Other people can do polls too, no worries if not

Man I miss poke

A lot of the problems I have with social media are how these things are used in conjunction with each other.

Posting a photo: fine
Ability to like/react to a photo: bad IMO

Yes, you could add ability to filter images to that negatives list too

I actually can’t really think of any point to social media anymore, think everything’s been said or aspired to now.

unless you voted ‘Bad Thing’ for ‘Being able to include polls which people can vote in’

i do love to be Social when i am consuming my Media

Only things worth anything are Discord and forums now. Twitter is okay but I find it very easy to get sucked into whatever dumb shit is going on. Also it’s good on those platforms there isn’t a one to one correlation between your identity and your profile.

I think Instagram is actually the worst platform. When I deleted the app and stopped regularly spending time on it it improved my head so much. It’s obviously been commented on as nauseam but comparing your life to someone else’s highlights is a sure fire way to drive yourself insane
