Very relevant discussion for our times. Social media is definitely one of the more pressing issues in modern society. I guess I disagree with the notion that you should always straight up delete it. I think moderation is still a better way to go here (though that might be me being too idealistic ). But that’s personal decision. If a person feels like it has a negative impact on their life, especially their spiritual life, then it is appropriate to quit it all together. Overall, I think the thing itself is not bad, but abuse of it is. But each person should definitely evaluate their social media use, keeping in mind some of the points that you mention. Do you think social media affects relationships/dating? I think it does and in a negative way. I feel it creates a sort of distorted sense of reality, like first in terms of beauty standards but definitely other aspects as well.
Hi there, yes you're right not everyone needs to delete it. Ideally it should be manageable and effect quality of life. However especially for those in the dating phase of life, I think it does distort reality as you mentioned, and quitting altogether might be a good option for those in that boat
