I'm contemplating deleting social media after May (or possibly August). I'm making exceptions for 4 platforms (pi.fyi included!), but otherwise BeReal/Instagram/Snapchat/etc and most major platforms that people post on are all going away. The thing I'm hesitant about though is how I'm going to consistently nurture my long distance friendships in the absence of social media. While ik much of social media can be parasocial, I've been really deliberate w/ how I interact with friends, and go out of my way to collect cool reels/posts/info/etc for them just to show "hey I thought of you!". But if I'll be dropping off most platforms like??? Idk how could I begin to recreate that??? Outside of letter writing and check-in texts, (this is going to sound fucked up BUT) how can I keep nurturing long-distance friendships when there's no social media consistently keeping each other in our realm of focus?
