> The only reason people really use it is for validation

> everybody uses it to stay in touch nowadays

If you and your friends are successful in using Snapchat to stay in touch then it clearly has more uses than as a tool to gain validation.

IMO Snapchat is fine in moderation. I could see it being an issue if you're the type to post stories every hour of the day or if you go out of your way to maintain streaks with people who aren't important in your life.

If you're not making money out of it, delete it, it's useless. Social media is for producers. Consumers use it for dopamine spikes.

If by staying in touch you mean sharing memes/streaks, you're on the wrong end.

I feel like age matters in this question.

I’m 24. And yeah I just stopped using it. I think older people will say it’s useless which I agree. But to younger people its greatly used. I say keep it if you’re young. Like 21 and below or in college.

These comments are dumb.

Girls have much less resistance to giving you their snapchat, which can be a good bridge towards more personal interaction. Keep it, but don't just look at stories all day lmao.

HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Snapchat is a female validation tool. interacting with a girl on their makes you a source of validation for her. It also increases your engagement is through a computer screen as opposed to seeing each other in person.

women have all kinds of thirsty bettas chasing after them orbiting on Snapchat don't join their ranks.

When you meet a girl communicate with her through her phone number. If she doesn't want to do that then she isn't that interested in you.

I keep it just so I can receive nudes from the girls I keep around. Not for any type of validation and it’s the only social media I have tied to my real name.

Are you under 25? Do you actively spin plates (or want to?)

Keep that shit & ignore other people's opinions and praising words like "validation only, meet up with her etc etc).

I use snapchat for keeping up w/ a few friends and snapping hoes.

That being said, I don't ask a girl for her snapchat in person or dating apps. I ask for her #, send logistic texts, and then ask for snap/socials.

If you have an interesting life/goals/hobbies that you like to showcase, there is no reason to delete social media. If you use these apps aimlessly just to kill time, go lift.
