Lfhard Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 None. I’ve never been on social media nor do I have the desire to be. I guess I’m old school. If I want you to know what I’m doing I will tell you personally not post it on a website. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoliDan Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I'll do reddit since it's anonymous and has interesting subs. The cigar subs are complete trash unfortunately. Although it is funny seeing all the people showing of their Cohiba that they bought in the beach in Mexico or the Bahamas. I joined Facebook back in 2008 and then deleted my account in 2009. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benfica_77 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I use reddit and instagram daily. I have been on Reddit since Digg went to crap and everyone migrated. It's not perfect but I enjoy it. FB - my usage has changed a lot I use it now more for groups, and communicating with older family that didn't migrate to Instagram. I don't like snapchat or tiktok or X(twitter). It's not my cup of tea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickVanWinkle Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 X - very passive (news and sports lurker) FB - passive - use for group and membership communication (neighborhood/local groups, golf club, CrossFit gym) and birthday reminders IG - keep in touch with old friends a bit here and there. Post every few years. LinkedIn - read industry news and admire feel good stories of many a corporate hero telling tales of how they've humbly saved the world 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSXCIGAR Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I have an OnlyFans. I know what you're thinking and yes, cigars are involved. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar Surgeon Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I'm on most of it, but it's the cost of doing cigar media. I actually quit Facebook back in the mid 2000's and it was everyone else complaining they couldn't contact me (I guess texting, email and phone calls are too complicated) that forced me back onto it. Reddit is the only one I really joined by choice, and I've been there 13 years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypots Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I use Insta and Fb to promote my work. These two platforms are a great way to get pictures of my art work out to people who follow me and are my social media friends. I often post a picture and sell a piece within hours. Social media is a great resource for creative people. I do not particularly like my personal life to windup on these platforms but I cannot control posted pictures that include me. I also moderate a Fb page for my ski club. Fb is a useful resource to publish information for a select group of people with a common interest. I do not read any news on social media and I look forward to the day. soon, that I am no longer obligated to moderate a Fb page. It’s a time suck and I’d prefer to waste that time here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
