Types of Social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, have become popular because it’s a simple and easy way to be connected with your friends, share pictures with people, and find out what’s happening in the world or with the people around you. When social media was first starting up,only a small certain number of people used it, who were mostly called innovators,but then soon after other peoples, called early adopters, started using it too because they saw how fun and useful it can be. As more and more people started using social media, it became mainstream, and eventually even the late adopters started. However,Some people have still not joined it. The reasoning for this a lot of the time is because they don’t see a need for it.
Certain people became early adopters because they liked the idea of being able to stay connected or sharing their lives, but others have been hesitant. They may be worried about privacy, being addicted to it, or they may just not feel like they need to use it. Social media can be very addictive and can make some people feel anxious or bad about themselves. It also collects a lot of personal data from people and some people find this scary.I personally decided to join social media because its an easy way to stay in touch with people that i am close to and share with them what I’m doing in real time, however, i acknowledge that it could also take up a lot of my time because it is addicting as well as, I know that sometimes it can make me feel left out or stressed by seeing certain things. Sometimes, I may log off of social media because I don’t feel like I need to use it at the time or because I’m concerned about my privacy. Overall, I think that the negatives such as stress and privacy risks potentially outweigh the positives for a lot of people but for me,the benefits of staying connected make it worth it.
