I just deleted my first public Instagram account from 2018 that had all my friends from high school. I'm kinda sad but it had to be done. All I'm left is one account, which is private and strictly for family only. I haven't used Instagram ever since high school bc i cut everyone off 😭 and my social paranoia hasn't recovered yet...😅 don't even know if that's even a thing lmaoo. anyways, i used to use that app like crazyy and I had so many memories with friends offline and online. It was only the last few years that I started noticing a shift in the digital space in general, and looking at it now I just can't handle it anymore. my only "social" apps that I use now are repov, youtube, spacehey, discord, and xhs (rednote). and I don't imagine myself ever looking back anytime soon. the only problem I will face is interacting with people my age bc everyone has Instagram now, and like promoting jobs/businesses. 😞
