Agreed @healthyswimmer! It’s all about personalization.
Nice @anon76657042, I use that analogy frequently.
A nice article on CNBC about how quiting Instagram and Facebook makes you happier:

A few years back i deactivated Facebook for 2 years and didn’t miss it one bit.
However after a few years i realised the value of being able to stay connected to people i had met whilst travelling and being able to join communities hence why i reactivated it.
I think that yes, it’s all dependent on the individual and how it is making you feel about yourself and the time you spend on it.
I kept all my close friends and deleted people that i hadn’t spoke to in years.
I also use newsfeed eradicator on my laptop and Feedzen on my iPhone to limit my distractions but also continue to use social media as a means of contact.
