Should I make a Snapchat/Instagram account?

sure, its a great way to socialise with people and waste your time but in my personal opinion the mainstream social media apps are a toxic cesspool of data farming, trend hopping, advertisements and people trying to justify their own existance to themselves and others by maintaining a false image. There are plenty of positives, like communication and socialization but from my own pesonal experience, its gets you hooked with meaningless crap and the negatives slowing begin to outweigh the positives. Dont listen to me though, im probably looking way too deep into it. There are plenty of apps designed just for talking rather than building a whole personality profile.
