I use Snapchat and LinkedIn (and I’m still not sure exactly why).

Stopped using Facebook, twitter and Reddit completely.

My life got so much better when I ditched Facebook, I was stuck in a daily routine of just scrolling through ads and stupid posts on ridiculous groups, and though I felt it made me in a bad mood constantly, I just continued.

It was such a relief to leave it for good.

Leaving Reddit was a lot harder, since I actually enjoyed many of the subs, but Lemmy is growing fast and it’s already feeling quite good scrolling through my front page.
