Social media

For many years I posted photos on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. Like so many photographers, I started with Flickr and Google+. I joined Instagram and Facebook about ten years ago. Recent developments however made me rethink my social media presence. I recently abandoned Instagram and Facebook in favor of Bluesky and Mastodon. Time will tell how I get on with those platforms. Truth be told I spent too much time scrolling and looking at unwanted content. I do still feel a need to share what I do and to ‘meet’ like-minded people who share a passion for the arts and other areas of interest like: science, history and technology. While both platforms are not yet ideal replacements, I hope that they will improve and succeed in becoming viable alternatives.
