Yep, if i want contact with people I will sms, call or email. I keep a small email list of close friends and we communicate better through this channel than any other and it's not platform dependent. All the people who don't engage through these more traditional methods I probably wasn't going to have any meaningful contact with anyway so nothing is really lost by moving away from a dedicated social platform.

It's become a circlejerk:
10 years ago having a FB account was cool. Once everyone was on FB then saying you'd deleted your account and gone off the grid was cool and all the people still using it were sheep. Now it's cool to say you're still using it and that everyone who deleted their account is a jerk for mentioning it.
We're just going around in circles.
It's a useful tool, a time pit for others but being critical of someone because they do/don't use it is pretty weak.
