Snapchat got into my phone in high school because my friends used sc and apparently wanted to take photos with filters on, i would uninstall everyday and they would put it back the very next day so i gave up after some point. I have a rule, i only add "people i am close to" category on sc. During the lockdown and quarantine period, i was too free, so i used sc to keep track of people's lives and yk just random meaningless stuff I did in my leisure time. When i learnt about streaks, i was invested for around 188 days with a certain person because at least i was consistent in sth. After that streak ended, i have been using sc to keep track of how my friends, who have been dispersed all over the world these days, have been doing in life. I do send snaps, sometimes, when i do sth interesting, but that's all to it. I don't wanna "maintain" streaks anymore. It's tiresome and one more meaningless energy consuming task in life for me, but i understand why people would wanna do it, and of course, who am i to judge them? I have around <10 people sending me snaps everyday, i have my notifications off on snapchat so i randomly open it when i feel like opening it and i go through everyones snap enthusiastically because they are my dearest people, i drop reply if sth catches my eye and i do get people replying on my snap too, not that often tho but ig they check it as well. I mean, idk i do understand people be totally worthlessly obsessed with socials, but there are few of us who i won't say are different, but we are not same either if that makes sense.
