Do you use social media like Facebook and Instagram?

[Sommar 1,289]

I use Instagram occasionally, but I am thinking of deleting it and I stopped using Facebook a long time ago because of drama. So do you guys use social media? What is your opinion about FB, Insta, etc?

[CandyStrike 603]

Aside from looking at twitter from time to time I don't use social media.  I don't do facebook because I don't trust them at all.

[MechanicalDoom 300]

I've personally never seen drama or anything like that. I use Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, and Twitter. My Twitter and Tumblr are anonymous. I have 2 Instagram accounts: one for IRL stuff and one for MLP. I feel like using FB and Instagram sort of keeps me connected with the world and what not. No one talks to me outside of school.

I mainly use Instagram and Tumblr for promotion, showcases and art and Facebook.. well.. because I like it.

I use Twitter regularly and, regrettably, Tumblr... I enjoy Twitter, but Tumblr is a bit of a hassle, FB's never peaked my interest, and I hate taking pictures of myself so Instagram's out.

[Fallen Valkyrie 525]

Well i remember onces making Instagram but i got bord relly quick,my experience wit Twitter is was same like wit Insagram.But facebook is fun, but like Candy Strike sad dont trust annyone but is good to make you laugh from time to time and keep contact about school

[ConcorDisparate 385]

I don't use any social media. I think I won't ever use them, maybe Twitter if I need it for some reason, but that's all.

I understand why people use it, though I won't use it though, skype and forums are enough for me.

[glitterbomb 162]

I can't stand facebook personally, but I love instagram

[TenorSounds 832]

I mostly just stick to Facebook. I don't use it for all that much, but I am a member of specific groups (my group of friends' gaming group, for instance) that makes sharing information/news/etc. very convenient. For that, it's invaluable.

I'm also very stringent with my friends-list, and am quick to de-friend someone if they just "vaguebook" or post conspiracy theories all day.

[Jora 164]

i'm on facebook i don't use it to much but yeah..

[PoisonClaw 8,164]

I use Tumblr to track blogs, but besides that I've never cared about sites like Facebook or Twitter. My siblings pretty much bullied me into making a Facebook page nearly a decade ago, and there it has sat unused since (Thought I might of deleted it, I can't remember.)

[Not_active 732]

Snapchat, instagram, facebook, kik...and possibly a few more that I can't remember 

[The Shyest One 808]

I use a few like Instagram and Tumblr, both of which I've become inactive in. I also go on Facebook every once in a while, just to see what everyone else is doing. Does Pinterest count?

[n0body555 334]

I have a Facebook, I sometimes use it.

 

I use Twitter a lot more.

[~Chaos~ 3,967]

I have coounts for both, years ago I used to go on Facebook all the time but not anymore, and Instagram I look at others pictures mostly.

[CC_Maud_Pie 6,431]

I don't have an opinion on Instagram. Facebook, well, I used to have an account not long ago but then I got fed up with it because I felt less private. Now I deactivated my account.

 

In other words, for me, Facebook is:

[SparklingSquirrels 21,309]

I only use Facebook, but my Facebook account doesn't use my real name. I don't have an instagram/twitter/etc.

[Discordian 6,015]

Used to but when you realize that places like Facebook are just the dumbasses guide to forums then you kinda go with a forum for the full social experience.

 

If I need to contact someone I'll send them an email or call them. Don't need a special place for that.

[Thuja 3,658]

I use Facebook, only to keep in touch with certain people because I rarely use my email anymore.

[KatonRyu 1,033]

I have a Facebook so I can contact people I don't have on Skype/Whatsapp. I don't post anything, however, and with the new rule that allows that sell all your info I untagged myself from every picture and put my birthday and gender on different settings.

 

I also have a Twitter, which I mainly use to check fencing-related business, although I tend not to look at it at all.

 

Instagram means nothing to me but idiots taking pictures of their lunch. (No offense to anyone who does this, although I am seriously curious why you'd do it.)

[AFK 89]

No. I don't have account on nor interest in any social media sites.

[BayoUni2847 528]

The only reason I have Facebook is to keep in contact with some of my friends. Other than that I hardly use it.
 

I also have a Twitter but I never use it.

 

I do not have an Instagram nor do I want one.

[VitalSpark 1,830]

 

 

No. I don't have account on nor interest in any social media sites.

 

What he/she said.

 

I disagree with the premise of these sites, which is to make an account on their website into your primary online point of contact. Given that I would have no contract with them, and could not hold them to any particular level of service, relying on them for an online presence seems risky. If Facebook shut up shop tomorrow, many people would lose large chunks of their communication history, photos, etc. And they'd have no legal recourse against the company.

 

I prefer to keep my data on computers that I own or at least rent.

[DormantAccount 308]

I gave up on most of it years ago. I never used it and most of the "friends" I had on there I would barely rate as acquaintances.

 

I had a myspace and facebook. I deleted Myspace not too terribly long after I got it. Facebook I kept, but I never used it so I killed it probably 4 or 5 years ago.

 

I now have a twitter that I use to announce my uploads on, follow a few YouTubers I like, and comment on things here and there. 

 

I've never had an instagram.

[Alan Crytex 165]

I use both of them to promote my content on my channel and stuff, also of course, facebook, for contacting my friends and such...
