How much time do you think you have spent on FT?

[blue blood]

So after watching The Social Dilema i have decided to cut back on my use of social media as id guess 80% of it is a waste of time.  This got me thinking how many hours, days, weeks, months or years do you think you have spend on here and how much of an impact has it had on your life? 

 

I would say since signing up around 14 years ago, i may have spent about 6 months to 1 year of my life on here.

Way too much!!

But on a side note, I do not have Facebook, and I only occasionally view Twitter so rarely use any other forms of social media.

I've deactivated Facebook as it's a fvcking pile of sh*t, Instagram is full of attention-seeking narcissists, and Twitter is just toxic. These three sites get very little of my attention so it affords more time to read the crap spouted on here. 

 

My ratio of posts vs time spent on FT is very low, TBH. I pretty much have a tab open when I'm working all day, then I usually log in once every one or two hours when I'm not.

 

It's a relatively small, but good community of generally intelligent people (there are exceptions) and we all have something in common even if Gen Chat gets a bit arsey sometimes.

 

Plus, receiving rep points makes my dead soul feel alive.

[StanSP]

Not enough. 

[Benguin]

A lot.

 

I don’t think I post that much but come on two or three times a day to enjoy the hypocrisy in politics based threads and enjoy the joke and phunny photos thread.

Another Col City post I’ll never get time back from reading.

Pretty much this. Don’t use Twitter either except if linked from here or when reading an article elsewhere. I usually find Twitter threads difficult follow & just hate the format, not to mention the content.

Me too. I rarely contribute on the live matchday thread or even read what is being said because whenever I have it's been, by and large, excruciating.

Similar. This and YouTube are my almost sole portals into social media.

 

Still too much though.

It's not even my bloody team!

I don't time it and I'm not bothered how long I spend on FT.  It's the only social media I do (no Facebook or Twitter) and I'm happy to be part of a community of City fans.

Yeah in my eyes a forum is a bit more communal compared to the social media like instagram and facebook. More of a community feel rather than look at my fat arse do squats in pulled up leggings wedgying me.

[Guest Bilo]

I used to spend far too many hours on here.

 

Not sure why I seldom use the site nowadays.
