A mix. I spend less time on all social apps overall, opting for way more time doing what I’d describe as consciously avoiding fomo: playing video games, cooking, going to bars with friends, going to the gym, reading, etc etc etc. just consciously ramping up all of this to kill the urge to doomscroll.
When I do use social, its a mix, weighted as follows:
- instagram: mostly close friends, plus the algo feeding me way too well curated content
- farcaster: muting a lot of the accounts and bots that are popular dramatically cuts down the noise
- mastodon: I like Linux, the open web, and retro tech; the “fediverse” is full of content about these niches
- bluesky: basically a 1:1 sub for everything good about twitter, with very little about what’s bad about twitter. I keep up with a brand accounts and politicians. And I follow feeds like Linux, Emulation, and Urbanism, so I can easily escape the discover feed’s barrage of vapid self-aggrandizing liberals.
- I cross post certain things to Lens but barely use it at all.
