With Elon Musk buying Twitter, everyone’s talking about social media and the toxic HELLSCAPE it can be sometimes. So here’s a question . . .
Overall, would you say social media has been mostly good for the world, or more bad than good?
Someone polled 1,400 Americans, and most said it’s been BAD of us.
. . . 54% think it’s had a negative effect on society in general
. . . 25% think it’s done more good than bad
. . . and 21% aren’t sure.
Also, only 36% of us think conversations on social media are “generally healthy.”
But opinions like that haven’t stopped us from using it. 93% use social media regularly . . . 74% said at least once a day . . . and 55% said multiple times a day. Only 5% of us use it less than once a month.
