Instragram Deactivated

It's been 5 months since I've deactivated my instagram since then I've some different kind of peace. I'm not saying all my problems are solved I do still have them but I can focus properly on solving them. I am stressed and before also I was but atleast I'm out of that scrolling addiction and any reel will pop up in my feed with any random people with different different opinions, different mindset and different POV will create a conflict in my brain. You might have noticed the music, songs which are used in reels are very common, trending and repetitive and that keeps bumping in your brain whenever you are in your free time.

What triggered me most to leave insta is AI. AI videos are absolutely shit. I'm surely missing latest things happening in world so I'm just reading news, blogs.

I might have a sensitive mind so I choose to deactivate for my own good as I was noticing it's effect on me.

I haven't completely deactivated, but I have cut down the usage. I use it 1-2 days, uninstall, and later install after 2 weeks sometimes in a month. It is also working.

Best way is to use Insta from your laptop. That way it limits usage and there’s additional effort;

It’s been 6 years since I deactivated it, and honestly, I realised it’s all just shit… it only steals your peace and energy. The sooner you realise it, the better

Feeling positive to see founders are using their own apps. Good to see you here.

It has been more than 1 year since I deactivated it, all going good. Just am not able to stay connected with my circle and don't know what and where they are.
