Alternative to Facebook and Twitter?

I will be the first to admit, I have an addiction to social media. I’m not comfortable on either of those platforms Facebook and Twitter, in light of hacking by Russia and North Korea. I know many have abandoned blogs, I have too, maybe I will have better luck maintaining this without all the nastiness that Facebook and Twitter have become. It is my hope to just keep in touch using this blog. It is worth a try to me.
