There has been an increase in the number of millennials getting off social media. That’s becoming a trend in some circles. The generation that scrambled enthusiastically onto the social media bandwagon, millennials have seen it all and are processing upgrades day in and day out. They’re doom scrolling until brought back to reality, or carrying on with online classes or meetings while secretly giggling at extravagant memes over social media. We can’t take up a challenge to watch a content piece for more than a minute. Attention spans have shrunk and ‘urgency culture’ is on the rise.
We’ve realised that, after a certain point, it all becomes exhausting. Strangers claiming “positive vibes” with sparkly emojis are not relatable after some time. We need to cool our jets and stay calm.
A social media hiatus is much needed - even if you’re not going through a breakup or some other such event that calls for you to lie low for a while. Getting off social media is for your own sanity.
