  • Why we should quit social media. In this video, I explain how the business model of social media companies works and how that affects us as individuals and as as a society. I also share some tips on what we can do to minimize the negative effect social media has on our lives.
    Social media has a devastating effect on our ability to focus, our mental health, and our relationships. It creates political polarization and even leads to offline violence. By removing all non-essential technologies from our lives we can become free from the grip that social media has on our lives.

    The irony is that these kinda quality videos have only a few thousand views.

    I deleted my Facebook account last year. I got sick of seeing post after post of other people's wonderful events and then feeling like Charlie Brown later. I have no regrets! :)

    This is by far the most informative and most compelling video I have seen on quitting social media. A LOT have posted/written about this subject but your research, arguments, and presentation easily top them all. Kudos! 💯

      fantastic. you seem confident in your new found knowledge, please answer this question.
      so you shouldn't go down rabbit holes, but it's ok to create content for others to jump into your rabbit hole?

      @@businesswalks8301 I think the appropriateness of diving into a rabbit hole depends on the *type of content* that rabbit hole has to offer. If it’s the kind of beneficial, productive content that Johannes here puts out so eloquently and effectively all the time, then yes, by all means dig deep into that rabbit hole lol.
      But if it’s those cringey, petty, nonsensical and/or time-consuming hogwash that’s permeated TikTok, I think you have your answer.

    Like with diet, it is better to do smaller, but permanent change. The x-day detox doesn’t make much sense if you then come back and “regain the weight”.

    I just don’t bother to post on it anymore! Just say Happy Birthday! Only like photos of females if a family member or man is in it! Women generally take social media waaaay too seriously to the point that liking a photo can trigger rage or depression in them. I don’t think it’s much of a relationship if clicking on an image can threaten the other person to end it but there you are.

    Thank you for all the valuable thoughts you share with us! Your channel is so inspiring and motivating for changes. I have already read most of the books that you recommended in your previous videos and they have really changed my perspective. You’re doing a great job and I hope that you will upload more videos soon. All the best from Poland! :)

    I totally agree! I closed all accounts except for Reddit and I’m only on a bit and I’m so much less stressed. Thus us very good advice!

    Johannes, thanks for another thought-provoking video!! 💯You are wise beyond your years. I hope to stay off reading Reddit for awhile. Other social media platforms I am rarely on, thankfully. CZcams is pretty addictive too, but my excuse is there is so many possibilities to learn new things there.

    I'm interested in how it gets us in rabbit holes in groups and comments that are described as "communities" but it's not taught how to use social media to connect in real life. I'm not really sure how to do such a thing

    I enjoy your video, I think you can use social media, but not 24/7, maybe not even once a day or once a week, it should be a small treat, not some sort of monster constantly gobbling on your soul. Take care, thank you for a giving video
