Anyone have an Instagram? What do you usually post on there?

[Anonymous]

I kind of just recently made an Instagram. I’ll probably make another one for something separate.

The one I have now is just military and workout pics & videos.
I follow similar pages and some philosophy, political, and nature pages.

[TheUniqueOne96]

I created one for a YouTube channel and the only pics I have on there are the thumbnails of my uploads, just some Sims FreePlay stuff and the DP is a picture of me doing the splits with an emoji over my face, lol.

I've never posted a picture of myself on social media, I'm not photogenic and I hate taking pictures in general.

[TheUniqueOne96]

I barely ever use it too, almost never open the app.

[ArtemisSilver]

I do not. It's kind of a platform for the glorification of vanity and I can't find a practical use for it.

[Asker]

Unfortunately, I feel like you are right.

If I’m being honest, I’ve been guilty of this myself but I also feel like I’m conscious enough of it to ensure it
never gets to extreme or unhealthy levels.

I mainly have it to follow and gain some new perspectives on military, police, and fitness stuff.

Also, education on law, tactics, etc.

[ArtemisSilver]

I've kind of done the same with Facebook, turning it into a personalized magazine by joining groups that interest me. The marketplace and messenger are the only things really keeping me there. No better place to sell junk.

I had a fake name with only artwork I did and no pics but forgot the name cause I never used it and only had three or four friends on there - they let you link your Facebook to Instagram but I thought that was too much online material.

Some Lesbian girls convinced me to start an account a couple of years ago but I didn't like it as it is designed to best work as a smart phone app and I prefer to use a computer.

I have two. One connected to my facebook (my mom follows me on that) and one in connection to kink.

[Tstrbrainer]

Care to share?

[Ninania]

@Tstrbrainer sure, it's @ninaniaxx

[Tstrbrainer]

Thanks

No I don’t have Instagram and never was on it. I ditched Facebook three years ago. Social media turned to garbage well before that.
I have a life.

[Asker]

Just because you have a social media doesn’t mean you don’t have a life.

[ArtemisSilver]

Rather than ditch FB entirely I joined a bunch of groups that interested me, and cut my friends list down to only people who I'd have a beer with.

I sell stuff on FB marketplace, so at least and use it to keep in touch and plan get togethers with family and friends.

At least it has practical uses.

I can't really figure out what instagram is for other than trying to promote yourself or a business, but in a very shallow sense.

[Asker]

@ArtemisSilver

What you’ve explained that you do on FaceBook, you can most certainly replicate on Instagram.

I do something near identical to what you use FB for, save for the selling stuff.

[ArtemisSilver]

I made about a grand refurbishing and selling of my old PC equipment of FB. It's a handy stand in for having a garage sale.

[SaoirseS]

@ArtemisSilver. The only thing I miss about FB is the neighborhood watch page and a hobby page. But they started going down the crapper as well. It has its uses, but wasn’t worth it. At least with FB marketplace you can parlay it into cash 😀

[ArtemisSilver]

Yea it's good for getting rid of baby stuff for cash as they grow past needing things too. Very handy as a parent

[Asker]

Well, you have a Snapchat I assume?

What do you do with that?

[ArtemisSilver]

Snapchat? It's for looking at boobies lol

[Asker]

My man

That neighborhood FB video reminded me of the time my landlord said the neighbor told him I was "selling hard drugs".

In reality I was a new dad who wasn't getting any sleep and ordering a lot of McDonald's...

Hard drugs indeed...

[just_a_potato]

I have one but I don't use it the way I used to when I was younger. It's mostly just pictures of me doing mundane things or going out on trips. My old friends and family follow my account so yeah.

[SunnyCaliGirl]

I have two Instagrams, one is peroneal and the other account I post my art

[Smashingdoozy]

I have one with no posts deleted everything but just use it to scroll sometimes

[Dinklex3]

Hmm.
Made mine last year.
I post any type of mini adventure I go on.

[Jamie05rhs]

I have Instagram but I don't use it.

You have great pictures, though, bro.

[Jltakk]

I barely go on social media. I don't care to share my life with others tbh. I think I just have some italo disco clips or something.

[OlderAndWiser]

I do not have an IG account.

[whereismyjohnny]

I have it, but I don’t post anything 😂

[Prettygurl12]

My dog 😂

[Vendela]

I do, but I don't use it often.

[TrillXHippy]

I don’t post anything on there

[NathanDavis]

I don't do socials

[Asker]

Why not?

[NathanDavis]

just zero interest on it

don't need them either

[Asker]

Well, I doubt most people on social media actually need it.

I think it’s just more of a personal decision. A lot of people, myself included mainly have social media to follow other people.

In this case it’s mainly military and police stuff to learn more about law, tactics, etc.

It’s stuff that interest me.

[NathanDavis]

a few people I know, they do have businesses... and their particular business field does need social networks, including Instagram... I have a business as well, but I do not need social networks for it, that's what I mean for me not being a need

a lot other people I know also need socials, to stay in touch with friends and family that for some reason do not like to be in touch through regular texting on the phone or calls... on this, I do not have the need either, most of my friends and close friends are not like this, and they do not have much socials either... so we can communicate alright the regular way and in person, no need for socials

so, I do not need it... as for following people, I have no interest on that... whether is celebrities, strangers or people I actually know like friends or family, I don't really need to see pics of everything they do on the daily basis

you mention learning... learning is also something else I can much more efficiently by other means, have done it before Instagram, have been doing it since Instagram, will be able to learn about different stuff even when/if Instagram is gone
