BTW, If you don't like the new stuff, but not resorting to such hateful antics, like calling people "Woke" or "Shill", then I'm not talking about you, just so you know.

I quit social media when I realise every time I posted something, I was hoping for likes, comparing the number of likes with my friends. I found myself going to places that I don’t like just to take pictures to put online; I found myself missing out on the actual experience and enjoying the scenery just to get a perfect picture/video. I found myself comparing my life with all the other friends in my life, until I’m left with feeling embarrassed, ashamed, and jealous every time I went on scrolling. When I quit checking my social media, I realised that I was missing out. I shouldn’t live for anyone’s ‘like’ and approval. It will either destroy people’s self esteem or create a fake bubble of confidence, which when it pops it will hurt and cause destruction even more. I’m glad I’ve set myself free in that sense

My real disillusionment with social media began when I began meeting the people I see on social media a little more often in real life and realized that nearly everything I knew or had assumed about them by looking at their profiles was a lie. Those people had far less knowledge, had done far less in life, and travelled to fewer places than I thought. One of my social media "friends", as it turned out, was posting literally every picture of herself after a ton of editing and didn't even look like I had imagined.

I quit Facebook back in 2011 when I was 16. Couldn't do it. I only did it because everyone else was doing it but it ate me alive. I got depressed, obsessed with my image, comparing myself to other girls and their boyfriends, cyber bullying and fighting there it was hell. All I have is youtube. Then at 26 years of age I said to myself one day let me go back just to see if I miss it. Couldn't last 24 hrs.

I went on a vacation about three years ago with my friends and we literally spent the entire time taking “THE PREFECT” Instagram pictures. We were surrounded by historical details, and many fun things to do, but we stupidly decided to bother strangers to take pictures of us when we wasn’t taking pictures of ourselves. When I quite social media, I had the opportunity to visit the same landmark with my sisters. I realized how much I missed during my first time there. It was a different experience. I learned sooooo much more, interacted with people from different cultures, and had FUN. We took a few meaningful pictures, but most of our time were spent exploring.

Thank you to all of you that feel the same way and I'm actually a follower of Christ and what I've been noticing about Christian group and Christian Post and things like that that have to do with the Bible and other topics besides the Bible are being Censored so bad that it's not worth the time or effort to be on there anymore. Take your data and sell it and turn right around and make you work to get noticed or liked by what you post and even make you pay to play as Facebook calls it. 1. Friend requests have decreased from 2017 2. Likes have decreased from 2020 3. Post content becomes invisible because of the Algorithims. Depending on what is posted there is a good likelihood your content will be completely invisible so others won't see it this is the sad reality now.

Quitting Social Media is not losing confidence, it's realizing that there are more valuable ways you can spend your time. Quitting Social Media is not making excuses, it's learning to be more productive, efficient and effective. Quitting Social Media letting go of things (or people) that are sucking the life out of you so you can do more things that will bring you strength and peace.
