like, I basically don’t use it (aside from YouTube if you count that). I genuinely feel so much better, and my life materially did not improve in any way (sad), but I still feel better.

I think tranistan is cool and all, and I want the site to be active, but I feel so much better when I’m not super active.

    Yeah, same. My life is almost as good as it can possibly be ever since I deleted all social media. I wouldn’t consider youtube to be one, but I can’t use it without extension that disables shorts - short form content slop is evil.

    It’s a poison that keeps reminding you to hate yourself

    I’m starting to think it probably not a good idea to look here

      Yeah, I wouldn’t say it’s as bad as like Instagram or something, but it is basically reddit (in the way that it functions).

      I’m not one of those “never ever use social media” people, but it’s about how you use it that makes it super unhealthy (and unhealthy use is the way social media is designed to be used so you gotta be careful).
