Like it or not, social media is essential in today’s society. While it can have its cons, the pros certainly outweigh them. Along with staying connected with family and friends, social media is a great way to meet new people and stay up-to-date on topics of interest. Further, if you have a business or service to offer, it’s one of the most effective marketing methods.
Unfortunately, there are so many social sites and apps available now that it’s impossible to keep up with them all; you’ll need to pick the ones that are best for your needs and go from there. To help you with that, we’ve created an intriguing list of social apps to try on your favourite Android device.
Yes it is probably better to do your family stuff away from a social network, as you’ll discover if and when you want to change social networks, your family stays stuck where they are. With that in mind, trying out a few alternatives can be a lot of fun and very interesting (just remember to block the trolls as you get them everywhere).
Also, it is worth trying out alternative apps for a social network, for example for Reddit try Boost for Android, or Apollo for iOS. Not only is the presentation often better, but they listen to users and include extra functionality, and of course often also have less tracking by the social network itself.
