“Share Your Escape Plan: How Do You Get Off Social Media Without Missing It?”
Hey everyone 👋 Let’s talk about the *great social media escape plan!* If you’ve ever decided it’s time to leave a platform behind — how did you actually do it? Did you hit “delete,” quietly disappear, or just move the app into a folder called “later”? 😅 Turns out, if you’ve thought about quitting Instagram, you’re definitely not alone. According to recent reports, Instagram tops the list of “most-deleted” social media sites — people search for how to delete it over **a million times a month**! Snapchat trails behind, but Insta seems to be everyone’s favorite breakup. 💔📱 If you’re ready to make your exit, here’s the quick scoop: - Most platforms hide the real delete button in browser settings — you usually have to go beyond the app to find it. - Deactivation is reversible; deletion takes about 30 days before it’s final. - Don’t forget to grab your favorite photos or DMs before you vanish into digital dust. So, what’s your story? **Which site did you leave (or want to leave), and how did you actually pull it off?** Bonus points if your strategy involved snacks, memes, or sheer willpower. ``` I want to clarify my interest in this question. I am investigating developing an AI bot that removes one's posting history and then closes one's unwanted social media accounts. It is an arduous, time-consuming process to delete individually all your posts. But it is a repetitive process that can be automated by AI. This is my new product, so please do not share the information with others. I am trying to survey what the experience of Social media users is when trying to delete their accounts, and how they do it. Whether they just hibernated their account or actually deleted it.
