Social Media
 
How much are you into social media? What platforms do you use most? What sort of things do you like seeing on your feed, and what annoys you most?

bonus q: do you follow PokéCommunity on Twitter / like us on Facebook and if not, why not

I am on Twitter the most. I like seeing the majority of the things I follow, with one exception, which I am tempted to unfollow but I can't because this person also follows me ;w;

On Facebook LadBIble / Buzzfeed etc take up most of my feed that people share. Most of those are clips taken from elsewhere so Ladbible can get views ;x

Anyways, for me I go on Facebook the most. I do have a twitter that I seldom use, and a tumblr as well. However, I never really look at tumblr anymore, even though I probably should!

(and yes, I do follow PC's social media on both Facebook and twitter!)

I mostly use Facebook, but I have a Twitter account that I use from time to time. And yes I follow PokèCommunity on Facebook and on Twitter as well!

I use Facebook the most and follow PC there. I don't have Twitter account.

Ahh my bad, sorry guys!

I'm really late to the Twitter party - my account was created in 2014 but I only started using it recently (mainly because I wanted to tweet at my favorite streamer). Also followed as many PC folk as I could find, it's nice to see what you guys are up to outside of the forums. :)

On my personal account, I mainly only use Facebook for the messenger, and I help update PC's page regularly also.

And also on Snapchat, if that counts!

Lots of Tumblr. Some Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Latter two are more for following famous people I like.

Mawa May 14th, 2017 5:04 PM

I lurk on facebook but don't post much. I am not active on social media really. Snapchat is the one I am most active on. I have Pinterest too if that counts. No Twitter, an inactive tumblr.

I didn't notice that. But I guess it was the OP's fault to not point it out.

Anyways, I mainly use Twitter and Tumblr. Links are in signature.

i have facebook, but the only uses i have that for is a group chat and for people to tag me in weird posts. the main ones i use are twitter and snapchat.

Alex May 15th, 2017 7:37 AM

I have a Facebook, Twitter, Instagram account but I never use the latter two and only use Facebook for communication. I rarely read my fb news feed. maybe once every two weeks or so. Whenever I do, i get bored instantly.

Esper May 15th, 2017 5:28 PM

I have a facebook and tumblr account, but I hardly use them. It's just too tiring to always be worrying about social media, and the anxiety of feeling like you don't compare to other people (even when you know it's not a full/accurate picture of their lives) is not healthy.

Qibli May 15th, 2017 7:49 PM

Facebook before they need crappy confirmation about real name. It's bullcrap.

Lucario May 17th, 2017 10:45 AM

I only have twitter. And reddit if that counts although I doubt that's social media.

Leviathan May 17th, 2017 12:15 PM

I guess I was the type of person that joined social media sites 'back in the day', before platforms like Twitter and Facebook really took off.
I don't use social media much, though, but I do have an account on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr (does it count?) and (if it's still around) MySpace.

By far though my heart still belongs to the now-defunct Bebo social network site.
I loved that so much. Shame it fell behind in the great social media race. :(

OMG I remember Bebo! My friends and I were on that like every day in grade 7, haha. I remember making quizzes for each other, designing profiles, uploading photos and giving those little heart things in the comments. Good times. <3

Oh heck yeahs, the lil hearts and the quizes! I loved the 'create a skin' feature too and how profiles had view counters. Those were the days!

Somewhere_ May 17th, 2017 6:26 PM

poke community is my main social media, but while I dont post, I do use instagram to see what friends are up to

Desert Stream~ May 17th, 2017 7:16 PM

Uhh unless PC and Discord count, I'm not really on any. My parents wouldn't like it if I was, they're very concerned about my privacy for whatever reason...

Frozocrone May 18th, 2017 1:36 AM

I have Facebook, Snapchat, Yik Yak, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Imgur, Bebo, Hangouts, Whatsapp, Snapchat and Reddit if that counts.

Only really use Reddit and Facebook and even then not much. If I need to talk to someone, I have this thing called a phone.

Narwhal May 18th, 2017 7:18 AM

Well I used to own a 30k instagram meme page and a 60k vine account currently I own a 35k iFunny account lmao

Sylphiel May 18th, 2017 9:33 AM

I have a twitter account, a facebook account, a tumblr account...

The only problem is that I don't use them at all. Twitter I used to use years back for a short time before I stopped posting on there - I didn't think people wanted to hear about my boring life. Facebook I signed up for ages ago and then never used, except to add some friends and family. The tumblr I haven't made use of yet.

I really should use them. At least the twitter and the tumblr. I still have no interest in the facebook.

Percy May 18th, 2017 5:36 PM

Just a few. I have Facebook that I just use for communication and entertainment, 9GAG (its a cancerous community but sometimes the memes are dank), PC, and Reddit. I'm mostly active here and Reddit.

Sothis May 18th, 2017 6:46 PM

I use Twitter and Tumblr the most! Tumblr has a sketchy community but I just stay with around 100 close mutuals then anything.

pastelspectre May 18th, 2017 8:29 PM

oooo i have sort of a lot of social media? i use facebook the most. i use it constantly. the only annoying thing are the constant unnecessary updates and the 'real name' confirmation or whatever if someone reports your name as fake, which has happened to me a few times and it sucks. i have facebook, twitter (i only really use it for dan and phil though to be quite honest), tumblr (i shitpost on there a lot and post a lot of dan and phil/other youtubers), snapchat (though i barely use it and only have it to talk to certain friends who don't have other social media), discord if that counts, and i think that's it. the annoying thing about tumblr are annoying anon messages, and since they're on anon you can't really do much about it. oh well.
