Yes, you can pick only one and have to stay loyal 😄 No switching! I’d love to know your answers as we’re a community of tech lovers and startuppy folks who connect with each other and our users/customers on a number of platforms.

Previously Twitter, but I’m liking LinkedIn more these days 👍 Better engagement and more depth in design discussions.

Instagram because I love photography. But it would be difficult! I use LinkedIn & Pinterest for everything

Reddit by far for community and knowledge sharing. There's too much self promotion on LinkedIn I feel - too many people posting not because they want to share but because they want to sell you something down the line. Twitter is ok, but it's extremely individualistic. Communities on reddit also seem to have a built in bs detector, which is super for filtering content.

If I had to choose only one social media platform to use for the rest of my life, I would choose LinkedIn. While I love the community and connection that Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter provide, LinkedIn is the platform that has consistently helped me grow both personally and professionally. Since joining LinkedIn, I have made countless connections with professionals in my industry and have even landed job opportunities through the platform. I have also gained valuable knowledge and insights through the numerous articles and discussions on LinkedIn. In addition to its professional focus, LinkedIn also allows for personal branding and the ability to showcase my skills and accomplishments. It is a place where I can build my online presence and network with others in my field. Ultimately, LinkedIn is the social media platform that has had the biggest impact on my career and personal growth, and for that reason, it would be the one I would choose to use for the rest of my life.

I would go with LinkedIn. I can learn so much from there and there is much valuable info while on Facebook it's more like entertaining.
Ekaterina Arbuzova
@david_sipos agree! It’s getting harder to separate valuable info from social media noise, the amount of content published daily is overwhelming!

@david_sipos Absolutly, It's the platform worth the time spend

It's Twitter!! Not for the content, it's fun too.
Ekaterina Arbuzova
@karthik_tatikonda I noticed that fun is the key reason why people choose Twitter in this thread :)

I really enjoy Instagram the most, but have been getting the hang of LinkedIn so I'm not 100% sure. If I pick LinkedIn, I definitely wouldn't doom scroll the way I do on IG. But, for IG I have so many online friends from the book community that doesn't really exist on LinkedIn.

Linkedin fever. It helps me to connect to the mindful professional that helps you to grow your skill set in various areas. You will have opportunities to get more sales opportunities. You can convert more and more clients for your business. You can have new business ideas. You can have new product ideas.

LinkedIn. I joined back in the day when you had to get an invitation to join the platform... relationships mattered more than anything. Now, random people can send connection requests without being in your group or knowing your personal email. If LinkedIn had a face-lift like Twitter, I'd stick with it as my only platform.

I’d say tweeter. It might be an unpopular view right now in light of what’s going on with this network but I’m sure things’ll get better soon! Every social network has its level of noise but tweeter gives you a unique opportunity to interact with lots of like-minded people at ease.

I would say here, youtube. A lot of useful information possibly to find out there, learning. Different communities are formed there of interest. But the policy and blocking from the YouTube administration are far from always fair ... but nevertheless, still possible to use. And I wish supplement with a tool called top4smm for youtube promotion. There is also Telegram and Bastyon for specific purposes.

Reddit. It’s like exploring the world of information with a bunch friends.

LinkedIn I think. But I wouldn’t mind not using any at all.
Ekaterina Arbuzova
@abid_unnisa I feel you. As a person who works with socials, sometimes I have bad days and wish they didn't exist 😂

If I could use only one social media for the rest of my life, I would choose Twitter. It's a great platform for staying up-to-date on current events, connecting with others, and sharing ideas. Plus, with tools like Tweetmonk (https://tweetmonk.com/), it's easy to manage and optimize your Twitter presence.

Twitter. Musk is draining the swamp and it's a good source of information and wisdom.

Twitter, of course! Nothing can make me laugh harder than tweets!

@rakshitha_kamatam I love YT to bits and pieces, but I didn't perceive it as a networking platform. For me, YT is more about discovering useful information ( and watching funny shorts, sometimes🙃)
Emiliano Vittoriosi
For me would be Twitter, for the way of communication
