Muting people on social media is fast and free and will change your life

Experts say setting boundaries online creates a healthier digital environment and helps preserve your mental wellbeing

I don't generally believe in life hacks. As much as I'd love to imagine that one easy tweak could resurface my life like it's a cracked tennis court, time and experience have shown me that positive change usually comes slowly and incrementally.

But there is one hack I fully believe in. It's fast and free, and will instantly change your life for the better: just mute people who annoy you on social media.
