I dont reply to "toxic" obidients comments anymore.
I post my views on my Whatsapp status not minding who loves it or not
I dont argue politics with anyone, not anymore. I discovered 80% of those arguing do so in ignorance, no basis, no knowledge, just because they heard something from someone else.
Viewing status on Whatsapp eats my data up, unnecessarily. So, I've reduced it to bearest minimum.
Facebook reels done with sinceee

Sanguine:
Deactivated my Whatsapp status so I don't even have access to post or see any status at all. I'm not interested in knowing whatever is happening in anybody's life.

Changed my Facebook to data mode. I don't see any pictures of anybody and anything, just captions. Hehehe.

Uninstalled Instagram.

Enter YouTube Once in a while to see skits from TheWinlos, latest movies from MZFP, etc.

Social media is what it is; fake life and ingredients on display here and there. I am very frugal, minimalist and rather anti-social. My life is JustSimpleLikeThat.com 😜

How did you do the emboldened?

I stop posting whatsapp status because whenever you're used to it.you might begi n to measure your self worth on the number of viewers you get.it's a pity when a friend of mine complained bitterly about a drop in his status view.He told me he isn't enjoying whatsapp anymore.i just laughed silently at him.people viewing your status doesn't add anything to your worth.
I learnt that the digital world is not going to miss you even if you go offline for a long period.therefore,It's far better for one to use the time one waste scrolling his or her finger sore on the media to learn a skill that will help him or her financially.
The only media forum i stick to is nairaland cos you will surely come across educative threads.

I have long deleted all my social media accounts except whatsapp. Same applies to all bet accounts, I self excluded myself from betting sites. Nairaland too, I don't have the time to post or comment on threads. Most of my time now is dedicated on graphics designing and videograph

1. I've stopped posting happenings on WhatsApp status. It sells out too much about your life. These days, I prefer to stay mysterious. You don't need to know anything about me.

2. I've forced myself to stop watching all these comedy reels on Facebook. It's a waste of data. These days, I spend my data learning Videography and Advanced Sound Design on YouTube.

3. I've placed on mute the statues of people on my WhatsApp who think life is a competition. Posting every new clothes/shoes they buy.

What's yours?

1. I have stopped arguing with Nigerians online esp when it has to do with religion and politics, most Nigerians are poor thinkers that have been damaged mentally, psychologically and off course financially by the ruling class since decades now... Giving them facts is like frying palm kernels⚠️

2. I have become silent about myself both online and offline ever since i noticed that my family are not very supportive of my relocation plans.... Jealousy has no boundaries⚠️

3. I have stopped posting my relationships online ever since my ex left me immediately i lost my job.... this was a girl i loved beyond imagination and was planning forever with, heartbreaking she sticked with me because of money ⚠️

No 2 is time-wasting. You are helping them make money on Facebook by watching their skit.

Engage your time and data in what is profitable

I've stopped attacking a particular tribe online. Even though I will h8 that tribe forever; especially their hypocrisy, their bloodshed, their terroristic, banditry, bigotry, paedophilia, illiteracy and evil lifestyle. I've stopped attacking them.

Used to argue with random strangers online when I was jobless.

Has to be my most unproductive year's.

Glad I'm too busy to have the time again.

A lot of things I did before

Re: What Are The Things You Have Stopped Doing On Social Media? by seanwilliam(m): 6:25pm On Sep 04, 2023

I don’t post my personal life-pics, achievements , moods- on social media
On whatapp I post only intellectual memes.
I don’t use Facebook , i use Twitter ,nairaland and YouTube more, I don’t like nor comment on women pics or posts except extremely intelligent ones( post only ).
I mute over 190 people on WhatsApp, only likeminded people see my posts.
I don’t view 90% of my contacts status.
I don’t argue politics, religion and tribe online cos chances are that you’ll make enemies for yourself( some people especially on nairaland and Twitter sabi take politics and tribe serious ehn)..
I don’t wish women happy birthday online ( you know why )
I stopped watching comedy these days cos it’s all about simping and women sexual harassment ( except layi’s).

I watch videos that have to do with masculine mindsets.
.

Finally I stopped taking internet serious the day I saw one guy’s posts on nairaland i actually know him offline I lodged at the hotel he’s working and we used to be friends back then at community grammar, we talked plenty that day about life and all that, saw him surfing nairaland that day and I could recognise his moniker, this is someone battling real life poverty and struggling with 25k salary ( he works in hotel ).,
He was giving financial advice to someone and broke shaming one guy that owns his own house and uses his own car for Uber o , telling the person that he earns nothing less down 2m in two weeks and can feed the person’s family. Ha ,

Bro I laugh sotey water comot for my face that day .
