Instagram is definitely my favorite platform, I think. I totally get that. I'm an artist and I do photography and stuff so I'm much more interested in photos or like I guess more aesthetic videos, aesthetic artsy small business owner type thing. Those exist on TikTok but but I don't know Instagram just feels better.

You know, I've wondered how they say social media isn't good for you and you shouldn't use your phone before bed and all of that. But I'm wondering if they've ever done studies for more peaceful content if you're going online to watch meditations or just pretty videos of landscapes and nature and stuff, if that would Still have the same like toxic effects on your sleep and self-esteem.

That's awesome. Did you just quit cold turkey or did you have to wean yourself off of it?

That's me too. I have squirrel brain. I'll be online for something work related and then see a video and then it's off down the rabbit hole so I totally understand that.

Isn't it weird how we don't notice how much time is going by when we're actually scrolling and then it's only after we've seen like the clock or whatever and they're like that was not three hours

yeah it's honestly so scary it's like going down some kind of black hole

Hey I'm gonna lie I think I'll be honest at more than I've been on social media because I'd like to get shit off my check I like to see what other people thoughts and stuffy so I don't really really really spent a lot of time with TikTok and hold him of the app

Oh my gosh, I do this too. I'll stay up till like 3 o'clock and I'll just scroll. For some reason, Tik Tok seems so much better late at night. Maybe it's just because I'm delirious from lack of sleep.

Yeah I know that's why you know what that's deep that's deep yeah this app can be addicting because you get to hear peoples point of you and you can get it you get it it's kind of like sitting there like some I can message you like iMessage you right now you get to when you can and that's kind of dumb yeah I get it can you shut off his phone I'm not on this app more than TicTac but I can see house am I gonna be in and I'm on this app more and more as I start thinking about it that's a good point

Yeah, I would agree with that. I like Instagram reels because my algorithm is like pretty cottagecore aesthetic stuff. So it's nice and calming but TikTok you get a lot of like weird stuff I guess with everything else.

Yeah, it's really hard. I do most of my work on my phone, so it'll tell me I'm online 10 hours a day and I have a hard time knowing what part of that is work and what part of that is me scrolling.
