Honestly the fallout of the TikTok ban is making me think the world would actually be much better off without any social media. Some social media use is fine and good in moderation, but social media companies design their app specifically to be used in excess with little care for the wellbeing of users. A lot of people are getting straight up addicted and dependent on these apps. People need to learn to develop real world skills and make actual irl friends in their communities when possible.
