How I use youtube so it's not "social media": I got a comment from someone who wants to post content on youtube but doesn't want to consume it. I will post my advice here in case other people want to use it. 1. Use a chrome extension called UnTrap. It's on desktop for free but paid in the app store. It lets you filter youtube. 2. Use UnTrap to filter out shorts, recommended videos, 'up next', the comment section etc. You can remove pretty much everything. 3. (optional) Desaturate all thumbnails by 50%, you'll notice how bright and eye catching they are when this feature is turned off. 4. Post your content, do what you need to do to run/manage your channel. Or just enjoy curated youtube. Hopefully this helps fellow creators or people trying to limit their screen time! I should've addressed this in the video, but I didn't think about it. Live and learn :)

Wow, thank you so much for this recommendation! I already know that this is going to save me so much time. I can't see an option to desaturate thumbnails, though - is this only available on the Pro version? :)
@janieisbored
@janieisbored 8 ай бұрын
It should be available in the free version as well. In the drop down menu, select video item, under the thumbnail section, there is a setting called shade of gray for thumbnails, you should be able to set it from there

As someone who just turned 20 -- I think this video was just the push I needed to go full send and Uninstall social media too. I've been uninstalling and reinstalling them on and off for nearly a year now-- because after a few days I lose momentum and always cave. but... you're right. You're right and I owe myself that chance to be present and observant in my own life. To make memories and to just. Live. Idk I don't usually comment but thank you

All of this resonates with me. I also wasted my 20s on social media and being about to turn 30 in a few months im feeling a major shift and I’m unplugged from most social media. The media I’m using I’m trying to use in a mindful and meaningful way. I only have instagram for posting about what I’m reading and what my thoughts are on the books I’m reading. I deleted my other instagram accounts. I’m deleting Facebook. I’m unsubscribing from KZbin channels that dont bring value into my life or teach me something. I’m just seeing social media in a whole new light lately.

"I don't care." My experience exactly. I don't care if my friends spam the latest memes to me over IG, or if that girl I'm pining for doesn't return my texts (oh well). I don't care if a troll decides to talk crap about my videos, or if anyone even watches them. Heck, I don't even care if a work colleague hates my guts. I just... don't. There are few things in life I care much for, and the opinions of others is not one of them. Quitting social media a few months ago made me realise that, because nothing clarifies your thought processes as much as seeing an empty notification bar. Admittedly, it is a little sad. But I would rather have it this way than live a delusional, self-obsessed life.

I am so indentified with your speak. I begun using Social Media in 1997 with mIRC and have used almost every new platform since then. After 27 years, I quit social media: now I just watch KZbin (btw: for me it isn't social media, I think it is more like an audiovisual difusion channel) and stopped fooling myself thinking somebody is really interested in my thoughts or life. I always say goodbye before quitting a platform, and almost every reply says "oh, I want to do the same but I can't"... Well, you can do it, and trust me: noone is gonna miss you. And if someone does miss you, social media will make them forget you. Oh, and by the way: your spanish is just fine!!! Sigue así!! saludos desde Santiago, Chile, Sudamérica!

Great video. Gave it up a few years ago too. ‘If you don’t pay for the product, you are the product’. You hit the nail on the head about allowed yourself to be bored. Kids are constantly occupied these days and adults are too. My moments of greatest inspiration have come when I’m bored or at a loose end. If you fill that time with a phone, it’ll never happen.

cute video! i also don't have any social media except for youtube (which is already time consuming). I just stopped using youtube shorts and found a way to block them. I still spend more time than i wish here, but it's nice to at least have my attention focused on something that lasts more than 30 seconds. and honestly watching sims 4 builds and cute videos is already better than mindless scrolling instagram or watching who's getting cancelled on twitter. All my social media had 2 factor authentication and when my phone was robbed i realized it's actually kind of nice not to see anything on the internet. I wasn't able to use them on my computer either so after day 2 I was already convinced it was much better this way

@@janieisbored this is the thing, I’ve always complained to my friends saying that I wish apps just allowed us to disable this stuff. Instead, people are being pushed to remove entire apps. If I’m Instagram I was able to disable stories, reels, and the explore page, I would potentially keep it. Big emphasis on potentially. But instead, all of that just makes me feel more disconnected if anything. I’ve managed to uphold good self discipline so far of not watching reels on KZbin but JHEEZ sometimes one’s just on my screen. So I have to remove from watch history and click not interested in all of them recommended in the hope they will disappear more. There’s definitely more of a sense of community on here, and more of a hopeful algorithm !sometimes! For example your lovely video being in my recommended. Thanks again Janie. You take care xxx

asides from youtube and webtoon and some other reading apps, i've actually been off and uninterested in social media 🙀 so i never got into tiktok since i found it uncomfortable. i had a few social media apps that were absolutely killing me in the past. i'd spend 10 literal hours on that single app. which is wild. i used to be a maniac on instagram too, but i found out that after scrolling mindlessly, i'd feel guiltier and it makes me blame myself. so i limit myself to 20 minutes per day and on most days i don't open it at all! yes, my colleagues are still dragging me around and saying "let's do this one trend!" or "let's film [tiktok]!" and i'd genuinely have no idea what it's about and i'm seriously embarrassed, but that's okay? i think that's okay. people would borrow my phone and literally ask me "you have nothing on your phone. what the hell do you do all day?" but that's okay too. i'd just feel incredibly awkward but laugh it off with a joke.

This is the first video of you I saw, but I'm also commenting on it since it is the most recent one. I want to say/write so many things but I'll try to focus on the most important points: 1. I think it's wonderful and awful at the same time how many (young) peoople are trying to escape social media and smart phones but realize it is not that easy in our day and age. I myself struggle with this and find myself getting nostalgic to the point where I feel like I can't be content in this (western/globalized) age. I know the last centuries weren't better or happier, it's just a feeling. 2. For the longest time I tried to find people who were exactly like me in different aspects. I'm in the process of realizing and understanding that we are all unique, but what we share is connection. I feel like I connect to to you or at least to your content since you're my age, think/talk about a lot of the things I think about and just create beautiful video essays. I really look forward to your future videos. Well, I hope my points come across. (Feels good to leave a comment I thought about for more than 10 seconds. I think I'm starting to understand slow living on the internet...)

I feel like a few people are more honest on social media than people I know in real life. I try to call someone and their busy with this that & the other. I pull up TikTok and a person I like shares what's been bothering them for 10 whole minutes. I don't know, sometimes I just have to wait until someone does answer when it's "just me".✌🏻Because most Tiktokers don't wanna respond. They have real friends too.

That's an interesting pov, I'm sure there's lots of people who use social media to just vent. There's also the anonymity of the internet so I think people are more comfortable sharing their honest thoughts knowing a bunch of people they don't actually know irl will watch it. There's also an amount of people who can be fake too. Thanks for the comment!

The thing is I want to delete all these messages in Discord, Instagram and I think KZbin and Tiktok, I regret oversharing and how I typed and what I wrote every single day, I have online close friends in discord and I don't know if I can quit the server they mean a lot to me, but at the same time I want to focus on my life to get the things that I want and live in non-fiction. I don't know what to it's been 16 years and now I'm 18 I feel like I wasted my life and forgot completely about my childhood's memories.

You don't have to quit completely if it means a lot to you. I'm sure there's a balance you can find that will let you focus on your life and still keep contact with your friends. Starting out with time limits on apps helped me a lot in the beginning. Do what you think is best.

its harder to delete soc med esp messenger or whatsapp because of work and also since working abroad away from family and friends,its the only way to communicate with them...Self control basically is the only thing i can think of to avoid wasting time in soc med...

If it's what you need to communicate with those close to you, then keep it. I just decided to get rid of it because it didn't bring me happiness. Good on you for having self control, it was really hard for me to keep that up
