> Social Media is a dystopian hell machine. It's bad for your privacy and health. Don't use it.
By using [minimalism/essentialism](TODO) practices we can mitigate it and its problems.
- Remove any social media accounts if possible
- [Use RSS](TODO) to get posts from blogs/channels/community...
- Setup XMPP/Matrix bridge with your friends/work group chats
- Move to [secure messenger (XMPP)](TODO)
- If you have to use social media, keep it minimal:
- Define what you **need** from social media (e.g. yt video development - you need to post new videos and answer comments)
- Disable notifications
- Disable any unnecesarry for your **needs** features (like feed, stories, channels, group chats...)
- Make sure it does only what you need from it and nothing more that may lure you to do what you don't want to (e.g. scroll videos)
- Create separate account
- Create separate phone profile/user to use social media
- Use DnD (Do not Distrube)
- Use more private alternative (youtube -> invidious)
