I love this. I have stepped way back from social media, but haven't quit entirely. You may have convinced me though, with the thought of making creativity fun again. That's huge.
Another big thumbs up for a terrific post. I’m old so social media is way down my list of priorities. I see oldies keeping in touch with family and friends, but we’re just not interested in what others think about us, so we simply use social media as a tool for very specific purposes.
I do art every day for fun and I share it with my sister every day and show friends whenever I catch up with them. I’ve shared a couple of commissioned pieces on Facebook and Tumblr in the past, but have no interest in any of the manufactured ‘connections’ that Facebook is based on, so I simply never use it these days.
I DO use Tumblr mainly to follow artists and authors, but I keep a very tight rein on who I follow and anyone who doesn’t give me joy gets quietly unfollowed. It means I browse for about 30 joyful minutes a day, and then I share my favourite posts with my sister at night. A pleasure.
And thanks for the Chat option - I’ve just written a novel on there too. If I get too ‘noisy’ at any stage, just let me know and I’ll make things shorter. I just like to Chat. As you can tell. 😃🥰
This seems cool so far. I'm a Samsung lady so I have to wait for the chat to be available for Android 😄
