My beef with Social Media Platforms

Social Media Platforms like Facebook has been around for at least a decade now or maybe well known for a decade.   I don't use it much and I think the way it is being used hasn't changed much.

Extroverts gets energy when they socialize while introverts' energy get sucked away.

I consider myself more of an introvert than extrovert that's why I don't like social media technologies.   It tires me out.   On top of that,  I don't need a founder of a technology to say what I want or need.  For example,  a long time ago Facebook pushed out news feed and other new fearures.  Each time they push something "new", they would force it on their users and get a backlash.  Eventually,  people "love" the forced new feature.  Well, it's 2017 and I still hate newsfeed.

Please don't forget Facebook started out for some people as a platform to stalk their crush(es) at university classes.

I don't know what it is now but, to me, it's a pest I can't get rid of.
