Comment on Ask HN: Do you use social media?

Comments

I signed up on FB in 2005 and linkedin in 2003. This was when social started to get some serious momentum. I was on myspace before FB. 10-13 years later I do not use any of them. Why? FB seems more appropriate for teenagers or young adults. I grew up since then and have other hobbies. Linkedin is like a Resume, totally worthless (in my case) besides searching for a new job every 3 to 5 years.

Twitter? I opened an account a while back and didn't see any differences between FB status update and 140 character.

FB seems more appropriate for teenagers or young adults.

They're all on Snapchat now, and the teens who joined FB early have since locked down their FB accounts to super-private and use it to talk to their parents, because their parents shy away from Snapchat.
