At the park-et (park market) with my kid and husband. January 22, 2025.

Posting less on social media and more on my own site.

January 22, 2025 by Vanessa Young in The Life

After like 10 or 11 years of being on Twitter, I finally weaned myself off of it. I haven’t gone on the app in months, stopped actively using it during the election.

Now, it’s time for Meta to face the same fate. That’s a trickier one, because of how embedded the ecosystem is in the entire internet. Similar to Amazon and their web services.

I barely use Facebook anymore and I’m going to work on posting less on Instagram. I barely post on the grid as it is, but now it’s time to take the same approach to stories.

I really wish my formerly favorite social media apps weren’t run by bootlicking fascists and assholes, but here we are. This is my own personal decision and I feel good about it.

Instead of doom scrolling, I will simply go outside.
