Instagram waste of time

Nop, its good to be in touch with my friends , and too see sometimes some cool stuff

Maybe because pictures dont trigger me much and i dont pmo on pic for ages

 

Never got into it *bless up*, I lost touch with a good amount of friends, but I gave most of them my number, those that really did enjoy my company keep in touch and our brotherhood couldn't be stronger at this point.

Cheers!

 

I used to have one about a year or two. I used to follow my ambitions...drawing, fitness, music, and other stuff but the algorithm became distorted over time that once I just open explore page and tapped on a girl picture the whole explore page went berserk with ladies profiles. It got too triggering for me and soon I realised it is a PSub for me and i got rid of it.
Because i never really used it to communicate with friends and family and 2, the things I followed are already available in youtube so i did away with it. Never regretted nothing.

 

I only use insta for nofap memes and motivation , not following any any friends and I hate instagram reels and instagram search page , it is the cause of many relapses.

 

never used it

 

No, but I deleted snapchat - fuck that shit. I might delete insta one day though because all these bullshit politically correct and exaggerated social issue posts from my peers are driving me fucking insane.

 

communication, dating, relaxation..

 

Yes I deleted it in 2017 and haven't installed it again, much better. I already communicate via whatsapp, no need for instagram.

 

I wish I knew when I deleted instagram.

 

Deleted all my socials (I still have Pinterest). They are ridicolous and toxic. I gived a chance to Reddit some months ago but is the same thing of other socials full of larping peoples, deleted. Everyone has his little bubble and when bubbles get in contrast people start to be toxic and larp and the risk of feeling sad and depressed is high. And what i learned with socials? It's a hive mind with peoples showing their fake happy life. People show their body, share their private life for some likes. Ego machine.

 

That sounds like a good choice for you.

Personally, I use Instagram and Facebook to keep in touch a few friends there. I do not spend any time on them for other reasons. And I have never seen or search for sexual content on them. So, no reason for me to delete them. No risks.

 

I didn't post a picture since 2016, and even that one, was done after have the account for like a year because I deleted my old pictures of 2014-2015 because they were embarassing to me as I grew older.

So, I was just checking out my friend's posts. A lot of their posts are just showing off where they go and what they eat, I was thinking like, I genuinly don't care what someone eats, why do people have to show everything they do? And realizing I watch it all.

Other than that, I would see so many basically nude girls, and I kept following them to stay up to date on their content. That's not positive either.

But the last straw was when I couldn't stop seeing my ex on instagram even after unfollowing her so I decided the only way to forget her is to completely erase instagram from my life. It helped a lot.

I have no interest in the application. Anyone wants to talk to me? Call my number or send a message on whatsapp, easy as that. On whatsapp you can send videos and pictures or send files if required. Without seeing useless stories on instagram or many nude girls.

I am still addicted to youtube though, I can't ignore that. But the content I see is much better here, so it's not as bad of an addiction, and before, I was using both, so better one than both

 

I mainly use it for entertainment purposes, I have so much free time (vacation) so I watch different youtubers. Youtube was also helpful in giving me resources that I used during exams. And it is also helpful to me to find general stuff I need (editing software downloads, game crash solutions, video game tips, etc)

 

Id delete mine yet that's the only way my friend(s) want to communicate. I deleted my Facebook account, my Parler, my Telegram, and Twitter. I created a New Twitter since my previous one was surrounded with so much Negativity and I have a YouTube. And that's about it. Social Media isn't bad for you it depends which platform followed by who you're surrounded by. That's what determined my actions.

 

Social Media in general is very toxic and negative. I deleted most of my social media accounts including Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, and Instagram. The only social media I use is YouTube because I find it to be more positive than negative. If you go on YouTube, avoid reading the comments, they are very toxic and can cause one to relapse when someone is spamming porn pics on their account.

 

I will always be proud of myself for not joining Instagram, Facebook (I made an account just to connect it to a game, never used it), Tik-Tok.

My friends were constantly asking me to join IG, I am glad that they gave up.


I did use Pinterest for Anime but, after I joined NoFap I deleted it too.
