    I had insta but then I remembered I'm too lazy for that shit, so i havent opened it in quite a while but overall if I had to choose I would pick Twitter cuz it seems more chill and there are less influencer clowns

    Twitter is full of insane people with retarded and uneducated opinions but Instagram isn't much better. So neither.

    I use Twitter for giveaways and announcements, same for Insta. Using them for communication? Sorry, but I want to keep the few braincells I have left.

    I was at Twitter previously. It made me so negative that I'd spout negativity everywhere. After getting rid of it, I've become a far more positive person.

    Also after seeing r/instagramreality you know you shouldn't go there

    Depends on the end goal.
    Ex. An artist will likely use Instagram for posting their art, and Twitter for posting updates on their life, what's going on, having an art block etc.


    I'd say, you're likely to follow a person on twitter for what they are (what they say), and a person on Instagram for what they do (their content). Because on Instagram you can see all the posts of the person on their dash, whilst on twitter it gets buried under other stuff very quickly.
    -----
    Recreational stuff ( reading & art / hobbies ) - go Instagram
    News and updates on smth - go Twitter (EDIT: I don't mean news as in real world politics, I mean news like a weather forecast in your region, or news from your favorite art software account)
    -----
    Also, you might want to create a poll if you want to sum up ppl's opinions

    I use twitter to look at fan art, and that’s it. I recently got an instagram account for the sake of a promotion which the bots took over, but I haven’t used it at all.

    Instagram. It's easier to run an art blog there since on Twitter you have to depend on getting retweeted by a popular account to get any real exposure.

    Nether. If compare the two then I didn't hear about instagram politically censored anyone. But it owned by Facebook. And if compare Facebook and Twitter? Let them both rot in hell.

    The only social media I have are youtube and reddit. Is that even counted as social media?

    I use both, but only superficially. I usually post stuff on Insta every 6 months. And though i don't tweet at all, i like to look at the chaos which thrives there
