Summary | Jeremy Corbyn has been using Snapchat for his campaign, but so far he's mostly been using the same old campaign trail images. In order to win the young vote, he could be doing a lot more. Also, Snapchat shouldn't be used for formality.

Summary | Interview with young people who decided to quit social media; they explain why. They mostly talk about deleting their Facebook account and how better they feel now. Some of them report feeling less depressed, happier, free, more productive, and enjoying meeting their friends face-to-face. Having a Facebook account was a lot of pressure for them; they didn't like the idea of having to report everything on the platform, to read articles they were not interested in, or to wait for other people's approval or "like".
