I'm rethinking my approach to using social media and use of the Internet itself with all the changes going on in the world and out here in cyberspace.
I left Twitter/X a few months ago thanks to Elon Musk turning it into a shit pile.
I barely use Instagram.
I'm not and have never been on Tiktok. I never will.
I'm not on Mastadon or whatever.
I did open an account on Blue Sky, but it really isn't working to well for me to connect and/or interact with others.
Over a year ago, I got onto Threads. I didn't use it for most of the year. Then after leaving Twitter, I started using it more. I've met a few new online friends, but 97% of the folks on here I do not know and I have conversations for a moment and then poof, they are over. I've had some negative experiences there with some people. I don't know how much longer I can stay on there.
Which leads me to Facebook...
I've been on Facebook for almost 20 years. I was originally on there to connect with family and friends. Most have gone silent. It is mostly ads and groups now. The only reasons I've been on there was to keep in contact with my mother to interact and to promote my comic book projects.
Which leads me here...
I'm thinking about leaving social media all together at the end of February and just making this website and blog my only online footprint out there for others to follow me or connect.
Anyone here reading this? If so, give me a shout out!
