why YOU NEED to QUIT SNAPCHAT
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 05. 2024
- I recently quit using Snapchat after 3 years, this was a very hard thing to do for me. This app is sounded with a constant social stigma where you are expected to constantly be active and responding on your phone. It generates a toxic environment where you cant leave someone on open, all for a random picture of a wall or your forehead. I also talk in the video about the mental effects, short and long term. I urge you to PLEASE! reconsider your use of this app and the way it is affecting your life.

Snapchat is only one little example of a modern society that is become more and more and more casual, superficial, desolate and devoid of meaningful conversation. Remember back when we judged people by character, personality and not appearance? Remember the years when we cherished every photo we took, taking them very sparingly because of limited film? Remember those times when we appreciated every second of a paid phone call from a landline that was rarely available, because we yearned for in depth conversation? Yeah, those days are long gone. So like Tyler said, stop taking random pictures of your forehead or sending meaningless abbreviated texts. Go out into the world and dare to be different, be the person who lives in the moment, cherishing real people from real connections. Thank you for this video Tyler.
YES KEVIN! You perfectly described it. I was born into that second "forhead" era with unlimited storage. I wish I was able to expierence the beforehand!! But totally, some really great points there. Thank you for wathcing :)
Yeah 🙏
You are spitting facts. I literally wasted so much time in my younger years with streaks & trying to raise my snap score. Like for what? It never meant anything
Also everyone was so surprised when I deleted the app. People I never even speak to regularly questioned it.
Wow... that really opened my eyes Tyler. I honestly am considering deleting Snapchat now because the things you said were entirely true! Keep up the great content!
You go get it Itai!!! You can so do it. A big move but defenitly an important one. Thanks so much for watching, I really appreciate it.
Personally I had Snapchat for 2 years now, but I never got addicted to it. I use it about the same if not less than instagram. I didn't realize snapchat is that addicting as in people get mad at you for reading their message but not replying. I personally don't even have Netflix because too much distraction these days. CZcams and Instagram is enough for me. But it's great you were able to get yourself to delete snapchat i can't imagine spending 3 hours a day on it. Great video Tyler keep them coming!
Yeah honestly if you haven't seen it first hand it's hard to believe. People go crazy over their streaks and that app in general. If you are able to have it and not be on it that much, that is amazing. #CantRelate hahaha. Thanks for watching again dude :)
Deleted my Snap today and this has reaffirmed my decision. Thanks so much for putting this type of content out there. Much needed 🙏🏼
You really really hit the nail on the head here Tyler. Awesome video man, I really resonate with your message and I’m glad you finally got the urge to delete Snapchat!
Great video man, really changed my mind on snap and put things in perspective. It really stresses you out too and sometimes makes you overthink and feel like you have no friends. I’ll be deleting it now and keep up the great content!
Quit Snapchat 1 month ago and have 0 regrets. Had withdraw symptoms at first but then they go away.
Absolutely 100% true and accurate! I've been on Snapchat since 2014, but I didn't start using the app up until about a year ago, and to this day, I still don't get the point of streaks... It's a false sense of "fun" to see that little counter go up everyday, and the nail-biting anxiety that goes along with seeing that hourglass--too evil sides of Snapchat. Time and time again, I've thought about throwing it all out the window and deleting Snapchat, but it has such a strong and manipulative grip on me that it's difficult to to that step; however, I most definitely will soon... I'm very happy to see that you were able to get rid of Snapchat once and for all, and I hope I will be able to take this step very soon, too!
Keep the amazing content coming, and awesome drone shots at the end!
Exactly! You hit it perfectly. It really is challanging, but I know you can do it. Let me know how it goes!!
Will do, thanks!
I don’t do Snapchat for the forehead pictures or streaks I use it to talk to my friends
Amazing video Tyler. You really helped my realize that I have wasted multiple hours a day on Snapchat. Just deleted the app. Again, thanks for making this informative video. You are very underrated.
Awh thanks so much Austyn. So glad it helped you - #epiphanymoments right!! I appreciate it :)
this is something really inspiring. it’s hard to quit when it is the main way I communicate to my roommates. I’ve been wanting to quit it over the past year and this video give me reassurance on that goal I have.
Let’s go Nathan - so proud of you 🙏
Communicate with them on another app like what’s app
this one gonna blow up mark my word the man spoke pure truth
i hope so. thanks so much :)
agreed!
Thank you for this video ✨ I've deleted snap right after watching this video, I was trying to get over this addiction from a long time but I failed every time. I'm gonna have withdrawn symptoms but I'll not play this game of this "streaks" again!
Thankss again 🙌
Ayeee congrats! Good luck - I hope you can stick with it!
Let’s go king 🤴
Dude this is so true. I had it for year and I thought how pointless it was. It’s deleted now.
Decided to take a break from Instagram today. Love the drone footage at the end 👍
It will do you so good! Can’t wait to hear about the results. Thanks a ton for watching :)
These are the exact thoughts that I think about the app !
I was just about to go back snap but my gut was telling me to listen to this video.
Long story short: I never opened it. Deleted it again & I have 0 regrets. 🥳🥰
Are used to have Snapchat and then I deleted it about a year ago. Though I may miss some parts of it like always texting and always seeing at having other people send me stuff, there was so many bad parts of it that made me crazy. For example I spent so much time on it and I always was on a waiting for a new snap and I also got into arguments on there too. I too would be angry if someone doesn’t reply to my snap or doesn’t open them. Looking at that it’s kind of dumb why I should be worried about that when there’s other problems that are more important. I see my friends on Snapchat particularly one of them she just is always on their swiping and going on it and it’s kind of pathetic like it’s not it’s not fun it’s not cool though all the cool people do it. It’s actually sad seeing that. I also feel like I felt like I have more friends on there, but they’re not real friends and the only real friends are in person and with my friends I don’t really text them and I like that I’m fine with that because it’s better.
Congrats 🥳🥳 - Everything you said there is 100% facts!!!!
This is interesting my friend..Keep connected xx
Thank you so muchh, the longer I stay on there the moee I feel that I'm embarrassing myslef.I always watch other peoples lives and I start to envy them, its messing with my home life.
You got this! Glad to give you some inspo :)
Dude i went on a date with this girl for mby 2 or 3 hours, and i told her that if she is by any means borred and does not find me interesting she could leave without me getting upset or mad yet she still spent 99% of that time we were out takind pics non stop and sending them. She mby left the phone out of her hand for 5 to 10 mins out of whole excrutiating one sided conversation that lasted 3 hours. This is the definition of addiction, and what is interesting is that my cigarette addiction isnt that bad like i can without fuss last few hours without one and even then its mild craving for nicotine but man she couldnt let her phone down for more than 5 mins.
Definitely something to think long and hard about...
Totally. All about your mindset.
been waiting on this one
yesss!
I deleted snap from my teens life. She's so much more present in real life . Glad I did
Definitely deleting mine now I have all these things u said it’s addictive
"always be on there and always be say something back" god how i hate that on snapchat!
Also that stupid deletion policy always deletes messages on my friends end before i have a chance to see them and when i have a chance to reply they already forgotten what they say and it always makes me look stupid
It's not even about the time you're spending on snapchat, the mere idea of streaks and sending snaps every single day
literally makes no sense.
im about 1.65 years clean of snap chat. subscribed !!!!
All i see on Snapchat is thirst traps or chids in certain weird places and times where you just shouldn't be recording your kids 1 spotlight I saw was of a little kid falling in the shower completely naked they put bars over it but not very good
I was reluctant to use snapchat until 2 years ago i downloaded it and used it a lot. Right now I only really snap like 10 people regularly but i still find myself constantly checking the app. I have wanted to delete the app for a few weeks now because its just a pointless app bc my friends can just hit my number but my main friend group uses a snapchat groupchat for planning everything. I'm conflicted on deleting the app and missing out on going out with my friends but spending more time studying and doing well in my last year of hs, or keeping it and finding moderation. I feel like snap always tries to grab your attention with stories and constant pop ups when someone snaps u.
Dang, that was deep! we all need to see this vid.. It took me a while but I was able to erase it recently. Feels good.
BIG CONGRATS! That is a super hard thing to do so amazing on you :)
@@TylerCocci it sure is man, thank you so much! It’s even tempting when you meet new people and they ask you if you have Snapchat 😅
Oh yeah I totally know how that one goes. Send them over to IG instead :)
@@TylerCocci You got that right bro. Always good to have an alternative :) (I was able to get rid of Facebook too!)
That’s awesome. Totally true
Interesting video 🔥
Haha thanks :)
So true bro like people are mad after loosing their streaks as if its affecting their lives lmao
All these medias is the reason people started to developed the anger of BEING LEFT ON READ. Open your eyes people delete it and LIVE YOUR LIFEEEE
FACTSSSS
Brotha, you got good point 🤭
i just deleted snapchat after 5 whole years of using it.. im going to be real,it did mess up my mental health a lot and i have no regrets
Congrats man - thats huge!!!
I am using it from nearly about 1.5-2 years, yes it affects mental health 🥲
Finally gonna delete my Snapchat !! After ur motivation [date-5th nov ] I have 1000+ streaks 🙂
Thanks for this video I deleted my snap in 2020 best decision of my life
Totally agreed
And how about thoughts on TikTok? Probably deserves its own video.
delete. it’s just scrolling and scrolling and scrolling and scrolling. most people are toxic on there, too. it’s really addictive. I deleted it and I feel so much better (a while ago) of course, it’s your choice, but I would. also sorry, you meant him not me 😅
Tyler: you need to quit Snapchat
*basically every 10-14 year old girl with a snapscore of 100k or more: no I need my streaks*
Yeah I think you described my sister lol
@@yayayayya4731 bro described me too
i'm gonna do it today, delete snapchat and instagram ( i dont have any facebook account) , Today is July 30th and i will be back after 1 year to tell you guys my experience.
good job
6 months left
3 months left
1 month left!!!
Cant wait to hear soon
So facts bro
Yessir. Thanks for watching :)
Honestly I use snap to text friends not to tell people their ugly
I’m on Twitch 10 Hours a day. I love twitch & CZcams
Never used it never will
💪
I left snapchat because me and my friend's always argue in it and I just quit it so I can be friends again
On what you used to argue?
True inspiring
Hope kids will understand this after their 1401 streax.
Snapchat and Instagram both are destroying our today's generation
Quora was my replacement for Snapchat
Thank you for this video I just delete Snapchat
tyler what mike do you have
I use the Rode VideoMic Pro and the Rode Wireless Go system.
Deleted it can't be bothered to toxic makes me overthink I'm done with it
i had ah 200 streak with this girl then she removed me… i deleted snapchat now i wasted 15 hours ah day on that app i want to die
at least it's not as bad as twitter
Depends on the person haha
Twitter is toxic too..
Lol got permanently banned on snapchat and cant make a new account. When I get a new phone and am able to redownload and make a new snap account I wont even do it.
Why did they ban you?
@@nadeygmail944 tried to sell shrooms on my private story. Spread the word. App is hella gay tho anyway so idgaf
hi how are you ?
But where are we going to buy are drugs?
I kno this is a joke. But snapchat is the most unstable place for dealing dope. Call your dealer using a phone booth. Next time make an appointment so u can just meet up without talking over the phone first
I also do not have snapchat
gonna do that
Update : my mental health improved so much best decision so far 😊
Yea I don't really like snapchat
i- wait that’s true doe
you know it :)
Snap doesn’t define your worth
100% !!
I only turned off my notifications because I go to school and if I need to contact someone I don't have their number.
Snapchat say "Snapchat is for real friends" which is just cap real friends have my number.
❤❤❤
I'm about to delete snapchat, should I?
If you feel that is the right move, then 100%!
@@TylerCocci just deleted last night, I'll see how I go?
How did it go?@@Sf-tp2zp

WhatsApp has group chats and even communities
Snapchat looks crap. I like messenger best
Snap is for females that want to discract men from their life goals
pretty facts
👍👍👍
you look like stingy from lazytown
Can I get a shoutout next video

bruh snapchat is so anoying like I got it to comminucate with friends but all they do is send a wall- and if im lucky, they write an "S" using the pen tool.
also I am SOOO stressed that I am going to lose that stupid little number (snapstreak) next to their name, and before I got snapchat I would be like "ok. It's just a number." now, I put getting the timer away by sending a snap before anything.
also me and my best friend currently have a streak of 74 and I thought that was pretty good, until she posted on her story a screenshot of some RANDOM guy in our class, who has a snapstreak of 200 with her!!! AND, she was doing sendit, and someone said "bsfl?🤞" (which means 'best friends list') and she posted her bsfl, and I WASN'T ON THERE! (keep in mind I'm her best friend). Like, she was at the top of MY best friends list!
SPEAKING of sendit, the dice roll questions are disgusiting. I'll list a few (promise you wont gag)
"got a sneaky link?"
"are you single?"
"You're so hot"
"Would you date me if I asked you out?"
There's not a single normal one.
Like, some kids using this app are 10! They probably dont even know what a "sneaky link" is. And also, I didnt know that dice roll things exsisted when I first did sendit on my story, so I thought people actually liked and cared about me, but no, it was just some people who were too bored to write anything, so they just pressed the dice emoji.
it's absolute bullshit
edit: just found out my so called "best friend" has 4 other bestfriends. Shes moved 4 times. 1 for every location. (also she just moved 2 weeks ago and I'm certain she will find the fith one.) Idk about you but I dont deal with jealousy well and too me, its kinda toxic not to tell ur bff and let her find out herself.
I kinda wanna loose contact with her. She makes me feel like shit a lot of the time.
i wanna delete only reason is my memories 🥲
fr what do i do about that
Idk that’s a hard one
I think if u download ur data from the snap website it'll give u an option to download ur memories.
