The main reason we use social media is to share our joy, right? But you can see where we are now in the name of social media. It's not 'social media' anymore. Our feeds are full of advertisement, we are becoming more close to materialistic things rather than our friends and family. Social media is not producing joy solely anymore. There are many more things involved with it. This has a huge impact on our self-esteem, lifestyle and mental health. I think that the way we use social media should be more organized so that we can get the utmost benefits from it.
If you want to get what you meant to from social media, you have to take some action. If you don't want to see ads, if you want to see more people than materials, if you want to be more close to your 'friends', if you want to see a niece; you can do that. We just need to organize that. So how can we do that? Here're are simple steps I follow to make my social media profile more beneficial and meaningful-
Unsubscribe, unfollow, block. What doesn't interest you anymore do this whatever it's people, page or group.
Give feedback about ads to the social media team, use ad blockers if you don't want to see them.
Set the preference and skip others. Your feed will be what you want to see based on this.
Find the niece what interests you and the feed will be like that gradually. Like fitness, gaming, lifestyle.
The 'artificial intelligence' system of different social media is very powerful. It tracks everything that you are doing. So if you want to reduce or increase to see certain things on social media, you can do more or less that. The artificial intelligence will gradually organize your feed that way. As I have said earlier, we need to take action to make it more organizing. So, if you are looking for doing business or close with your frinds just follow those steps. I think that would be helpful.
