I, for one, am very active. I love posting pictures and making posts, as well as reading others' posts and seeing what they are upto. I am not addicted, because I use it in a self-aware manner, but I can't deny that a good chunk of my time goes into it. It's the best way to stay connected.


I know there's a flip side to it as well, because it leads to unhealthy comparisons with your peers and one-upmanship and this can be toxic. but I think it all depends on the user. If they are able to exercise control, it's all good.


Tell me about your experiences/thoughts on social media.

I’m a lurker. I have nothing interesting to share and not interested in other people enough to make posts and what not.

Use to be high on it. Ended Insta/facebook/Snapchat at end of 2019. In pandemic most people stopped hanging so no pics.


Now I just use to my twitter to discuss pop culture


I got a backthen account to upload of my kids pics

I know what shes saying. How many likes your pictures get. How often are you out and about at some place as opposed to just home. How you can make you story more interesting than other peoples

Thanks. So she is referring to Instagram lifestyle.


Definitely cannot relate to that feeling.
