, when I announced what I was doing, nobody said anything on FB. I asked a few people if they saw my post and their response? "Um yeah, my newsfeed is so full, when did you send it?" "About a day ago." "Yeah, I probably didn't see it." Not only has social media completely bogged down people's lives, they can't even sort through their own newsfeeds to get stuff which might actually be important. For me, it was the last straw. As an occasional FB user, I finally realized if I wasn't posting every 5 minutes, the likelihood someone saw my post and could or would respond to it was almost zero. Two weeks ago, I deleted my FB account and haven't missed a thing since.
