I've found it mostly comes down to how you use it. I mainly follow automotive and sports pages. I try not to follow people who I don't know well and/or don't care about. The one thing you can't escape is the littany of advertisements for bullshit products.

Most people get caught into the trap of following "influencers" who make a living on posting bs relentlessly. I live near LA too so there's a lot of these types. Dudes will stare at dumb chicks all day on Insta and boost their egos, while simultaneously feeling unhappy because they aren't with that girl.
Agreed 100%.

I'm not making an account though. If someone doesn't want to date me because I don't have 1 of their preferred forms of social media (I still have FB and Snapchat so I'm not a totally unlisted creep), they can politely go fuck themselves. Their loss. You don't want to date chicks like that anyway. They would probably be the ones scrolling through it during the entire date.
