I believe that some things like social media are not good or bad in themselves. But they can be used for good or bad in general.
Some DOs and DON’Ts
1. Disable all the notifications.
Ever Since I disabled all the notifications, I found that my life was a lot more peaceful

2. If something on social media upsets/enrages you then, turn off the screen and look around you.
What you are currently looking at is the real world.
The thing that was upsetting you were literally rendered pixels on your screen.

3. Know that the internet is not a fact-book.
Anyone can write anything.
Anyone can record a video.
Anyone can edit a picture.
Always fact check before believing in just one post and forwarding it.

4. If social media is the last thing that you check before sleeping and the first thing you check after waking up, then you are probably addicted to it.
Now about Instagram
1. DON’T ACCESS THE SEARCH SECTION
It is the black-hole of the things that you are most addicted to.

2. Mute anyone you think is negative/annoying.
3. Just post your picture and close the app.
I post my picture and immediately close the app. I check it after some time and reply to people after a while.

4. Delete the app after use and Re-Install it when you want to use it. (If you are overly addicted)
5. Try using it on a browser instead of the app.
This experience sucks.
6. Know that the Instagram models create unreal standards of beauty in the mind.

Twitter
1. Follow the people that you think can teach you something.
2. I mute/block anyone who always talks about politics and negativity.
3. Mute anyone who makes you annoyed/angry.
4. Don’t fight with anyone over tweets. It will just end up with you feeling bad.

Facebook
Honestly I am not much experienced with using Facebook.
I would suggest you to follow the same things as Instagram/Twitter or if possible follow the same things as Snapchat.

Social media is mainly about connecting to people, friends and family.
I wouldn't be using it as much if
1. I had friends I could be physically close to.
2. I was in a relationship.
3. There was no pandemic.
If you have 2 of the above points then reduce the social media usage.
