As with quitting anything addictive, the better mindset is: what do you get out of it, rather than what do you quit?
I quit Facebook many years ago and was recently confronted with a group of people who saw this as a great loss for me. But at this point, I can’t even say what gap it filled. Much how like sugar doesn’t really taste of anything after several months of no sugar.
