I originally had signed up for a few social media platforms in their early days but over time I felt that I wasn't seeing what I thought I wanted to see. As companies started tailoring their algorithms things started to get less relevant to my interests. As a result I left behind those platforms for a couple of years before...
I use facebook to keep up with people’s life updates, and to keep up with local news by following all the local news channels and newspapers on there. I barely post on facebook, mostly just check in once or twice a day to see what’s happening. I also like being available on facebook if someone needs to contact me who doesn’t otherwise have my contact info. Someone once was able to alert me to an emergency situation involving a relative, because they were able to track me down on facebook.
I’ve never liked the idea of twitter, so never even signed up. Not really interested in instagram either, maybe if I had pictures I wanted share with the world, but I don’t.
I use reddit and discord some, but I’m not very sociable, tend to just lurk. I’m trying to be social here.
The world can be a pretty strange place, but it's good to look back and find at least one thing that was good to you today. Be that a nice conversation, a cool picture you saw, a song you heard... whatever! But if you didn't find anything good today, here's your sign: go do one thing for you, right now. Even if its just a moment...
I saw the large Canada goose family that hangs around at my neighborhood pond, and all the babies are just about grown now. You can only barely tell apart the young ones from the parents, because their feathers a little patchy in some spots. I love geese and ducks, and I love to watch the babies grow up.
Outside of this, do you use anything that could be considered social media?

Seeing him has brightened my day
What's something good that happened to you today?
