  Group chat with family on the other side of the country. Bad idea.

    I also have a group chat with my family. I wouldn’t call that social media. I’m thinking about actual social media, like Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, et. al, not just texting. Of course I communicate with my family.

      Ya I know it isn’t quite the same. But it’s close. And the warning fits.

  Counter point: only do social media (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc) with people you know.

  It’s the other crap, mostly commercialized, that is toxic.
