Some opt out of using popular social media apps. A user wondered, “What do you think of someone without social media?” Top responses follow.

WISE CHOICE

“Made a wise choice. More productive. Not just watching random YouTube videos.”

MYSTERIOUS

“What used to be normal is now ‘mysterious.'”

NO BIG DEAL

“No big deal. They prefer socializing in real life, and I’m okay with that.”

IT TAKES MORE EFFORT

"Be engaged in conversation and get to know people beyond social media. It requires effort. Ignore the need for likes and thumbs up for validation as humans."

UNNATURALLY HEALTHY

“They’re unnaturally healthy. Huge congrats to them!”

COOLEST PERSON

“They are usually the coolest people in the room.”

THEY ARE MORE RELAXED AND CHILLED OUT

“Most of the time, they’re the most relaxed and chilled-out person as they have no stress and don’t care what you think.”

IT IS RUINING THE WORLD

"I lack social media. It damages the world prioritizing monetized misinformation that fits our narratives. It profits from fear and anger."

SMART PEOPLE

"Smart are those who never joined social media. I wish I could go back and leave no digital footprint. I yearn for the day when going offline becomes cool. We should return to real life community engagements."

ATTRACTIVE

CAN’T BLAME THEM

“I can’t blame them. They are avoiding things that can cause them depression.”

FAMILY THINKS IT IS WEIRD

"I'm only on internet forums, quitting other social media. It ended constant comparison, need for validation, and snooping on strangers. My happiest decision yet."

I AM OKAY WITHOUT IT
