Instagram

Who here has never used instagram? I've never even installed it, and when I tell people this they seem to think im some sort of serial killer..
Is this common?

>not using instagram to stalk qts

Social media is for women. Nothing more than cyber gossip platforms with a nice dose of propaganda. Sad so many people waste time with them.

Me. I have Nokia X1.

never used it

Actually know guys who ask other people around them in real life to like their pictures to boost their like count.

Myself, if its anything like chat-roulette or Facebook ild rather have my ass probed by a doctor.

It is stupid

How I am supposed to get Pakarina pics?
God bless Instagram and VK.

>They are sending crime. they are sending rape, AND child pedophiles

It's not a crime if it's legal.

I really wish we could gas you brown monkeys

But you can't, fucking cuck :D

>child pedophiles
U fuking wot m8?

I'm starting college in the fall

How necessary is a FB account? Is it likely I'll need to make one for classes

Idgaf about" muh socializing", but I've heard about some professors putting stuff on Facebook and wondered how commonplace it is

...

No idea what instagram is
Never used vine
Never seen Avatar, breaking bad, game of thrones
Haven't used facebook since 2009

I'm really out of touch with the world

never used instagram, twitter, reddit, or linked in or foursquare or yelp. i use jewbook to keep in touch with family. if they would just text me pictures, i wouldn't use it. but they have to get those (you)'s.

never used instagram nor kikebook
i have both set up with just a couple of pics from like 5 years ago because normie morons at my workplace literally believe it's a red flag not having them
just do the same and avoid shit with retarded """""""""""""""""""""""normal""""""""""""""""""""""" people

those normal people get drunk every weekend, one of my coworkers crashed his car last week drunk to boot and now he cant drive for 2 years, i know for a fact that another of my coworkers gets cheated by his gf like every week with another dude i know, and so on. """""""""""normal"""""""""" people is fucking retarded but yet you're the weird guy if you just dont care about some virtual social media bullshit

>How necessary is a FB account? Is it likely I'll need to make one for classes
Do not make one, an account with 7 friends looks worse than no account, you'll get an even worse rep in liberals minds.
Just say you simply dont trust facebook with your data

I believe it istagram is nigger-tier.

>mfw roasties at uni ask me for my twitter/facebook/instagram
>"I don't have those"
>they ask for my number
>give them my date of birth

I love being a /devilish/ autist and I'm not afraid to admit it.

>I've never even installed it, and when I tell people this they seem to think im some sort of serial killer..

That use to be Facebook.

I should maybe clarify

I have no interest In using fb for socializing but I have heard ppl talk about having to access class material over fb

I'm asking how likely it is I will be forced to join a fb group for my college classes

>access class material over fb
Not sure in US, here in Alberta most common unis and technical institutes have their own websites and systems for content, have NEVER heard of a professor using FB for anything, that is absolutely unprofessional!

Thats like if a professor didn't record any of his notes in his lectures but did full video recordings of every lesson but you could only access them with a pornhub premium account

Just got around to finally googling what the hell it is this past year. Learned enough to confirm my original assumption that it's nothing I should ever give a shit about.

I'm required for my work to have a Facebook account. I'm constantly shocked by the kikery I see there. Want to just post "faggit" there all day long, but have to maintain the account.

can you post pro trump stuff?

You realize that trump supporters are socially ostracized and labeled racist right?

here, i'm 22. Feel like it's a thing for the generation after me. I am on kikebook but haven't updated my kikebook in years.

Yes 160 facebook friends deleted me for that and im in fucking canada

I don't have Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat and tell people this. They have the same reaction like OP described.

I told them I don't waste time looking at what other people do nor am I an attentionwhore that begs for attention. I instead use LinkedIn and use Twitter for news updates.

I only got it because a chick I like has it.
I mostly just upload ferret photos but when I take a selfie she favs it.
Feels nice desu desu

>ferret photos
Ferrets are brotier

Hell yeah motherfucker
A shame they shit so fucking much, though.

Yeah.

can a ferret be let out of the house or will it never come back?

theyre cute but im afraid having one will double my dose of autism

>ferret be let out of the house
absolutely not

They're super near sighted so yes if they get lost, bye ferret.
You can walk them on a leash, or if you're stupid and daring just observe them closely.
They can get canine distemper from being out without the vaccine and die though, so it's really not worth it.

I only use snapchat to get nudes from roasties, that's about it

i think they are too small to be on leash.
i wont get a ferret then.. ;_;

do you send nudes tho?
so many teenagers end up committing suicide after regretting sending their nudes.

i never could understand that.
>send nude
>regret
>kill thy self

why?

Nah I walked mine on a leash a couple of times.
You use a harness for small animals.

Cousin used to work at Facebook

Ask me anything

Im 32 never used it or anything besides fb.

Age gap

I thought about it after I had a brief urge to follow someone I knew on it, but remembered that social media isn't healthy in general.
Also I have nothing to take pictures of and I could never shoot anything that wasn't on film.

I don't even have a smart phone, I will buy a new phone when my old one breaks, which might be never since it's a Nokia phone, I also don't have a facebook account or any social media account for that matter, you should see peoples look when I tell them that, btw these are the same people that looked at me funny for using the internet at all when it was new and for nerds only years ago, social media was a mistake.

Never installed it either.

Barely use any social media to be honest, only use Facebook messenger outwith calls / texts etc.

I have kikebook but almost nerver use it, only for messenger.
>no photos
>only thing my timeline says is "happy birthday!" several times
>~200 friends
Most people probably thinks I'm a autist, kek.
Instagram would be akward to start since only a few people would follow me.

How many retrievable pennies could you fit inside yourself at one time?

I have no social media. The closest I have is clicking on links that Sup Forums posts regarding trending topics on twitter.

Every time we have group works for uni, all 5 people agree to collaborate via Facebook, then get annoyed when I say that that is not possible, since I do not have nor intend to set up an account.

For some immensely infuriating reason, the weird looks primarily become when I explain my reasons for social media avoidance; namely poorly - and in some cases maliciously - structured regulations over data retention that undermine my right to privacy.

I am 22. I don't know of another person that does not have facebook, instagram or snapchat. Twitter isn't too popular though.

I have used it for group projects a few times in the past.

Our year has a group as well where people post things like past papers, or useful resources they have found. Also nearer exam time people post questions they are stuck on and others help them out.

In all honesty, it is quite useful. As far as trusting it with your information goes, all it has is my name and that I am a student. Set up a separate email for it, didn't give it my phone number, and it has one photo of me. Think a lot of people are getting paranoid, what is anyone going to do with that information?

U gay?

To many damaged port-a-pots and go-pros on Instagram. Do not want

Are people right to be paranoid about them stealing your data / archiving messages etc?

Don't have instagram, snapchat, facebook, kik, or fucking anything
>some bitch asked me about it in class and automatically assumed I was one of those pussies thats scared of companies having my data
>flatly told her I'm a loner who can't be fucked with it

I only use skype to talk to my brother

use your pic for dating sites
then they extort money from stupid women/homos
get married using your name.
open an account using your name.

the most dangerous thing you could do is post your full name, address and your birthday.
identity theft is more scary than you think.

are you a paki?

Me neither, user. The only social app I use is snapchat. Don't know why but I like it.

don't worry, facebook is dying

I don't have it. Feel like I should if only to see what my girlfriend is posting on there. My understanding is it's just cakes she's made.

Tell them to make a common class email id and a whatsapp group.

Never used it because it's owned by Facebook.

>Japan

I have a question for those who use it.
I'm an amateur photographer and i want to post my pictures of electric poles for the world to see, how well will my electric poles compete against pictures of beautiful women?

When people say: I don't use a FB but use Instagram, it's the same damn thing. Owned by the same company, ran by the same spooks, pushing the same agenda.

Facebook purchased Instagram when they realized people really want to 'share pictures' all day long. A huge differentiator in IG was the ability to tag where you were, since the original version of the app (Bourbon) was a Foursquare ripoff, and FB never had a product that successfully got people to share their location data. (Facebook places anyone? lol)

Facebook wanted this data. Location data along with 3-4 biomarkers is enough to create an incredibly accurate profile for marketers. Look into the Gotham software suite by Palantir (CIA) for how it can work. Since cookies have been dying, the next best ID would be things voluntarily given, or hard-rooted into your phone.

Instagram and Whatsapp allowed total control over people's data. They'd have your phone # through Whatsapp, bio-marker data through Facebook, and a real-time stream of your movements through the 'culture' of Instagram.

Here they are competing against Snapchat, who is positioning themselves as a clone of Asian-type services such as WeChat and Line. Snapchat is like the gossip-rag you always saw at the checkout counter. They appeal to the lowest of the low.

All of this ties back to the idea that Facebook and Google are allowed to exist. Even though they are breaking most tax laws, IP laws, privacy laws, the list goes on; they exist because the alphabet agencies find it far easier to tap into these networks than to create their own.

I know pretty much all the inside shit to these companies and their philosophical reasons for what they do. I recommend reading Eric Schmidt's The New Digital Age, which he co-wrote with fellow spook Jared ((((((Cohen)))))).

I can answer any questions about these youth-destroying apps.

> it's a man, baby

Never used, honestly I don't even know what it is.

Fucking kek

>>some bitch asked me about it in class and automatically assumed I was one of those pussies thats scared of companies having my data

Some how people find that ok....

social media is idiotic, i have never used any of it and never will

twitter seems to be popular everywhere except australia.

I think the only time roasties get annoyed by you not having facebook is when you try to act all high and mighty about it. I've been in that situation countless times and I just say "eh, it's just not for me" and they never seem to care. You dont have to explain to them the jewery and superficialness of it all to them, they probably know but dont care.

Don't have facebook, instagram, or whatever social media platforms. It's the most retarded form of sadness how humanity evolve around them.

Pretty much retarded and most of them like to talk about people what i really couldn't give a fuck.

However i like anonymity media platform because we all the same and we can talk about everything.

Yes, this is very common OP, at least where I live.

>train new qt3.14 coworker
>make sly jokes and get her laughing
>from her body language and hand placements on me i can tell she wants the dick
>one day she asks me to add her on "the gram" and kikebook
>sorry, i don't have either of those
>literally acts like confused, looks at me strangely, asks why
>don't really have time for that
>mfw now she thinks i'm a fucking weirdo and rarely talks to me at work

>go clubbing with a few friends
>talk to some decent looking girls, not 9/10 but decent
>clearly they're drunk and want to fuck me
>"liek omg can i add u on instagram???"
>i dont have one
>huh
>i dont have an instagram
>wow thats weird
>she starts talking to my friend instead

I don't know what it is with social media these days. I remember when the internet used to tell you NOT to post your personal information online.

Nope, never used it it's just a weird attention whoring thing that people go full slut on.
I mean Facebook isn't that great either but Instagram is just an absolute whorefest depends what you want I guess.

I use it for business/marketing tool. People who use it for anything else are boring faggots with nothing truly interesting going on so they celebrate the mundane or live vicariously through others that are virtue signalling or attempting to convince themselves and others that they are interesting and to be envied

This is pretty much me this just explains it's hard to find a intelligent woman nowadays.

Sup Forums is technically social media bud

I'm 32 and never used any social networking except for Instagram occasionally for work

>anonymous image board/forum
>Social media platform

Pick one and only one

I have no facebook, twitter, instagram, or even a smartphone.
Usually in college people are usually somewhat surprised at first, but don't really care.

>Anonymity media platform
>Social media platform

pick one

Never used it before two weeks ago.
Got pressured into making an account by an Australian qt i met in Croatia. Worth it though, some pictures are nice landscapes and scenery and some are hawt. Never posted anything but i can see why people like it.

Tfw banned from both

>whatsapp
the app is so bad it's poo in loo of apps

I only use Instagram to brag and show off to my former friends from high school about how successful my life is by showing them how much I travel and see cool things but realistically my life is shit and I wanna kill myself every day.

I use it to promote my job, sadly involving attention whoring and selfies. Otherwise it's cancer.

This girl I dated didn't have any social media, she only read fujoshit on wattpad
