[quote=Anonymous]I used to be on Facebook but realized I was checking it daily but not really enjoying it, so I took a couple hiatuses. During the second hiatus, I realized not only did I not miss it at all, but I was kind of dreading going back on. So instead I just deleted my account. It felt great. I still use Instagram very occasionally and I love Twitter, but my experience with Facebook taught me that I don't actually need any of it. I'll take long breaks from Twitter when I start to get annoyed with it, and only log back on again when it feels fun again. I have actually made real friends on Twitter, plus I get a lot out of the people in my field that I follow -- I've learned about opportunities and gotten some amazing advice. I try to avoid the political stuff, not because I'm apolitical (the opposite actually), but because I just don't think it's a great venue for talking politics. The political conversations are always an echo chamber.[/quote]
