: My best friend Chas dropped her social media five or six years ago. She was LJ first, and then later FB and then Twitter. She didn't get stalkers and such. She got lots of hate, though, because she calls things how she sees them, which many, especially men (because she's "just a woman"), dislike immensely. Plus, the Daily Misery Inundation didn't help. So she ditched everything but IG, and that's mainly for pupstalking in NYC and showing live theatre programs. She's happier now, too.
