So today I wanna talk about the community here on Steemit; It's great! I feel like for the most part, people try harder on here to actually post more interesting stuff whether it's about their homes, jobs, hobbies or life experiences & a lot of the time, I get to learn new shit haha.I always like learning about new stuff & hey, were getting paid to just interact on here! These facts remind me of just how shitty & time wastimg facebook can be.I mean think about it, how much time in a day do you think you or somebody you know spends on facebook? It's a waste of time where people mainly post about negative shit constantly as if social media is gonna fix it for them or just stirring up drama.To top this off, no money, it only costs you your time.Plus whats more screwed up is, facebook developers have even admitted to creating something that gets people addicted using your dopamines with facebook likes, your profile & constant notifications blowing your phone up.It all sounds awful, just so they can have you hooked on your phone more.Yes I have a facebook & I use to waste way too much time on it.But as of lately, it feels dull to me & I'm starting to use it less & less everyday.So my message is, use your time more wisely! It's a precious thing & needs to be treated like it is.
I noticed that after about a week of daily steemit use, I just about forgot what facebook was. It's about making a new habit, i feel.
To a certain degree, yes.I go on steemit daily now but I'm not constantly checking it like I would facebook.Haha it's kinda a good thing steem ain't sending us notifications constantly.
100% with you man i hate how fb manipulates people into doing their work they are rich and the people poorer averyfday
Don't forget that facebook also ingrains itself into your devices, passively capturing practically your every move/interaction not only with their application but with other applications as well. That information is bundled up in a tidy package to be bought, sold, shared, and subpoenaed. People don't realize this, but it's the reality of it. Facebook isn't a charity, it's a multi-billion dollar business that the government can also utilize to encroach upon your private life. It's grotesque. You are the product. You are what's for sale. You are the crop, you get harvested, they reap the rewards.
Bow out of that mold and into what's new. This . . . for now. I personally cannot wait to see what happens on EOS :-).
Haha how did I forget to mention the privacy invasion? But yes, Facebook is ran by greedy cunts invading people's privacy to assist with profiting off of you...beyond dirty!
