I don't get why people rush to the next replica platform that will go down the exact same path of overstimulating you / mentally harming you.
Just delete Instagram.
Don't replace it.
I deleted instagram. I held on to Facebook for 2 reasons. One, marketplace has taken over as the only viable local resell platform. And Two, it's the only platform I can use to share my music locally and vastly. I want my friends, family, and neighbors to hear my music and other than handing out a card with QR code to my Spotify, then I kind of stuck.
I refuse to use Facebook even for Marketplace. I still have pretty good luck with Craigslist.
I don’t sell locally often but when I do, I use craigslist. It’s also great for picking up a cable modem on the cheap when moving into a new area (don’t have to deal with the ISP-supplied one).
Just don't use marketplace for apartment and house hunting. It's filled to the brim with scammers.
I sold a bridge to someone on FB marketplace. I love it

I think they get used to the level of stimulation and now feel "wrong" without it. It takes a certain self-awareness to realize that it would be healthier to recalibrate your expectations. (I don't think Pixelfed is a comparatively harmful platform at the moment anyway, although I suppose it could someday become one.)
