I have been addicted to ig. Still can be if I let myself. Reddit can also get me hard. Whatsapp groups I actually love because there's nothing to scroll. Just people lmk about an event and I can interact with them like a human, and I can go to the event. I get to know about things and I don't have to interact with meaningless content alongside it. I love it. What exactly is wrong with Whatsapp groups other than that it's owned by Meta? I also have some Telegram groups.


I uninstalled Reddit. The noise:signal ratio was getting too small to make the effort worth it. This one I don't actually blame on the social media company, though Reddit are busy enshittifying it. Though I don't really understand why or how HN promotes good conversations and Reddit promotes trolling and ignorance. It can't just be Dang ;)


Yeah I uninstall it and then I reinstall it every now and then for a bit. HN is infinitely better though limited in scope
