Last year, I found myself falling into an incredibly toxic trap: social media rabbit holes. Social media annoyed me, but I kept going back to it because I truly forgot what life was like before it. At 37 years old, Facebook and Instagram have been around for more than 1/3rd of my life and I’ve been using them for so long. But they’re designed to suck you in and become all that you base your world on. Several apps are like this: I’m pretty sure that many millennials could go on and on about how toxic dating apps are. I thought that all apps could be toxic, until I started to try out several alternatives. Since then, a lot has changed, but I’ve stuck with one more than the rest: VSCO.
