Thoughts 20/4/24

How do you use social media?

I was on SM pretty much from the start. But more often than not I signed out and had a month or two away every now and then as I just didn’t need it.

I was a child of the 70’s and if someone wanted to call me an arse or show me a picture of their dinner they’d have had to walk a few miles or so to do it.

Facebook was a joke, that was ditched years ago.

Instagram was taken over by talentless nobodies calling themselves “influencers” I was that impressed that I ditched that too.

I go on Twitter or X or whatever they call it now, every once in a while but it’s quite a horrible experience. I use it to follow a few music sites, or technical sites but you can’t help but notice the utter hate and disrespect people have for each other on there. It really is an utter cesspool of depravity and to be honest I just don’t need or want that in my life.

I use WordPress as a blog presence and I quite like that.

So no, I’m not a great fan of SM, my choice, you may love it and good on you, whatever floats your boat I say.

I guess I’m probably not that social. Close the door on the way out please 😂

Have a great day. Stay safe.
