Since Reddit is quite big I went for a search on it about topics related to how I feel at the moment/ this period in my life. I am a young adult and live in West Europe. During the past five years or so I've been going on and off in my mind about deleting some of my social media.
I once created Facebook almost 10 years ago. To a lot of people, including myself, it was considered a mainstream platform to post everything about your life and to let your digital friends know what's going on in your life and ofcourse to check on others about their lives.
Over those years my interest in social media and Facebook in particular have become lesser and lesser. At the same time I became more aware about how you are selling your privacy by posting online. Also I didn't want to be like this anymore. Always grabbing my phone to look at Facebook, while actually hating it, but still trying to see what is going on in some people's lives, whom I actually couldn't care about, just to notice that ofcourse their lives are going perfect. I was so sick and tired of this.
So as of today I am (trying) to quit Facebook. I was not using it that much anyways lately so what will it matter. I'm hoping to become more productive and life a happier life by knowing less about what is going on in x persons life.
