After taking the “AM I ADDICTED TO SOCIAL MEDIA?” QUIZ i learned that i am fairly reliant on social media and that result is not surprising. The website states "You're fairly reliant on social media, but there are far worse culprits! Still, it's good to be reminded that UK adults spend an average of 8 hrs 41 mins on screens every day, and 4 hours of that on smartphone apps alone (mainly social media). That's about a third of each day checking apps. Do you need to rethink your social media habits and the amount of time you spend scrolling?" After reading that quite concerned me and tbat makes me want to spend much less time on social media.

After reviewing the Pew Research article the most interesting stat in the articles provided was that Most U.S. adults use Youtube, Facebook; half report using Instagram. I relate to this because the only three social media platforms I use are in the top 4 with those being Youtube, Instagram, and TikTok. I am also surprised that only 21% of U.S. adults report that they use Twitter.
Social Media's Impact on Society
Social Media's Impact on Society
In my personal opinion I believe Social Media has made more of a negative impact on society than a positive impact. Despite Social Media giving humans a way to connect with billions of others around the world I would argue that social media has made us less human. In real life it is quite hard to connect with other people because a lot of people base their personality from someone on social media. I also belive that people compare their own personal lives to strangers on social media to much which can possibily lead to less self confidence and depression.
Lessons Learned
Lessons Learned
The lesson I learned from this project is that i must manage my time better. I need to spend less time on social media and spend more time on things that will positively benefit me. Spending to much time on social media can cause negative effects in a persons life.
