    I’ve been off social media and primarily use UA-cam to keep up with current events and have to say there is absolutely nothing missing in my life not being on social media, so much useless information was taking up my thoughts and time, life is so much better in person.

      YT is social media. It is different, and you can use it as media consuming instrument only, but apparantly you use it as social media as you comment. A little annonymous, that username absolutely reveils nothing, but you use it for conversation.

      You are here. Commenting. Having an account. Still on it! The beauty of UA-cam is that it is both social and broadcasting. If you don't feel like using it as SM, you can only watch content. But you can use it as social media if you like, and apparantly you do use it as SM.

      How healthy is the corporate media spewing propaganda for people? We are in the beginning of a civil war and the corporate media keep lying. The 6 RW corporations who bought up the media in the early 2000's didn't do so to inform Americans, they are successful tipping the scale to keep Republicans in office to avoid taxes and regulations. The young lady seemed honest but the 1st girl lies all the time.

    I feel like they avoided the obvious bc of political reasons but we still use TikTok 😅.. it’s the algorithm. Instagram has a TERRIBLE algorithm and as discussed here it shows us a bunch of influencers, there is almost no chance for new creators to get seen without paying for an ad, which appears somewhat desperate and we are tired of the constant flow of sponsored content- on top of that, they seemingly have NO IDEA what users want to see on their feed, it appears completely random, has nothing to do with your interests, you never actually see your friends or the people you follow and they make it a secret mission to find out who follows you back.
    TikTok is literally the opposite- plus it’s low pressure. Instagram is stressful AF. Employers view it, everything is supposed to be all aesthetic and curated. You can literally roll out of bed, start singing a song about a dream you had and engage with a millions of people, even if you have like 10 follower… Instagram could never. 💅🏾🤷🏾‍♀️

Millennials and Gen Z don't watch propaganda from the corporate media and they are now the best informed and biggest voting block in America.
