Personally I believe that social media usage can be a good or bad thing. Based on what you are using it for or what you are exposed on. Social media can be used to keep up with current events. being that some news articles comes to social media before you'll see it on the NEWS. Social Media can be used to stay connected or getting involved. With this new wave of entrepreneurship, a lot of people are beginning to use their social media influence for monetary gain. Some of the more negative impacts of social media could be that it is getting in the way of true leisure. Social media can be used as a distraction without even knowing. Some people can scroll on TikTok or Instagram for hours and lose a lot of productive hours. Social media can affect individuals mentally with the idea of comparison or realizing what you may or may not have based on what is being seen on social media.
