YouTube - Where else can you find the full ISU-Pitt Insight Bowl game, and then watch slap fight best knockouts?

Facebook, like all social media, eventually has to figure out how to make bucks. So, of course, unwanted advertising everywhere. As a result, I've cut way back and only use it to message friends.

Reddit, FB, YT and Twitter. All for different purposes.

I love that reddit can be so specialized. The only downside is some sub reddits seem to be filled with 12 year olds.

I like that I can just follow people on Twitter that I'm interested in following and block others. Not ignore, really block. I'd love to see that option on Message boards.

Youtube allows me to do projects I'd never consider before. Also, Great for travel, walkthroughs, reviews, etc. Probably my favorite.

FB just keeping track of what high school friends are doing and local business. Some of the FB groups are terrible e.g. Des Moines food reviews. If you say one negative thing about a popular place, they'll kill you.

I have Facebook but most of my feed is
Traeger and instant pot recipe stuff. I unfriended or unfollowed all of the people that posted stupid political crap and it makes it so much easier to deal with.

I watch a lot of sports videos and auto resurrection stuff on YouTube. I also get a lot of my news from international sources on YouTube (British, French German and Australian) .

I’m on Twitter but am close to dropping it. 80% of the tweets come from accounts I don’t follow and many are political in nature disguised as different topics. I don’t want to spend half my twitter activity muting accounts I don’t follow. Most of the replies on twitter seem to come from trolls which makes it even worse.
