Breaking Free: Choosing Clarity Over Chaos in the Social Media Maze
Tumblr media
As I work on transitioning away from Facebook, I’ve been exploring various social media platforms to figure out what works best for me. I’ve joined several apps to see which one aligns with my needs. Taking a break from Facebook these past few days has brought a surprising sense of sanity—I’m no longer bombarded with content Facebook thinks I want to see. This isn’t about politics or religion; it’s about stepping away from the “machine”—or maybe just switching to a different one. However, this shift has given me a better sense of control over what I see, and I feel more authentic in the process.
Platforms like Bluesky, Truth, and X seem no different from Facebook—they’re filled with political noise that fuels hatred and division. In contrast, Tumblr and TikTok adapt to my actions, showing posts based on what I like and share. LinkedIn is refreshingly business-oriented and appeals to the professional side of me, while Pinterest feels like the perfect space for the real me. On Pinterest, even though I can’t control who follows me, I can create private boards and share them only with those I choose.
Ultimately, social media has distracted me from maintaining meaningful connections with those closest to me. The best way to share personal updates is within a small, trusted circle. Depending on where you fit in my circle, you can decide which platform is the best way to connect with me. There’s more to the world than Facebook, and I encourage you to explore alternatives.
Through this journey, I’ve also discovered new things about my Facebook friends. Many are incredibly talented musicians, artists, and writers, while others run small businesses that don’t get the recognition they deserve on Facebook. Unfortunately, posts like this one may not get much visibility because, once again, Facebook controls what’s seen.
Romans 12:2 "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."
Change is created by choice.
