I grew up with social media but at the start of the year I quit all of it and deleted my accounts. AI slop and obvious bots everywhere was the tipping point.

I should have done it long before, quitting has been so massively beneficial and I don’t feel I’m missing anything. All real social interaction online these days is in messaging apps. Social media is just a feed of endless slop designed to put you in a zombie like state of scrolling.
